Just made my own equation :-)

[OOBradm]

oh, just wondering. Does anyone know if there is an official equation to measure what I did with mine? im just wondering how accurate it is

If your going 100 km/hour down a highway, 1 second of earth time is actually only .999633333333333333333 seconds to you.
Enjoy.

time to get that lambo

wtf is lambo

look up the official equation for time dilation

 

[HomeBrewerDude]

i just crapped my pants.

So the faster I go, the longer it will take me to get there.

im getting a bunch of different results - a few that look similar to mine. how cool!

No, you just age slower

Yes, so if I am aging slower than everyone else, when I get to my destination, it will be later than I think it will be.

EDIT: I read what you said wrong - no, it will be earlier than you would think it would be.

omg, the faster you go the longer it will take???
drive to your grandma's at 100mph and tell me how long it takes compared to driving 65mph.

oh, then ask your grandma about her age and see how long it takes to get there.

Yenno, I've always thought of it this way, if you were wearing a watch, it STILL ticks at the same rate, be it traveling at 200MPH in an Enzo, or walking at and unmeasurable speed on foot.

I think what he forgot to mention is the relative of time and space travel, not traveling on earth.

hmm this thread got a lot of interesting replies

Sorry, I should of mentioned that I was taking time from the travelers pov. To him, it only seems that say 2 hours have passed, but in to an observer 4 hours may have passed so once he reaches his destination, its not 4:00 but really 6:00 assuming he left at 2:00.

Shouldn't it be v^2/c^2?

That seems like an awfully large dilation for 100 km/h

 

[Argo]

Actually you're wrong. You're measuring your speed in km/hr and speed of light in m/s. You need to convert one or the other.

that entire equation is wrong

Yeah, i actually realized that about 15 minutes ago. I will be back with a revision in a little bit.

uh........ 1+1=2
