Time when events occur at same point in space (shortest)
Time when events occur at different points in space (longer)
t=γt0t = \gamma t_0t=γt0 or t=t01−v2c2t = \frac{t_0}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}t=1−c2v2t0
γ=11−v2c2\gamma = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}γ=1−c2v21
Length measured at rest relative to object (longest)
L=L0γL = \frac{L_0}{\gamma}L=γL0 or L=L01−v2c2L = L_0\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}L=L01−c2v2
Dilated time is longer; proper time is shortest
Proper length is longer; contracted length is shorter
Only in the direction of motion
