I don't get it, wait , I do get it, wait, I dont.
So I don't get it, it stil sounds like fiction to me. It sounds really cool, but I think maybe time does not slow down for objects traveling very fast. Yea?

not long ago it was impossible for man to fly.
ofcourse it is possible. man has just scratched the surface of discovery and evolution.

Special relativity is a theory of the structure of spacetime. It was introduced in Albert Einstein's 1905 paper "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies". Special relativity is based on two postulates which are contradictory in classical mechanics; which one of them states: The speed of light in a vacuum is the same for all observers, regardless of their relative motion or of the motion of the source of the light. -from Wikipedia
I think that answered your teacher's question

How many times do I have to say this: Look at Maxwell's equations.

i just wrote a 500 character text and it was not posted :)) i will rewrite it now: that clock is a simple instrument wich as well explained can be slowed down. i have this example i want you to think about. if you want to measure a length of 10 feet with a 1 feet object you will measure.. 10 feet :). but if the object actualy measures 2 feet you will measure 5 feet. your object does not change the fact that the real length 10 feet. thanks anyway for reading this. :)

i am not saying that the theory of relativity is not true. i don't have much knolege in that area, i am only saying that the instrument used for a measurement does not alter the mater or time itself. :)

my teacher wants to know what will happen if you can travel at the speed of light in a space ship then turn on your headlights, would the speed of the headlights be 2x the speed of light? |
