When is the driver's seatbelt a catapult?

[BUSHWHACKER]

think thats the other way around

and i dont believe that time slows down the faster you go anyway.
them clocks work by picking up a frequency, the movement of the plane, the landing, them moving the clocks around, and vibrations we couldnt even feel would effect the timekeeping of them.
i bet if they put the stationary clock on something that vibrates for the whole duration of the test, they would find that they get different results.

Nope! Time is relative.


What happens when you lob a ball in the air when you're on a fast moving train?

Out of the window???

well, it cheered me up!!

the guard takes it away from you because you're annoying the other passengers

you are right dude,got it round the wrong way,it would slow the faster it was accelerated.the point is relativity is relative to the observer.if you could accelerate a space ship to near light speed,and then back to the earth,the observers and the space ships "time " would have both moved normally relative to the observer,but to the different groups ,for instance the stationery group,time would have advanced much furher than for the near light speed group,who although time relative to them would have passed the same ,would have "aged " during this relative time period less.

dude even einstein neede help with the maths(lots of triple integrals and lorentz transformations) and we are still only vaguley aware of space time ramnifications

as for the clocks being shook,that was not a consideraion i admit,but the science behind it was sound.for example as a massive object has a greater gravitational pull,if you hung a plum bob (no not that one ,a real one) near a mountain for instance,it would tend toward the heavier mass.this is just another example of time space and gravity being inextricably linked

dude my brain hurts

Inextricably.


Good word, I'll wright it down and use it later.

exactly!!!

to the person on the train the balls velocity is relative to to the observer.to someone on a train platform,the ball is travelling fast

[captain_chaos]

are you going to start a seperate counter for the number of times you show that image?

Go and look at some poo........this is all making my head hurt!

only if its relative to the thread

Yep. Stormforce is still in the lead.
