    Time Dilation ⏱ If you use a clock to measure time (T₀) in a frame moving at a velocity V you will find that it runs slow when compared to a clock that is in a fixed frame (T). For example, at 99.5% the speed of light you will find that time runs 10 times slower: T ~ 10T₀pic.twitter.com/4avARBrbgj

        Lorentzcontraction is one of the ‘wall formula’ (murals) in Leiden. Here space instead of time, but equally weird! #muurformules http://muurformules.nl/?ln=en pic.twitter.com/vWyc3CMirf

        Is this not Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction ?

        There is nothing called fixed frame. The relative velocity between two reference system is v.

        The word "fixed" is used to refer to the frame in which the "observer" is. It is true that relative to another observer, it is not fixed. But remember in relativity, there is an "observer" on a frame relative to which all measurements are taken

        What happens when something starts going 101% the speed of light?

        That' impossible, since it will violate Special Relativity Law. Nothing with intrinsic mass can travel faster than the speed of light.

        What is a fixed frame? Velocity is always motion relative to something else. Two people floating in space can each assume they are in a fixed frame while watching the other zoom by.

        Any practical usage of this equation?

        A vortex implies the flow of a fluid, would you call it a wave?
