Problem

a. How much time elapses on Carla's stopwatch with each revolution? Given constants: ## Spin Cycle Cosmonaut Carla is preparing for the Intergalactic 5000 race. She practices for her race on her handy race track of radius RR, carrying a stopwatch with her. Her racecar maintains a constant speed vv during her practices. For this problem, you can assume that v>0.1cv>0.1 c, where cc is the speed of light.
