Learn how to draw a 2D representation of a 4D object.
Hyperbolic functions are related to the rectangular hyperbola, like the trigonometric functions are related to a circle. The equation for a hyperbola is x2/a2 - y2/b2 = 1. Hyperbolic functions are based on a hyperbola, where a = b = 1. Therefore the...
How both the observer and the object see a linear contraction of the other How the observer and the object measure time dilation in other system The speed of light as measured in both systems Each coordinate system sees a lack of simultaneity...
The special theory of relativity is a theory by Albert Einstein, which can be based on the two postulates Postulate 1: The laws of physics are the same (invariant) for all inertial (non-accelerating) observers.* Postulate 2: In a vacuum the speed...
Uses a standing electromagnetic wave moving past an observer. The observer sees that the effects of relativity on the standing wave are caused by the Doppler Effect on the two waves creating the standing wave
