According 2 RelativityTheory if V could travel at the speedof light V can reach a place in an advanced time?

Question

For Ex: If we start at 09:00 hrs............we can reach the same point at
08.59****** . Could anyone explain me in a Kindergarten method?

Answer 1

According to relativity V cannot travel at the speed of light so this is not an issue. There is one interesting exception to this, if V is an elementary particle with zero rest mass (E.G. a photon) then it can only travel at the speed of light. A side effect of this is that time just does not exist for these particles so the entire concept of when it arrives means nothing.

Answer 2

Well you don't actually have to travel at the speed of light in order to gain or lose time,think about going on an aeroplane to a different continent...when you reach your destination you either gain or lose time in hours...even as you walk you gain and lose time although the amount of time lost is too little to be taken highly...according to geography,for every 15 degrees east across the latitudes you lose an hour and for gain and for every 15 degrees west you gain an hour...That is till you reach the 0 degree latitude,then you gain the least amount of time possible at that moment in time.It is actually impossible to manipulate time simple because it does not exist...even if the world were to turn backwards,events in human lives will not also go backwards.So coming to my summery,travelling at the speed of light will obviously make you lose and gain time but its nothing that doesn't naturally occur.So for all you who like setting your watches accurately for every step you take you lose or gain fractions of a split second.

So my kindergarten student do you get the sense behind the twists and curls?

Answer 3

Travel from A to B at speed of light, it will take 0.001 seconds for an example, now 2 times the speed will take 0.0005 seconds. Eventually you will arrive at exactly the same time that you set off. Now what happens if you can go 100 times faster than that. You must be able to get there before you set off.

Answer 4

Firstly, your assumption is incorrect, since you can't go back in time. Ideally, if you travel close to the speed of light, then an observer looking at you will see your time slowed way down. It would look like you are moving very slowly. If you could go the speed of light, then an observer watching you would think you had stopped moving. So if you stopped flying, turned around, and went back to the observer, then you would notice that your watch had not passed as much time as the observer's watch. But you would not go back in time.

Answer 5

According to Relativity Theory you can't travel at the speed of light.

Answer 6

if we were to hypothetically travel at the speed of light, time would stop relative to that person because time is relative, not absolute. time travel to the past is thought not to be possible however if you could reach the speed of light, theoretically time would stop relative to you while still going on normally for everyone else. depending on how long you traveled for at that speed would determine how far ahead in time you have traveled.
