Lab 8 Part 3 PHET Wave Interface simulation. I am having trouble with this part of the lab.
Mick and Rick are twins born on Earth in the year 2175.  Rick grows up to be an Earth-bound robotics technician while Mick becomes an intergalactic astronaut.  Mick leaves the Earth on his first space mission in the year 2200 and travels, according to his clock, for 10 years at a speed of 0.75c.  Unfortunately, at this point in his journey, the structure of his ship undergoes mechanical breakdown and the ship explodes.  How old is Rick when his brother dies?
