when taken to the top of a mountain, a clock will go fast
or go slow or no change or stop ?
Answer Posted / glenn wallace
"The prediction was tested in 1962, using a pair of very
accurate clocks mounted at the top and bottom of a water
tower. The clock at the bottom which nearer the earth, was
found to run slower, in exact agreement with general
relativity." A Brief History of Time, Stephen Hawking. 1989
So the clock at the top of the mountain would run faster
relative to the bottom.
