... are timelike, we conclude that the temporal relations between events induce only a partial ordering, rather than a total ordering (as discussed in Section 1.2), because a set of events can be totally ordered only if they are each inside the future or past null cone of each of the others. This doesn' ...

The Lorentz transformation
... For the Doppler effect, consider a photon emitted from the origin of S at time t0 . Its worldline is x = c(t − t0 ). The worldline of the origin of S0 is x = vt. These two lines intersect at x = vt = c(t−t0 ), hence t = t0 /(1−v/c). Now use the Lorentz transformation eq. (3.1), then invert to conver ...

... 1. Figure 1 shows the electric field lines for two point charges separated by a small distance. (i) Determine the ratio q1 /q2 . (ii) What are the signs of q1 and q2 ? Solution (i) The magnitude of q2 is three times the magnitude of q1 because 3 times as many lines emerge from q2 as enter q1 . Then ...

Introduction to Circular Motion
... An object moving in uniform circular motion is moving in a circle with a uniform or constant speed. The velocity vector is constant in magnitude but changing in direction. Because the speed is constant for such a motion, many students have the misconception that there is no acceleration. "After all, ...

These equations should then be applicable to a special reference frame, and fields in other frames should be obtained by the transformation equations. This will imply that the v x B term is directly ascribable to the state ...
