Answer:
Cosmic ray's frame of reference: 99,875 years
Stationary frame of reference: 501,891 years
Explanation:
First of all, we convert the distance from parsec into metres:
The speed of the cosmic ray is
where
is the speed of light. Substituting,
And so, the time taken to complete the journey in the cosmic's ray frame of reference (called proper time) is:
Converting into years,
Instead, the time elapsed in the stationary frame of reference is given by Lorentz transformation:
And substituting v = 0.98c, we find:
