Undergrad Is the Relative Speed of Light Constant?
yes for low speed, denominator is almost equals to 1. I am curious how this formula is arrived at. btw , I am working as a software engineer ,(had physics at graduate level) i just got very curious about SR and QM. so sometime i might ask some basic questions- jjaji

Undergrad Is the Relative Speed of Light Constant?
How do we arrive at this expression ? Can you point me the theory behind it ? Pls post weblink if possible.- jjaji

Undergrad Is the Relative Speed of Light Constant?
. Yes , WRT to spaceship speed of S1 is zero. But i don't understnad why L1 is c with respect to spaceship Lets say speed of A = 100 and B = 90 then relative speed of A WRT B is 10 and speed of B with respect to B =0 is that not the case? , can't we substitute A with c and B with speed of...- jjaji

Undergrad Is the Relative Speed of Light Constant?
I agree , but this is the same case with all other motion also. Like .. I am traveling on moving body of speed X and i am throwing an object(A) with speed X in the same direction of my motion then the speed of A with respect to myself is X. I think i need to put my question with more clarity...- jjaji

Undergrad Is the Relative Speed of Light Constant?
I read somewhere that relative speed of light always remains constant. That is there is no difference between relative speed and absolute speed of light. If we move with 99% velocity of light in the direction of light , the speed of light is NOT 1% of actual speed of light , It still remains...- jjaji
