the inconsistencies in the current model of mechanics and electromagnetism with special relativity. Rather than attempting to remold Maxwell’s equations‚ Einstein‚ in 1905‚ rejected prevailing assumptions about the nature of time and space in the reference frames of observers with different velocities: instead of forcing the time and spatial position of an object to be invariant‚

Einstein published four papers‚ two of which were on The Photoelectric Effect and another on The Theory of Special Relativity (The latter being highly inspired by Maxwell’s work on electrodynamics). Special Relativity is basically the theory of

theory of relativity • According to special relativity‚ space and time depend on one’s state of motion. 1 2. Conflict between Einstein’s special relativity and Newton’s law of universal gravitation. • Special relativity---no influence or disturbance of any sort can travel faster than the speed of light. • Law of Universal gravitation---involves influences that are transmitted instantaneously over vast distances of space simultaneously. • This conflict gave birth to general relativity

Einstein’s Theory of Relativity Albert Einstein was born on March 14‚ 1879 in Ulm‚ Germany. As Albert grew up he loved taking lessons on the piano and the violin. Then when he was about ten or eleven he grew the curiosity about mysteries of science. As he grew up into an adult he worked as a patent clerk in Bern‚ Switzerland. This is when Mr. Einstein published four of his research papers‚ one of them being the Special Theory of Relativity or as most people know it as E=MC². By 1915‚ Albert Einstein

Einstein – General and Special Theory of Relativity First things to consider before this part of the presentation: Space-time continuum = Space + Time In longer terms: Space-time is a flexible fabric. Space and time are deeply connected. Space-time is flexible; it is malleable. Space-time is curved when there is gravity‚ matter‚ energy‚ and momentum. Special: The faster you reach through space‚ the slower you move through time. (?) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHjpBjgIMVk General: Einstein

Reading Assignment #1: Vector Analysis Textbook Sections that I read: 2.1-3 Important Concepts: An interaction between two objects can be described and measured in terms of two forces. The force is a push or either a pull. There are two types of forces. #1 is a long range force and this force does not require the objects involved to be touching each other. An example of this is when you are holding a magnet away from a refrigerator and you are able to feel the magnetic pull. #2 is a contact force
