yes you´re right.
if the light source is moving towards you(or if you´re moving towards the light source if you will), the electromagnetic waves(visible light for instance) will be shifted towards blue.
if the light source is moving away from you, the electromagnetic waves will be shifted...
i don´t quite understand:
if you have a system made up of three pool balls. one of them is moving with a speed of 1 meters per second, the two other balls are standing still. if the moving ball hits the two other balls, in a way that the moving ball is standing still afterwards, then the two...
hi pierre
you don´t normally choose an accelerating thing to be a frame of reference. in special relativity you choose an inertial frame of reference, which would be a frame of reference with uniform motion, not undergoing any kind of acceleration.
one could imagine a body which is being...
hello forum, i got another question:
1st frame of reference:
a proton and its anti matter counter part are next to each other in open space. they have no relative speed to the frame of reference. suddenly they annihilate each other and a burst of energy appears.
2nd frame of reference...
according to special relativity the mass of an object increases with its velocity by the lorentz factor. the lorentz faktor would be 2.3 for when traveling at 90% the speed of light. as you go faster and faster the lorentz factor increases. it would be 22.4 when traveling at 99.9% the speed of...
