In the context of special relativity and time dilation, if we consider two synchronized clocks, one stationary on Earth and the other on a spacecraft traveling at a significant fraction of the speed of light, how would the time difference between these two clocks change if the spacecraft suddenly accelerates to near-light speed and then decelerates back to its original speed? Additionally, how would the twin paradox be resolved in this scenario considering both the principles of relativity and the effects of acceleration and deceleration on the traveling clock?
