John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. 28.1 Events and Inertial Reference Frames An event is a physical “happening” that occurs at a certain place and time. To record the event, each observer uses a reference frame that consists of a coordinate system and a clock. Each observer is at rest relative to her own reference frame. An inertial reference frame is one in which Newton’s law of inertia is valid.

The speed of light in a vacuum, measured in any inertial reference frame, always has the same value of c, no matter how fast the source of light and the observer are moving relative to one another.

John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. 28.3 The Relativity of Time: Time Dilation Suppose two identical clocks are built. One is kept on earth, and the other is placed aboard a spacecraft that travels at a constant velocity relative to the earth The astronaut is at rest with respect to the clock on the spacecraft and, therefore, sees the light pulse move along the up/down path shown in top diagram. • According to the astronaut, the time interval ∆𝑡0 required for the light to follow this path is the distance 2D divided by the speed of light c; ∆𝑡0 = 2𝐷 𝑐 • An earth-based observer, however, does not measure ∆𝑡0 as the time interval between these two events. • Since the spacecraft is moving, the earth-based observer sees the light pulse follow the diagonal path shown in red in part b of the drawing. • This path is longer than the up/down path seen by the astronaut. • But light travels at the same speed c for both observers, in accord with the speed-of-light postulate

Copyright © 2015
John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. An observer on the earth sees the light pulse travel a greater distance between ticks. The time interval ∆𝑡 that the earth-based observer measures in Figure b can be determined as follows • While the light pulse travels from the source to the detector, the spacecraft moves a distance 2𝐿 = 𝑣∆𝑡 to the right, where v is the speed of the spacecraft relative to the earth. • From the drawing it can be seen that the light pulse travels a total diagonal distance of 2s during the time interval∆𝑡 Applying the Pythagorean theorem, we find that But the distance 2s is also equal to the speed of light times the time interval∆𝑡, so that

John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Why the Speed of Light in a Vacuum Is the Ultimate Speed One of the important consequences of the theory of special relativity is that objects with mass cannot reach the speed c of light in a vacuum Consider Equation, The equation which gives the kinetic energy of an object moving at a speed v As v approaches the speed of light c, the denominator Approaches zero Hence, the kinetic energy becomes infinitely large However, the work–energy theorem tells us that an infinite amount of work would have to be done to give the object an infinite kinetic energy. Since an infinite amount of work is not available, we are left with the conclusion that objects with mass cannot attain the speed of light c. Thus, c represents the ultimate speed.

Solving this equation for the speed v of the spacecraft yields When you measure your breathing rate, you count N = 8.0 breaths during a proper time interval of Δt0 = 1.0 minutes, and in so doing you determine a rate of R0 = N/Δt0 = (8.0 breaths)/(1.0 minute) = 8.0 breaths/minute. When measured by monitors on the earth, the N = 8.0 breaths occur in a dilated time interval Δt that is related to the proper time interval by 0 2 2 1 t t v c The breathing rate R measured by a monitor on the earth, then, is given by N R t (1)

Therefore, to the observer, the oscillating object is moving with a speed of v = 1.90 × 108 m/s, and the observer measures a dilated time interval for the period of oscillation. To determine this dilated time interval t = Tdilated, we must use the time-dilation equation: where t0 is the proper time interval, as measured in the reference frame to which the fixed end of the spring is attached. The proper time interval is the period T of the oscillation as given by Equations

Since the electron starts from rest, its initial kinetic energy is zero, so its final kinetic energy KE equals the work done. This conclusion is valid for either nonrelativistic or relativistic speeds. The given potential difference has a magnitude of 7 1.8 10 V V and is related to the work done according to 0 / V W q The relativistic kinetic energy of the electron is 2 2 2 1 KE 1 1 / mc v c Recognizing that the electron’s final kinetic energy KE equals the work W done to accelerate the electron, we have KE W for the speed v, we proceed as follows

The spring is initially unstrained and assumed to be massless. Suppose that the spring is either stretched or compressed. Is the mass of the spring still zero, or has it changed? If the mass has changed, is the mass change greater for stretching or compressing?
