Answer:
<em>I must travel with a speed of 2.97 x 10^8 m/s</em>
Explanation:
Sine the spacecraft flies at the same speed in the to and fro distance of the journey, then the time taken will be 6 months plus 6 months
Time that elapses on the spacecraft = 1 year
On earth the people have advanced 120 yrs
According to relativity, the time contraction on the spacecraft is gotten from
= 
where
is the time that elapses on the spacecraft = 120 years
= time here on Earth = 1 year
is the ratio v/c
where
v is the speed of the spacecraft = ?
c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s
substituting values, we have
120 = 1/
squaring both sides of the equation, we have
14400 = 1/
14400 - 14400
= 1
14400 - 1 = 14400
14399 = 14400
= 14399/14400 = 0.99
= 0.99
substitute β = v/c
v/c = 0.99
but c = 3 x 10^8 m/s
v = 0.99c = 0.99 x 3 x 10^8 = <em>2.97 x 10^8 m/s</em>
C. Three isotopes of the same element because the number of electrons and protons remain the same but the number of neutrons in the nucleus are different. This means that the isotopes have different masses to each other but the same chemical properties.
