Suppose you are in a spaceship traveling at 99% of the speed of light past a long, narrow space station. Your direction of travel is parallel to the length of the station. If you measure lengths and masses on the station and how time is passing on the station, what results will you get?

a. Lengths will appear longer, time will appear to pass faster, and masses will behave as if they are larger.
b. Lengths will appear shorter, time will appear to pass slower, and masses will behave as if they are larger.
c. Lengths will appear shorter, time will appear to pass faster, and masses will behave as if they are smaller.

b because you are traveling..very very fast so the length will be very very small, since light can pass through it very fast. every thing will appear slower since you are moving very fast. yes masses will behave like they are larger because they are slowed down and arent moving fast.

b

we've already shown people traveling faster then we are on earth, age slower... so that means time passes by faster... mass will create resistence at speed, so objects will seem heavier, and of course, the entire point behind light travel is to shorten distances.

i can't remember his name, but it was a person on the space station that proved faster speed means time passes slower....

it was still an extremely small effect, about 1/50th of a second... but it proved the effect IS there. and he wasn't traveling at light speed either.

B

B makes the most sense to me
