Question

One of a pair of 26-year-old twins takes a round trip through space while the other twin remains on Earth. The traveling twin moves at a speed of 0.93c for a total of 35 years, according to Earth time.a) Assuming that special relativity applies for the entire trip (that is, neglect accelerations at the start, end, and turnaround), what are the twins' ages when the traveling twin returns to Earth? B)Assuming that special relativity applies for the entire trip (that is, neglect accelerations at the start, end, and turnaround), what are the twins' ages when the traveling twin returns to Earth? C)On the trip, how far from Earth did the traveling twin go according to the Earth twin?

Answer 1

a) 3.s t=12.8645 y is age t 26 12.8645 b) 2 c)
