Special book review
The period of the mid-1970s through the mid-1980s was the decade of the small entrepreneur. The outcome was an entrepreneurial explosion during which small suddenly became more beautiful in the marketplace. During this period, entrepreneurship was everywhere, offering something new to governments, cities, corporations, and individuals [3, p. 16]. The new interest in entrepreneurship was not con...
متن کاملSpecial Relativity
References 43 Index 45 ii Preface For me, the wonder of special relativity lies in its successful prediction of interesting and very nonintuitive phenomena from simple arguments with simple premises. These notes have three (perhaps ambitious) aims: (a) to introduce undergraduates to special relativity from its founding principle to its varied consequences, (b) to serve as a reference for those ...
متن کاملSpecial Relativity
Inertial frames are frames related by a constant velocity along any axis. An object is at rest in an inertial frame when its position in space does not change with time. We consider two inertial frames: the 26-100 (S) frame in which we are at rest and the Space Shuttle frame (S ′) which moves relative to S with a velocity u along the x axis and in which the Shuttle is at rest. Newton postulated...
متن کاملTensors and Special Relativity
While you have probably used tensors of rank 1, i.e vectors, in special relativity, relativity is most efficiently expressed in terms of tensor algebra. General relativity, however, requires tensor algebra in a general curvilinear coordinate system. Before discussing special relativity, it will be useful to introduce some of the mathematics of differential forms in a general curvilinear set of ...
متن کاملPart I Special Relativity
The views of space and time which I wish to lay before you have sprung from the soil of experimental physics, and therein lies their strength. They are radical. Henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows, and only a kind of union will preserve an independent reality. H Minkowski (1908).
