  1. Kerr Metric Time Dilation Formula: Deriving Absolute Form

    Jun 14, 2021 · Just as the time dilation formula for the Schwarzschild metric in terms of the position r away from center of mass for a gravitational body and the Schwarzschild radius r s = …

  2. Another Time Dilation Question • Physics Forums

    Jan 20, 2025 · 1) it’s easy to misanalyze the problem when we use the time dilation formula without understanding its limitations. That’s what happening here. 2) This isn’t a time dilation …

  3. Derivation of formula for time dilation - Physics Forums

    Mar 3, 2014 · I know how to derive the lorentz time dilation equation. I am wondering how to derive the equation for gravitational time dilation: T=T o (1/ (sqrt (1- (2GM)/ (Rc 2))) The way …

  4. Time Dilation Formula: Clarifying Confusion - Physics Forums

    Apr 24, 2017 · In a moving system time seems to go slower while objects seem to get longer. As \gamma = \frac {1} {\sqrt {1 - \frac {v^2} {c^2}}} > 1 for v > 0, the correct formula for time …

  5. Is there any way to derive the time dilation formula?

    Sep 27, 2016 · A derivation which just derives the formula for the relationship between proper time and dilated time interval between two events due to relative motion of reference frames. …

  6. Calculating Gravitational Time Dilation in black hole/Future Time ...

    Jan 7, 2009 · You're talking as though that formula compares time "inside" a black hole with time "outside", but that isn't true. Rather, it compares the rate of a clock at hovering radius R from …

  7. Using Lorentz Transformations vs Time Dilation/Length Contraction

    Mar 25, 2016 · The time dilation and length contraction formulas automatically fall out of the Lorentz transform whenever appropriate, and using the Lorentz transform helps you avoid …

  8. What Is the Time Dilation Formula and How Does Speed Affect …

    Jul 15, 2011 · The time dilation formula: \\Delta t'=\\frac{\\Delta t}{\\sqrt{1-\\frac{v²}{c²}}} says that the closer you come to the speed of light the slower time goes (for the object in movement). …

  9. Time Dilation for Photons: Explained • Physics Forums

    Nov 11, 2022 · So, I have a question. The time dilation formula is: t = t₀ • 1 / √(1 - v²/c²) Let's take a photon that travels at c. In my opinion, for a photon "clock doesn't tick" and its life is just a …

  10. What is the equation for time dilation in gravitational fields?

    May 25, 2008 · I think you need to specify clearly what time-dilation you are talking about. Usually we talk about two clocks running at different rates as time dilation. Your formula reminds me of …
