Hello! need some help with length contraction.
So according to lorentz transformation we got
I don't know how to put symbols so ill use Y as gamma since they look alike :)
dx' = Y dx - u Y dt
So proper length refers to the frame where dt = 0 since u are measuring the ends at the same time. Therefore, U get
dx' = Y dx
x' = Y x
L = Y L_0
Which is wrong.
Would appreciate some help please :)
