- Explain the fact the special theory of relativity defines the limits for the validity of Newtonian mechanics.Length contraction, time dilation, and Lorentz velocity transforms; why don't any of these effects show up when I drive down the highway at 70mph? These effects caused problems in the early days of police trying to regulate traffic. In 1953, a device that offset these effects was required in all new cars made worldwide. It is possible to see these effects in cars from before this time, but is illegal to drive them on the road without these devices. They do show up. The fact that the speed is such a small fraction of the speed of light means the effects are far, far too small for us to notice. These effects only work in space. The effects will show up on spaceships, but not on Earth. These effects are valid for atomic size objects only. Anything large enough to be seen without a microscope does not experience these effects.Solve the following problem using Lorentz transformations: Two jets of material are ejected in opposite directions from the center of a radio galaxy. Both jets move with a speed of 0.750c relative to the galaxy. Determine the speed of one jet relative to the other.
- A car is moving relative to a pedestrian with a Lorentz factor of 1.45. With the length of the car being 5.7m according to the pedestrian, what's the length according to the driver of the car (he's moving at the same speed of the car) ?Alice and Mary are twins. Mary moves away from the Earth to a distant planet 12 light years away from the Earth. a) With what MINIMUM speed should Mary move in order to return to the Earth N=6 years younger than her sister? b) Explain the resolution of "twin paradox"? ( The twins seem to be in a symmetrical situation, why is one of them younger.)
