Question 85

Multiple Choice

Observer A sees a pendulum oscillating back and forth in a relativistic rocket and measures its period to be TA. Observer B moves along with the rocket and measures the period of the
Pendulum to be TB. What is true about these two time measurements?


A) TA=TBT _ { A } = T _ { B }
B) TA>TBT _ { A } > T _ { B }
C) T A<TBT \mathrm {~A} < \mathrm { T } _ { \mathrm { B } }
D) TT A could be greater or smaller than TBT _ { B } depending on the direction of the motion.
