Description
Special relativity defines the relation between proper time and coordinate time, but it does not explain how an object physically realizes this measurement. Based on the principle of the constancy of the speed of light and Lenz's law, this paper shows that, under the condition of a fixed charge amplitude $Q_0$, the internal electromagnetic oscillation frequency of an object is modulated by its velocity, satisfying $\nu = \nu_0\sqrt{1-v^2/c^2}$, from which the proper time formula $d\tau = dt\sqrt{1-v^2/c^2}$ is derived. Further, using the experimental fact of gravitational redshift and the Newtonian gravitational potential, the mechanism is extended to a static gravitational field, yielding a strong-field frequency factor consistent with the Schwarzschild metric. From this, it follows that at the horizon ($r_s = 2GM/c^2$) the speed of light is zero, the object's oscillation ceases and the object dissipates; testable predictions such as a geometric law for mass deficit in black hole mergers are then proposed. This mechanism provides a causal chain based on electromagnetic interactions for time dilation and is consistent with relativistic experiments.
