Like.
This is wrong. He may compute this, but it is not what he sees. Both observers see the other clock run slow when they see the clocks... -
spacecadet2563 reacted to FactChecker's post in the thread Undergrad The paradox of symmetrical time dilation with Like.
Start from scratch. It's about how people in an inertial reference frame synchronize their clocks at different locations: 1) Something...

spacecadet2563 reacted to Ibix's post in the thread Undergrad The paradox of symmetrical time dilation with Like.
Seen in terms of geometry, it is closely analogous to two cars driving at equal speeds ##v## down straight roads that make an angle...

spacecadet2563 reacted to Nugatory's post in the thread Undergrad The paradox of symmetrical time dilation with Like.
You have overlooked the relatively of simultaneity. Say that observer A is located on earth, B on the ship, and both agree that the...

spacecadet2563 reacted to Hill's post in the thread Undergrad The paradox of symmetrical time dilation with Like.
Exactly. Something happens during the turning around. B is not an inertial frame when that happens.
-
spacecadet2563 replied to the thread Undergrad The paradox of symmetrical time dilation.How? Why? He sees the Earth's clock moving slowly relative to his. The reverse would be true. Unless something happens when he turns around.
-
spacecadet2563 replied to the thread Undergrad The paradox of symmetrical time dilation.B is the traveler. He is supposed to be traveling into the Earth's future. From the Earth perspective. Apparently not from his. Which is it?
-
spacecadet2563 posted the thread Undergrad The paradox of symmetrical time dilation in Special and General Relativity.If someone stationary on Earth watches a vehicle leaving Earth very fast he sees that time is dilating for that vehicle. Any clocks he...

spacecadet2563 reacted to Nugatory's post in the thread Undergrad Einstein's time formula with Like.
That’s how the math tells you that you’re misapplying it. The formula is only valid for ##v\lt c##.

Event has a technical meaning in relativity. It is not one event, but it is one process that does not involve an evolution of the photon...

spacecadet2563 replied to the thread High School Light & Time.Its all really one event not two would be a safe assumption.

spacecadet2563 reacted to Nugatory's post in the thread Undergrad Photons & Time: t=0 What? with Like.
To quote Einstein: Time is what a clock measures. At first glance this statement appears to be no more than a clever sound bite…. But...
-
If you want to simulate what a photon does, then at the moment that the "emission" occurs, you need to capture all the information about...
-
There are two types of time in relativity: proper time and coordinate time. This statement is not true for either. Indeed, emission and...
