What is Frames: Definition and 630 Discussions

Dropped Frames is a multi-album project by American musician Mike Shinoda, currently consisting of three volumes. Dropped Frames, Vol. 1 was released on July 10, 2020, with subsequent volumes following on July 31 and September 18 of the same year. The project was composed interactively with fans on Shinoda's Twitch channel. All three albums were distributed via Kenji Kobayashi Productions, Shinoda's own company capitally related to Machine Shop co. With the exception of the opening track of volume 1, "Open Door", tracks on Dropped Frames are primarily instrumental.

    I Lorentz transformation for 3 frames

    A particle is moving in the lab frame ##S'## at ##\beta'_z##. I want to transform coordinates and momenta of the particle to a frame ##S## moving at ##\beta_0##. At time ##t = t' = 0##: $$z = \frac{z'} { \gamma_0 (1 - \beta'_z \beta_0) },\, \gamma\beta_z = \gamma_0 ( \gamma'\beta'_z -...

    Is the Earth's frame considered inertial in a moving car?

    I have a really stupid question. Suppose I am in a car and the car is going around a loop. Yes, the Earth is not inertial -- it rotates -- but let me ignore that and, momentarily, designate the Earth as inertial. Now, we know the frame of the car is not inertial--the car is turning. We...

    B Confusion over relative velocities and reference frames

    I will refer to the example given in 'On the electrodynamics of moving bodies' concerning a rod moving in a coordinate system, in which a beam of light is sent from one end of the rod to the other and is then reflected back. Usually when calculating relative velocities, we may simply consider...

    Difference in energy not the same in different reference frames

    These quantities are evidently not equal unless v1 = v2, but surely the change in kinetic energy should be the same in different frames of reference? I was wondering what mistake or misconception I have made because this has been bugging me for a little while. Thank you in advance!

    Energy in different inertial frames

    I Can the Lorentz factor be modified for non-inertial frames?

    The term "Lorentz transformations" only refers to transformations between inertial frames. However, if we differentiate velocity with respect to time, we obtain acceleration. The Lorentz factor says: t(0 reference frame observer at rest) / t(moving) = 1 / Sqrt[1–(v/c)^2] t0 / tm =...

    I Can two inertial frames differ by the speed of light?
