Abstract

The presentation and defination of Time as a concept in the Theory Special Theory of Relativity is remarkably difference to that of Time in the Theory of Classical Mechanics. In Special Relativity, Time is considered as the fourth dimension in the fabric of space-time.However, the presentation of time as such, can be argued upon, as time can be defined as a method of defining events relative to one another. This paper provides an insight into Time Dilation details of its occurrence, and the controversial representation of time.

Summary

Introduction

Albert Einstein mentioned in his Special Theory of Relativity that we exist in a 4 dimensional world, which has 3 space dimensions and a fourth dimension often called ‘Spacetime’. The theory further explains that the motion of a reference frame (primary object) in the ‘space’ dimension reduces the passage through ‘time’ dimension which results in time progressing slower from the perspective of a reference frame, in motion. This understanding of time and its dilation, Einstein presented, can be argued upon, given the structural flaws in the theory. C) Time Dilation A phenomenon, which exists due to the relativity between time and motion It occurs, when under particular circumstances almost all activities slow down as the velocity of the specific frame of reference increase
