i wus thingking aboute this subject and had some iterestimg thoughts.when you move ,your time,space,and mass dialat.why.

hers what I thought.
when you move you gane kinetik energy
energy=mass
that meens that when you move you gane mass[1 down 2 to go]

if an object ganes mass,that objects gravitational pull gets stroger
gravity "bends" space time.
bend in space time=space/time dialation?

can I have some help cleening this up.I dont know wher to go frome here

Interesting.
Most of you thoughts concern speeds which are a significant percentage of the speed of light. And, yes, you do gain mass at such speeds - in fact, at the speed of light, your mass would be infinite. (obviously, this isn't happening in reality)
Both the time and distance is dilated (refer to Lorentz Factor). It is this phenomenon that determines the universal speed of light regardless of an observer's velocity.
Acceleration has exactly the same effect on time as gravity - the greater of either, the slower the clock runs.
None of these events is intuitive - in fact, they are counter-intuitive compared to our everyday observations,
Whether the bending of space from the mass gain explains it or not, I don't know - but it sounds as credible and likely as any explanation.
