Hey guys, this is a little silly question but it bothers me. I am not a math genius (yet i hope) and I am still in elementary school so there's a lot to learn. But i just read about the lorenz factor in this example he basically used pythagoras of this light clock in a train, so it started of as
[tex](ct)^2 = (cx)^2 + (vt)^2[/tex]
and he derived it into:
[tex]t = \frac{x}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}[/tex]
I would have posted an attemp to solve it but i really just don't know how to crack it and get started
Pleeeaaase help it would be really nice :D
