That makes sense, I don't see a contradiction.Sagittarius A-Star said:Correct.
Do you regard this as a contradiction?
- With reference to the rest frame of A, clock B is time-dilated by the factor ##\sqrt{1-v^2/c^2}## and clock A is time-dilated by the factor ##\sqrt{1-0/c^2}=1## (=not time-dilated).
- With reference to the rest frame of B, clock A is time-dilated by the factor ##\sqrt{1-v^2/c^2}## and clock B is time-dilated by the factor ##\sqrt{1-0/c^2}=1## (=not time-dilated).
Why or why not?
The rest frame has zero velocity relative to its inertial reference frame, leading to no time dilation for the clock at rest.
