Hi.
Temperature is movement on a microscopic scale, and movement leads to time dilation. So what happens if we heat up a clock? Let's for example assume a pendulum with negligible thermal expansion, such that all other thermal effects on the period can be neglected.
Will it run slower? What would be the relevant velocity?
