Special Relativity Velocity Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the velocity from time dilation is:

\[ V = \sqrt{1 - \left(\frac{RT}{T}\right)^2} \times C \]

Where:

\( V \) is the observer velocity (m/s)
\( RT \) is the relative time (s)
\( T \) is the actual time (s)
\( C \) is the speed of light (299792458 m/s)

What is Special Relativity Velocity?

Special Relativity Velocity describes the velocity of an observer based on the time dilation experienced by the observer. Time dilation is a difference in the elapsed time measured by two observers, due to a relative velocity between them. This concept is a key aspect of Albert Einstein's theory of special relativity.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Relative Time (RT) = 1 second
Actual Time (T) = 2 seconds

Using the formula:

\[ V = \sqrt{1 - \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2} \times 299792458 \approx 259627884.1 \text{ m/s} \]

The observer velocity (V) is approximately 259,627,884.1 m/s.
