time length and mass change for an object moving at speeds close to the speed of light (relativistic speeds)
This script calculates the Lorentz factor (γ) for a given velocity and creates a graph of time dilation vs. velocity. The closes the velocity is to the speed of light:
*The more time dilation occurs. ex: 299,792 k/s = 1 year for a stationary observer only 0.64 days pass for the moving object.
At the speed of Light
Speed of 1Km/s
on the Command line (tested on MacOS) python3 lorfactor.py
Will ask for speed. See picture below
