I Question about gravity and speed of light

[HallsofIvy]

Twin paradox says one of the twin will be younger if he is traveling at the speed high enough to notice time dilation.

No, it doesn't. It says that each twin will see the other twin as younger. The only "paradox" occurs when you arrange for the two twins to be again together and motionless with respect to each other. And then which is younger will depend upon exactly how they returned to that situation.

Travelling relative to what? It is meaningless to speak of any speed without saying what it is relative to - remember that as far as you in teh space lab are concerned, you are at not moving at all, it's just that if you look out the window you might see other things moving by relative to you.

Nugatory... No question is meaningless.
Technically he would be relative to "something" and that something is the light in his cosmological traveling lab. Light would be moving in all directions inside the lab. The reason he will be moving slower to relative light speed and space is because he is simply moving away from light at half the speed of light. Light will have to bounce off the object he sees then also have to catch up to his eyes at half its normal speed. (light speed travels 50% slower in the direction he moves away from it) remember that light travels at 186,000 mph, but from his new perspective it now tops at 93,000 mph (which is still astonishingly faster than sounds average speed of 760 mph) meaning that his interactions and perception wouldn't to much different from normal. MY QUESTION IS... IS SPEED AND TIME INTERTWINED?!.

This is entirely incorrect. As measured by the person aboard the station, the light moves at c, not at 1/2 c. You cannot define velocities relative to light and have any meaningful statement, as light moves at c for ALL inertial observers, no matter what their velocities relative to each other are.

 

[Jaami M.]

ok... then what made lead actor in movie 'Interstellar' look younger than rest of the universe. Am I making sense?

From the theories I've learned of and from my understanding it's because of the black hole he entered. Now whether it's possible to survive a black hole or not, when he left it he was in the future. This happened because of how time-space Bends and warps around the black hole, because of its Immense Gravitational Field, making "time" also warp. Ultimately making your perceptive relevance to other humans appear to move slower. From my understanding, if he ENTERED a BLACK HOLE, he should be teared limb from mole is to atom! Or at least his daughter should be long gone, and humans should be terraforming Mars and be fishing on Jupiters moon Europa by now! But remember that interstellar is just a movie. There are so many theories of black holes, from creation of another universe to space travel.

Your completely right, sorry about that. But the argument is still valid via argument correct?

What? I don't know what you're asking.

Yes, the planet they landed on was close to the supermassive black hole, so they experienced a great deal of time dilation relative to the Earth. So much so that something like 20-30 years passed on Earth while they only experienced a few hours.

From my understanding, if he ENTERED a BLACK HOLE, he should be teared limb from mole is to atom!

Not for supermassive black holes. For those the tidal forces near the event horizon are low enough to allow passage without pulling you apart.

 

[Jaami M.]

I'm speaking of when he Entered the black hole, not orbiting near it. (going inside the tesseract (from the black hole( on his own)))

You can certainly enter a supermassive black hole without being torn apart by gravity, as I said. What happens beyond the even horizon is unknown.

That's true.

No; in the movie Interstellar the lead actor goes very close to the horizon of a black hole and stays there for a while, but he never enters the hole (never goes below the horizon). If he had, he wouldn't have been able to come back.

Everyone... please watch that h this clip and tell me of I'm wrong...-_- he Entered the Black hole...

Or is that not a black hole? Is it just a wormhole or? What is it

 

[phinds]

It is made up movie nonscience

 

[Jaami M.]

But remember non-fiction science films become a reality. Flying (planes), digital screens, super computers in our hands, traveling to the moon etc.. It good to know what is to know.

He's traveling through a wormhole, which is not the same as a black hole. There are mathematical solutions of the Einstein Field Equation that describe wormholes, but they require "exotic matter", which is not believed to be physically possible to obtain.

non-fiction science films become a reality.

Interstellar is not a "non-fiction science film". It's fiction.

Lol sorry, I've had 5 hours sleep, I just found this website last night and I've been on it ever since. There's not many people that I can talk to about physics. So when I do it's like coming out of water taking a huge breath in. Lol I should take a break

You only have to go up to 0:20. But Cooper did travel inside a black hole(Gargantua)

No, you have misunderstood somehow. That is NOT what it says.

No they don't. Hollywood is not a research lab.

 

[Nugatory]

And as phinds mentioned above, Interstellar is science fiction, not science fact.
Discussions of it do not belong here in the relativity forum, although there is at least one long thread about the movie in the General Discussion section where non-science is sometimes discussed.

This thread is closed.
