Assume you live in a Einsteinian universe with the speed of light being only 60 k /hr. First you see a bicyclist at rest and later you see the same cyclist moving at 55 km/hr. Describe quantities that would change.

The answer is that, Mass, time, and length are the quantities that would change considering the speed of light as the limit. In Einstein's equations it depends on velocity as a fraction of the speed of light.

we can take example as,
Appeared length = rest length x (1-u²)⁽¹/²⁾
in this u is the velocity as a fraction of the speed of light.
