Here is the setup.

A space railway is setup and every mile there is a pole that marks the mile.
Along side of it, is another setup the exact same.
So there are 2 railways heading out into infinite space next to each other.

One spacetrain (A) is flying along the track at 200,000 miles per second.
and another (B) is traveling on the other track in the same direction at
180,000 miles per second.

A) How many poles does (A) pass by in 1 second.
and
B) How many poles does (B) pass by in 1 second.
Please feel free to use time dilation and such
if you prefer but please show the math if you do,
since I have no clue how to do time dilation math
since I am a relativity-challenged spaceman.
lol


Here are my answers using silly basic math since that is all I know.
Answer for A : 200,000 poles
Answer for B : 180,000 poles.
any different answers with time dilation?

You are already in trouble.... speed of light is a cosmic speed
limit and the equations of special relativity apply.

200,000 miles per second is

Perfectally fine in a gedanken.
No probs at all with such numbers is there?
Or are you saying time dilation math will screw up?

Once upon a time 1 equaled 2.......

Still true today.
1 Quart = 2 pints..
or
1 whole = 2 halfs
see
1=2

Your answers are correct. No need to use time dillation. In a Gedanken
Experiment are velocities beyond c allowed.

Faster than light, space****. It can't happen.

180,000 miles per second.

There is no answer, space****. The entire setup was flawed from the
beginning.

Yea, space****. That is because the math doesn't work for velocities
exceeding c. You would know that if you knew SR as you claim you do.

In your case 1/2 brain = 1 moron.

Oh, ya, bummer huh,
Silly Eric.
Why would you trust such math that states other math is wrong?
math proving math is wrong..
such great reliable stuff.
