ANSWER.no cause they have to be going a the same speed and I doubt that are gonna go at the same speed.
Answer:
1 astronomical unit is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun; approximately 150 million km. At its closest point, Saturn is 9 AU, and then at its most distant point, it's 10.1 AU. Saturn's average distance from the Sun is 9.6 AU. We have written many articles about Saturn for Universe Today.
Explanation:
To develop this problem it will be necessary to apply the concepts related to the frequency of a spring mass system, for which it is necessary that its mathematical function is described as
Here,
k = Spring constant
m = Mass
Our values are given as,
Rearranging to find the spring constant we have that,
Therefore the spring constant is 1.38N/m
Velocity increases with speed
First of all, you didn't tell us WHO measured the "10 years".
If it was the people on Earth, then 10 years passed according to them.
If it was 10 years on the space traveler's clock, then the clock in the
OTHER place, like on Earth, is subject to the relativistic 'time dilation'.
If the clocks are moving relative to each other, then the time interval measured
on either clock is equal to the interval measured on the other clock, divided by
√(1 - v²/c²) .
You said that v/c = 0.85 .
v²/c² = (0.85)² = 0.7225
1 - v²/c² = 1 - 0.7225 = 0.2775
√(1 - v²/c²) = √0.2775 = 0.5268
If one clock counts up 10 years, then the other one counts up
(10years) / 0.5268 = <em>18.983 years </em>
I believe that's the way to do this, and I'll gladly take your points,
but let me recommend that you get a second opinion before you
actually take off on your 10-year interstellar mission.
