:

35 minutes (See proof below)

Explanation:

Given

Velocity = v = 0.99c

Time = ∆t =5 minutes

Lorentz Factor is the factor by which time, length, and relativistic mass change for an object while that object is moving and it is given as

y = 1/√(1 - v²/c²) where v = velocity = 0.99c and c = time constant = 1

So,

y = 1/√(1 - (0.99c)²/c²)

y = 1/√(1 - 0.9801c²/c²)

y = 1/√(1 - 0.9801)

y = 1/√0.0199

y = 7.088812050083359

Calculating her catnap;

Catnap Time = ∆t * y

= 5 minutes * 7.088812050083359

= 35.44406025041679 minutes

= 35 minutes ----- Approximated
