Answer to Question 1

I, III, V
All three of these statements are true. Jack is older. Each believes that the other's clock is ticking slower during the one-way outbound trip.

Answer to Question 2

The objects have the same rest mass, are moving with the same speed, and have the same amount of potential energy. The direction of travel does not affect the mass-energy.
