Consequences Of The Theory Of Relativity

Question 0

Time dilation

Answer 0

The time measured by an outside observer of a moving object is dilated compared to the time measured by an observer inside the moving object, at rest relative to the object

Question 1

Simultaneity

Answer 1

Events that are simultaneous to one observer are not necessarily simultaneous to another observer
According to the first postulate that states that all inertial systems are equal, what one observer experiences is just as valid as what the second experiences. Both are right

Question 2

Length contraction

Answer 2

Length is contracted for an outside observer looking at a moving object compared to the length measured by an inside observer at rest relative to the moving object

Question 3

Mass increase

Answer 3

Mass measured by an outside observer is bigger than the mass measured by an observer that is inside observer, at rest relative to the moving object
