hi all , i need some help concerning the expressions for lorentz transformation of the acceleration. i couldn't derive them?. thanks. :cry:
 
Physics news on Phys.org
try to us the chain rule, mathematically, lorentz transf... is a common change of coordinates... and are not so difficult... they are linear ;D

Have a look at
A.P. French, Special Relativity, (Nelson, 1968) pp, 152-154
Probably there more recent editions!
