Relativity Calculator
Specifically, what
means is that the time of light transit along both arms of the interferometer instrument is "equalized" by the factor
because time
will be reduced by the same factor as is the longitudinal arm
is also shortened by the same ratio
.
That is, the shorter is the longitudinal arm for light transit, therefore shortened will be the transit time!!
And, hence, time dilation is inverse to Lorentz length contraction!
