In order to avoid general confusion caused by lack of basic knowledge of the STR, I by now commit to submit a reasonable explaination to questions, problems etc. concerning the Special Theory of Relativity posted below. In order to get started-- try and consider the results of the following STR expressions; Gamma Factor: -1/2 (1-v2/c2) Lorentz transformations: -1/2 x'=(x-vt)*(1-v2/c2) y'=y z'=z -1/2 t'=(t-vx/c2)*(1-v2/c2) Velocity addition u'=(u+v)/(1+uv/c2) [u'=(u-v)/(1-uv/c2)] If thus one is in whole lost-- fear not. I shall be more than glad to respond even to the most fundmental questions. |
