Text

A light clock can be used to measure time. A "tick" of the clock
is the time it takes the light to travel up to a mirror and back...

A Light Clock at rest...

The time as measured by
a clock at rest is called
proper time ( )

Back

The " tick" ( ) of a moving clock takes longer
then it does for a "tick" ( ) of a still clock.

The longer time of the "tick" of the moving clock is due
to longer distance that light has to travel.
