Let the A and B clocks be together; they resemble in all aspects each other, so you can tell that the hands of these two clocks are always at the same position with respect to each other. That is, if you put them in a bag, shake it, and randomly get any of them out of the bag, you can't tell if...- WilliamMGiraldo

High School Common Time: Explaining Einstein's Definition
Hi. Thanks to everybody for replying, I'm very excited to learn this topic. You are right, but I'm not only studying the theory; I'm also studying the man. Exactly! But, then, why not just say that at every moment, both clocks display the same value? That would satisfy t_B-t_A=t'_A-t_B and...- WilliamMGiraldo

High School Common Time: Explaining Einstein's Definition
Hi. Thanks for letting me ask this question. It is a stupid one. I'm a newbie at relativity theory, and I'm reading On the electrodynamics of moving bodies, By Einstein, A. He associates time with space, and tells us that you can measure the "time" of an event if you are in the coordinates of...- WilliamMGiraldo
