Relativity and Electromagnetism The first and foremost issue that set Einstein's new view of relativity apart from the relativity of Galileo were the problems encountered with the new study of light. special relativity • constant speed of light • albert einstein • james clerk maxwell • michelson morley
Simultaneity and Relativity In striving to develop his theory of Special Relativity, Einstein was forced to prove that truly simultaneous events could never possibly be measured. simultaneity • special relativity • albert einstein • constant speed of light • fixed space time
The Addition of Velocities In theory, the law of the addition of velocities seems to be perfectly logical. When viewed in light of relativity, however, everything begins to change. addition of velocities • special relativity • albert einstein • constant speed of light • relativistic addition of velocities
The Speed of Light Though light was finally accepted to exist in the form of waves in the 19th century, other problems awaited the immediate attention of physicists. history of light • speed of light • thomas young • isaac newton • james clerk maxwell
The Mathematics of Black Holes How massive does an object have to be in order to be transformed into a black hole? There is a very simple way to find this out using a standard algebraic equation. schwarzschild radius • black holes • albert einstein • general relativity • escape velocity
Solving Space and Time Dilation Special Relativity states that as an object travels closer to the speed of light, both time and space will lose their meaning. The math for this is surprisingly simple. albert einstein • special relativity • time dilation • space dilation • physics equations |
