Introduction to the Lorentz transformation | Special relativity | Physics | Khan Academy



Khan Academy

So we’ve got two coordinate systems from the perspectives of two observers. How can we convert spacetime coordinates between these? Enter the Lorentz transformation!

Physics on Khan Academy: Physics is the study of the basic principles that govern the physical world around us. We’ll start by looking at motion itself. Then, we’ll learn about forces, momentum, energy, and other concepts in lots of different physical situations. To get the most out of physics, you’ll need a solid understanding of algebra and a basic understanding of trigonometry.

About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We’ve also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

For free. For everyone. Forever. #YouCanLearnAnything

  1. Approaches thru Minkowski diagram.
    Space-time refers to so called "failure of simultaneity" whereby time depends upon its location in space in direction of motion in the moving frame only.

  2. You have no idea how distracting the color choosing is. When you think about it, if you think about it, I'm following your thinking, and what is distracting to me is thinking about changing colors.

  3. The speed of light is not absolute. We were able to stop light. If you can stop something, you can speed it up. Furthermore black holes are proof there is a form of stellar fusion past fusing protons and electrons into neutrons.Quantum fission happens in neutron stars, to produce quarks. quark stars fuse quarks into leptons. We will also find neutrinos travel faster than light. So fast it almost has no mass, and is very weakly interactive with regular matter as proof. They can only catch a few in at 14,500 lbs detector. Without being able to create and detect them, we can only guess at their velocities

  4. If You read Einstein book about theory of relativity , You can see Einstein is using Lorentz transformation to prove relation between time and space, mean prove his theory of relativity. You are going opposite, MR. Khan

  5. put x-axis t, put y-axis x(t) as normal physics and normal math

    x3/t = c , x2/t = v -> x3/c = x2/v -> x2/x3 = v/c

    define tan 45 = x3/d = 1 then this makes tan a = x2/d

    tan a = x2/ x3 = v/c

  6. The more I understand it the more it feels weird to move.. the imagination that I'm changing spacetime just a tiny tiny tiny tiny tiny tiny bit is odd/awesome at the same time! Thank you Sir, GREAT tutorial!
