Thanks so much. I was trying to figure it out through position and time transformations.

Thanks for the reply. I am using the "classical" units where c=3*10^8 m/s. I was just trying to figure out if given a position function for one (A) reference frame we can deduce another position function for another reference frame (B) moving relative with A.

Recently I have come into Special Relativity and specifically Lorentz transformation. Let's assume two frames A and B moving relative with speed ##v##. The position of a particle moving with respect to B is given by ##x′=f(t′)=3t′##. What is the function of position ##x=f(t)## of the particle...

Consider the example of flashing light in spaceship. The observer in the spaceshipe and the observer in the Earth measure different times. Both observers could argue that the clock of the other tick slower(motion is relative). But is anyone right ? I mean the one will measure proper time...

The momentum operator for one spation dimension is -iħd/dx (which isn't a vector operator) but for 3 spatial dimensions is -iħ∇ which is a vector operator. So is it a vector or a scalar operator ?

I think i get it. The difference come when they move relative to each other. This is why we can't have an absolute time ? Thanks for the response.

Suppose we have two observers A and B and they are at rest. Observer A observes two objects falling from height H (A has same distance between the two objects). Does observer B will measure different times for the duration of falling of the two objects ? (because the two object are not in the...
