What if we travel faster than light?
We all know the speed of light. Its 3*(10 raised to power 8). So, what would happen if we travel faster than this.So,there are lots of outcomes.
One which is most noticeable is- Time Dilation: Its actual difference of elapsed time between two events with relative to the observers. So, time dilation is a consequence.If you travel with rocket having 90% the speed of light,then your watch would advance 20 minutes to 10 minutes with relative to that of earth bound observer.
Second is- Aberration: Literally, aberration is something that deviates from the normal way. But, in this , it refers to certain consequences. When we travel with the speed of light we would notice certain type of strange visual consequences. That is called Aberration. Aberration is nothing but, when you travel in space craft faster than speed of light , then whole field of view would contract like tiny, tunnel shaped 'window' in front of you. This happens because all photons would come in front of you, even the photons from behind you will come in front of you.
And the,Third is - Doppler effect: Its the increase in frequency of sound, light or other waves as source and the observer move towards or away from each other.
So, coming to conclude, these are the outcomes from the concept as far as my concern. But, virtually pragmatically I cant do this. I would be fortunate if you can do this, because it would be useful for me to go to the class early, as I would learn from you. Just,can you?

Doppler effect is only applicable for sound not for light
ReplyDeleteNo dude.It's applicable.For instance you hear the ambulance with siren sound.Near by,you hear more sound but as the distance increases the sound decreases.This is an example of Doppler Effect.
