Question

A spaceship departs from Earth for the star Alpha Centauri, which is 4.37 light-years away. The spaceship travels at 0.70c. 1) What is the time required to get there as measured by a passenger on the spaceship

Answer 1

Answer:

Time = 6.243 years = (1.97 × 10⁸) s

Explanation:

Speed = (Distance)/(Time)

Time = (Distance)/(Speed)

Distance = 4.37 light years = 4.37 × c × years

Time = (4.37 c.years)/(0.7c)

Time = 6.243 years = (1.97 × 10⁸) s

Hope this Helps!!!
