Hi Adrie
One DERIVATION OF LORENTZ-EINSTEIN TRANSFORMS is about time dilation.
It works like this:
An object moving through the space with a certain percentage of the
light speed contracts the distance
The time dilation =SQRT(1-(percentage of lightspeed^2))
I haven't learned JAVA math's yet but you can try it easily with your
favourite calculator.
ex:
Speed (% of liLength contraction (%)
10 99,5
50 86,6
70 71,41
90 43,59
91 41,46
95 31,22
97 24,31
99 14,11
99,1 13,39
99,5 9,99
99,7 7,74
99,9 4,47
99,91 4,24
99,95 3,16
99,99 2,45
99,991 1,34
99,995 1
99,999 0,45
100 (The Light 0
This means that to the light itself (and smaller massless things), there
is no space at all. How far will they reach?
