3. What is the relativistic addition of velocity? Derive the addition of velocity in classical mechanics from the relativistic one. Please give an example in calculating relative velocity in the relativistic region. 4. Consider the two typical consequences of the Lorentz transformations: moving rods contract (length contraction) and moving clocks run slow (time dilation). If we replace v = -v in the two formulas above, we will get the same results. Please explain the physical meaning of the results.
