An observer A sees an asteroid with a radioactive element moving by at a speed = 0.3 c and measures the radioactivity decay time to be TA. Another observer B is moving with the asteroid and measures its decay time as TB. Then TA and TB are related as below [VITEEE 2008]

1. TB < TA

2. TB = TA

3. TB > TA

4. Either 1 or 3 depending on whether the asteroid is approaching or moving away from A.
