heres a code that gets time dialation, length distortion, and mass increase... for high speeds.... remeber speeds must be in fractions of C(speed of light) just a little etool fo r physics Smile he he he

code:

var t1, v, c, t, a, b, d, l, l1, l2, m, M : real
c := 186000
put "Physics!!"
loop
    put "Time Dialation"
    put "You are on a rocket going near the speed of light."
    put "How much time a=has passed for an observer"
    put "Please enter your speed in decimal form(of LightSpeed)i.e V / 186,000)"
    get v
    put "Please enter number of years/days spent on rocket."
    get t1
    a := v ** 2
    b := 1 - a
    d := b ** 0.5
    t := t1 / d
    put " The time elapsed on earth is"
    put t
    put "Here for lenght dialation(means to an observer you look shorter)"
    put "*Remember your still going the same speed as inputed before"
    put "What the lenght of ur ship"
    get l
    l1 := (1 - v) ** 0.5
    l2 := l1 * l
    put "Your length form an observer is"
    put l2
    put "Mass distortion"
    put "What is ur mass(kg)"
    get m
    M := (m * (1 - v ** 2) ** -0.5)
    put "Your mass at the speed of ", v, " will be ", M, "!!"
    delay (1000)
end loop

there are a lot variables there for speed dont put anything >1 or it will say cannot devide by zero.... ihope u enjoy
i think its bugless9you cant faster than the speed of light!!)

that's preaty useless, unless you package this as portable functions that could actually be used in other programs Confused

its good for physics just as a helper

Ugh, you used Imperial measurements, in Physics, this disgusts me.

It wouldn't hurt to make it look nicer-add some random graphics

by the looks of the code its only a 1 problem solver
