Explanation Given info: The speed of spaceship with respect to sun is 69000 m/s and the time for which this speed maintained is 1.0 y . Explanation: Write the expression for time dilation. Δ t = t 0 1 − v 2 c 2 Here, Δ t is the dilated time t 0 is the proper time v is the speed of the spaceship c is the speed of light Substitute 1.0 y for t 0 , 69000 m/s for v and 3 × 10 8 m/s for c to find the dilated time Δ t . Δ t = 1
