- TL;DR Summary
- I'm completely new to Special and General Relativity. I have some background in newtonian/classical physics. But in class, special and general relativity is mind-boggling to me. I have a hard time learning/wrapping my head around it. So I'm looking for good online resources to strengthen my understanding of it.
Like I said, I'm new to Special and General Relativity. It really sucks when I space out for 2 minutes in class and for the next 30 minutes I'm completely lost until the teacher brings up a new topic. I'm looking for supplementary materials (online preferably as I'm away from home) that can strengthen my understanding of the topic. I've looked at khan academy and youtube videos but it still doesn't quite click for me
I don't want to sit in class and pretend to understand the material; I actually want to understand it. So if you have any advice or tip you can give me for learning this sort of physics, I will also take with gratitude. Also, currently, I'm a bit hazy in the Lorentz transformation and the Minkowski diagram department, so if anyone have some resource that focus on explaining that would be great as well.
