Can there be something faster than speed of light? This is the question that occasionally come into mind of physics students. The speed of light
Q1. Who proposed the theory of relativity? Ans: Albert Einstein. Q2. What is the difference between general theory of relativity and special theory of relativity?
Proof that no signal can travel faster than the speed of the light. Solution: Method 1 As relativistic addition of velocity relation is already derived
Results of Galilean Transformation equations can not be applied for the objects moving with a speed comparative to the speed of the light. Therefore new
Aim of the Michelson-Morley experiment: The Michelson-Morley experiment was done to confirm the presence of hypothetical medium called ether. Therefore, one question should be there
Real example of time dilation: As we have already discussed the concept of time dilation. Let us discuss its example: Decay of µ- mesons: µ-
Do you know that there is variation of mass with velocity in relativity that is mass varies with the velocity when the velocity is comparable
Let there are two inertial frames of references S and S’. S is the stationary frame of reference and S’ is the moving frame of
Relativistic energy momentum relation: From Einstein mass energy relation E = mc2 (1) Also from variation of mass with velocity relation m = m0/(1 –
Let there are two inertial frames of references S and S’. S is the stationary frame of reference and S’ is the moving frame of
