In 2000, a 20-year-old astronaut left Earth to explore the galaxy; her spaceship travels at 2.5 x 10^8 m/s. She returns in 2040. About how old will she appear to be?

42.11 years old

Explanation:

Given that:

In 2000, a 20-year-old astronaut left Earth to explore the galaxy; her spaceship travels at 2.5 x 10^8 m/s. She returns in 2040

To find her age we use:

Δtm is  time interval for the observer stationary relative to the sequence of

events = 2040 - 2000 = 40 years

Δts is is the time interval for an observer moving with a speed v relative to the  sequence of event

v = velocity = 2.5 x 10^8 m/s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Here age in 2000 is 20 year, therefore when she appear she would be 20 year + 22.11 year = 42.11 years old

the answer would be c. motion and direction

i hope this : )

you go to your settings preference and in the end youll see sth that says "i want to delete my acc" click on it and u'll acc will be deleted but u have to wait.
