What is the speed of the traveler ?

[kevinlatt]

if an object is speeding away from another what is the speed of the traveler if the time dialtion is 1 day = 1000 years. how do i calculate this ?

Is "the traveler" one of the two objects? (I.e. are you asking for the speed of one of the objects in an inertial frame where the other object is stationary). Is this a homework question? Do you know the formula for time dilation?

Hi kevinlatt ! Welcome to PF!

Show us what formulas you know, and what calculations you've tried so far, and then we'll know how to help!

no this is not home work. no i do not know the time dilation formula. yes the traveller is one of the objects. it is a theory idea i am personally interested in and ihave no way to prove it. can you help

Hi kevinlatt!

Time dilation at speed v:

$$\sqrt{1\ -\ v^2/c^2}$$ ​

Or just use this:

BTW, your answer will be more a matter of how many 9's there are in the decimal fraction of c (I get at least 11).
