The faster you are moving, the slower time moves! Trace is here to discuss time dilation, and how it’s so monumental that scientists were able to measure it in a lab! Read More: Time dilation measured at 40 percent of the speed of light - in a lab arstechnica.com/science/2014/09/time-dilation-measured-at-40-percent-of-the-speed-of-lightin-the-lab/ “Einstein is most famous for general relativity, which is really a theory of gravity.” Time Dilation www.phy.olemiss.edu/HEP/QuarkNet/time.html “It turns out that as an object moves with relativistic speeds a "strange" thing seems to happen to its time as observed by ‘us’ the stationary observer (observer in an inertial reference frame).” Test of Time Dilation Using Stored Li+ Ions as Clocks at Relativistic Speed journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.120405 Synopsis: Relativity is Right on Time, Again physics.aps.org/synopsis-for/10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.120405 “Special relativity predicts that a twin in a high-speed rocket, as viewed by his Earth-bound brother, will have a slower-ticking clock.” Real-World Relativity: The GPS Navigation System www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~pogge/Ast162/Unit5/gps.html “People often ask me ‘What good is Relativity?’ It is a commonplace to think of Relativity as an abstract and highly arcane mathematical theory that has no consequences for everyday life. This is in fact far from the truth.” How Special Relativity Works science.howstuffworks.com/science-vs-myth/everyday-myths/relativity10.htm “In order to attempt to prove this theory of time dilation, two very accurate atomic clocks were synchronized and one was taken on a high-speed trip on an airplane.” Hafele and Keating Experiment hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/relativ/airtim.html “During October, 1971, four cesium atomic beam clocks were flown on regularly scheduled commercial jet flights around the world twice, once eastward and once westward, to test Einstein's theory of relativity with macroscopic clocks.” Time Dilation Calculator www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=time+dilation+calculator ____________________ DNews is dedicated to satisfying your curiosity and to bringing you mind-bending stories & perspectives you won't find anywhere else!
