Hai ,I am new to the forum.
I have some basic questions regarding the same old twin paradox.
Twin A stays at Earth and Twin B is the traveller.
from the A,s frame we all agree that Time is dilated for B because it is moving(relative to A) near to the speed of light.
Now switch on to B,s frame.from B,s frame we have to agree that A is moving(relative to B-in opposite direction).So obviously,A,s time also should be dilated as per SR.
Do this dilation cancell each other ,and they will be of same age when they meet again?.
This is a thought experiment only.So i am expecting some logical answers (not mathematical)which can help me to get out of my ignorance.
