C) alternately increase and decrease
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.

Updrafts and downdrafts alsooccur as part of the turbulence that is created when air passes over topographic barriers such as mountains. ... Updraftscharacterize a storm's early development, during which warm air rises to the level where condensation begins and precipitation starts to develop.
When an object is moving with uniform circular motion, the centripetal acceleration of the object d. is directed toward the center of motion.
