The general theory of relativity, together with the necessary parts of the theory of invariants, is dealt with in the author’s book Die Grundlagen der allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie
From reading this article, you will learn: The underlying reasoning behind what general relativity is all about; why we use tensors, how and why gravity has something to do with spacetime curvature as well as what the actual equations of general relativity really tell us in an intuitive sense.

The diagrams guide the reader, step-by-step, from the basics of relativity to advanced topics including the addition of velocities, Lorentz contraction, time dilation, twin paradox, Doppler shift, and Einstein’s famous equation E = mc2.
1 Introduction. General relativity, and its application to cosmological models such as in ation, is a remark-ably beautiful and elegant theory. Yet newcomers to the eld often face at least three types of challenges: conceptual, mathematical, and notational.
In this article I plan on going over the fundamental principles of special relativity, both conceptually and intuitively, but also through the mathematics and equations behind the theory. First, I’ll explain the basic concepts that special relativity is based on as intuitively as possible.
This worksheet will help you to understand why real objects can’t travel at the speed of light. When answering the following questions, use as many significant figures as your calculator can show. The effect of relative motion on mass • The special theory of relativity predicts that an object’s mass will change as its speed increases.
