Special relativity Mathematical Physics index History Topics Index The classical laws of physics were formulated by Newton in the Principia in 1687. According to this theory the motion of a particle has to be described relative to an inertial frame in which the particle, not subjected to external forces, will move at a constant velocity in a straight line. Two inertial frames are related in that they move in a fixed direction at a constant speed with respect to each other. Time in the frames differs by a constant and all times can be described relative to an absolute time. This 17th Century theory was not challenged until the 19th Century when electric and magnetic phenomena were studied theoretically. It had long been known that sound required a medium to travel through and it was quite natural to postulate a medium for the transmission of light. Such a medium was called the ether and many 19th Century scientists postulated an ether with various properties. Cauchy Stokes Thomson and Planck all postulated ethers with differing properties and by the end of the 19th Century light, heat, electricity and magnetism all had their respective ethers. A knowledge that the electromagnetic field was spread with a velocity essentially the same as the speed of light caused Maxwell to postulate that light itself was an electromagnetic phenomenon.

Special Relativity Michael Fowler UVa Physics Link to Physics 109N Home Page and Other Topics! Galilean Relativity again At this point in the course, we finally enter the twentieth centuryAlbert Einstein wrote his first paper on relativity in 1905. To put his work in context, let us first review just what is meant by "relativity" in physics. The first example, mentioned in a previous lecture, is what is called "Galilean relativity" and is nothing but Galileo's perception that by observing the motion of objects, alive or dead, in a closed room there is no way to tell if the room is at rest or is in fact in a boat moving at a steady speed in a fixed direction. (You can tell if the room is accelerating or turning around.) Everything looks the same in a room in steady motion as it does in a room at rest. After Newton formulated his Laws of Motion, describing how bodies move in response to forces and so on, physicists reformulated Galileo's observation in a slightly more technical, but equivalent, way: they said the laws of physics are the same in a uniformly moving room as they are in a room at rest . In other words, the same force produces the same acceleration, and an object experiencing no force moves at a steady speed in a straight line in either case. Of course, talking in these terms implies that we have clocks and rulers available so that we can actually time the motion of a body over a measured distance, so the physicist envisions the room in question to have calibrations along all the walls, so the position of anything can be measured, and a good clock to time motion. Such a suitably equipped room is called a "frame of reference"the calibrations on the walls are seen as a frame which you can use to specify the precise position of an object at a given time. (This is the same as a set of "coordinates".) Anyway, the bottom line is that no amount of measuring of motions of objects in the "frame of reference" will tell you whether this is a frame at rest or one moving at a steady velocity.

Modern Physics Relativity Theory Special Relativity Special Relativity Special relativity is a theory proposed by Albert Einstein that describes the propagation of matter and light at high speeds. It was invented to explain the observed behavior of electric and magnetic fields, which it beautifully reconciles into a single so-called electromagnetic field, and also to resolve a number of paradoxes that arise when considering travel at large speeds. Special relativity also explains the behavior of fast-traveling particle, including the fact that fast-traveling unstable particles appear decay more slowly than identical particles traveling more slowly. Special relativity is an indispensable tool of modern physics, and its predictions have been experimentally tested time and time again without any discrepancies turning up. Special relativity reduces to Newtonian mechanics in the limit of small speeds. According to special relativity, no wave or particle may travel at a speed greater than the speed of light c . Therefore, the usual rules from Newtonian mechanics do not apply when adding velocities that are large enough. For example, if a particle travels at a speed

Special Relativity This directory wil contain a variety of problems in special relativity. Particular attention is given to the postulates set forth by Albert Einstein. The wording of these postulates used here are from Elementary Modern Physics written by Weidner and Sells and published by Allyn and Bacon, Inc. 1973 Postulate I. The Principle of Relativity: The laws of physics are the same, or invariant, in all inertial systems that is, the mathematical form of the law remains the same. This postulate implies such things as: What is, is. What is not, is not. There is no such thing as a free lunch. There is no preferred inertial system. What will be, will be. Que sera, que sera. The universe works. It will be referred to in the problem solutions as: The common sense postulate. Postulate II. The speed of light in a vacuum is a constant, independant of the inertial system, the source, and the observer. The Lorentz transformations relate the space and time intervals between two events observed in one inertial systems to the space and time intervals observed in another inertial system. These intervals are related by the following pair of equations. The important thing to note about these equations is that they are two simultaneous equations. Well known methods of solving simultaneous equations are then applicable.

The special theory of relativity , or SR for short, is the physical theory published in by Albert Einstein that modified Newtonian physics to incorporate electromagnetism as represented by Maxwell's equations . The theory is called "special" because the theory applies only to the special case of measurements made when both the observer and that which is being observed are not affected by gravity . Ten years later, Einstein published the theory of General Relativity GR ), which is the extension of special relativity to incorporate gravitation.
