SKETCH
Observer A sees a pendulum oscillating back and forth in a relativistic train and measures its period to be TA. Observer B moves together with the train and measures the period of the pendulum to be TB. These two results will be such that
A) TA > TB. B) TA = TB. C) TA < TB. D) TA could be greater or smaller than TB depending on the direction of the motion.
