Relativistic Energy and Momentum

According to classical physics, time flow is the same for every observer. But according to einstein's theory, time flow is different for different observers. The idea that time flow is not the same for all may sound strange because we may not experience this effect in everyday life. This effect is only observed when an object moves with some velocity comparable to the velocity of light. This velocity is termed relativistic velocity.

After Dan makes a basket, Josephine claims she can find the amount of time the ball was in the air (from the time it leave's Dan's hand to the time it enters the basket). 10 ft Josephine says she can do this by using Dan's equation ( h (t) = - 16t2 +18t + 8) and setting the equation equal to zero. Dan doesn't think Josephine's thinking is correct. Who do you agree with? Explain your reasoning using mathematical evidence. 0/10000 Word
