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.
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.
Special relativity deals with how speed affects time, space and mass and was the theory from which Einstein’s famous E = mc2 equation was derived. For the purposes of this project, we will focus on
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.
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.
T HE present book is intended, as far as pos- sible, to give an exact insight into the theory of Relativity to those readers who, from a general scientific and philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus. 1. of theoretical physics.
The special theory of relativity for dummies. If an object moves in relation to a (non-accelerating) observer, Einstein has taught us that the time of the object t’ differs from the time t of the observer, and in such a way that
