... In an experiment to verify the laws of equilibrium for a set of co-planar forces acting on a uniform metre stick, a student attached four weights and two Newton meters to a metre stick. The positions of the weights and Newton meters were changed until the metre stick was in equilibrium. These positi ...

5. Electromagnetism and Relativity
... We’ve seen that Maxwell’s equations have wave solutions which travel at the speed of light. But there’s another place in physics where the speed of light plays a prominent role: the theory of special relativity. How does electromagnetism fit with special relativity? Historically, the Maxwell equatio ...
