From last time… Einstein’s Relativity ◦ All laws of physics identical in inertial ref. frames ◦ Speed of light=c in all inertial ref. frames • Consequences – Simultaneity: events simultaneous in one frame will not be simultaneous in another. – Time dilation – Length contraction – Relativistic invariant: x2-c2t2 is ‘universal’ in that it is measured to be the same for all observers Phy107 Fall 2006 1 2) E (m0c3.5 3 relativistik 2.5 2 non relativistik 1.5 1 0.5 v (c) 0 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 2 Review: Time Dilation and Length Contraction Time in other frame T Tp Tp 1 v 2 c 2 Time in object’s rest frame Times measured in other frames are longer (time dilation) Length in other frame Length in object’s rest frame L Lp Lp 2 v 1 2 c Distances measured in other frames are shorter (length contraction) Need to define the rest frame and the “other” frame which is moving with respect to the rest frame Phy107 Fall 2006 3 Relativistic Addition of Velocities • As motorcycle velocity approaches c, vab also gets closer and closer to c • End result: nothing exceeds the speed of light v ad v db v ab v ad v db 1 2 c vdb Frame b vad Frame d Object a Phy107 Fall 2006 4 ‘Separation’ between events Views of the same cube from two different angles. Distance between corners (length of red line drawn on the flat page) seems to be different depending on how we look at it. • But clearly this is just because we are not considering the full three-dimensional distance between the points. • The 3D distance does not change with viewpoint. Phy107 Fall 2006 5 Newton again Fundamental relations of Newtonian physics ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ acceleration = (change in velocity)/(change in time) acceleration = Force / mass Work = Force x distance Kinetic Energy = (1/2) (mass) x (velocity)2 Change in Kinetic Energy = net work done Newton predicts that a constant force gives ◦ Constant acceleration ◦ Velocity proportional to time ◦ Kinetic energy proportional to (velocity)2 Phy107 Fall 2006 6 Forces, Work, and Energy in Relativity What about Newton’s laws? Relativity dramatically altered our perspective of space and time ◦ But clearly objects still move, spaceships are accelerated by thrust, work is done, energy is converted. How do these things work in relativity? Phy107 Fall 2006 7 Applying a constant force Particle initially at rest, then subject to a constant force starting at t=0, momentum = (Force) x (time) p= F. t Using momentum = (mass) x (velocity), (p=mv) Velocity increases without bound as time increases Relativity says no. The effect of the force gets smaller and smaller as velocity approaches speed of light Phy107 Fall 2006 8 Relativistic speed of particle subject to constant force At small velocities (short times) the motion is described by Newtonian physics At higher velocities, big deviations!

Relativity requires a different concept of momentum prelativistic mv 1 1 (v /c) 2 But not really so different! For small velocities << light speed 1, and so prelativistic mv This is Newton’s momentum Differences only occur at velocities that are a substantial fraction of the speed of light Phy107 Fall 2006 12 Relativistic Momentum Momentum can be increased arbitrarily, but velocity never exceeds c We still use 1 change in momentum Force change in time For constant force we still have momentum = Force x time, but the velocity never exceeds c Momentum has been redefined SPEED / SPEED OF LIGHT Newton’s momentum 0.8 0.6 0.4 v c 0.2 p / po p / po 2 1 , po moc 0 prelativistic mv mv 1 (v /c) 2 Phy107 Fall 2006 0 1 2 3 4 5 RELATIVISTIC MOMENTUM Relativistic momentum for different speeds. 13 How can we understand this? change in velocity change in time acceleration much smaller at high speeds than at low speeds Newton said force and acceleration related by mass. We could say that mass increases as speed increases. prelativistic mv mv mrelativisticv • Can write this — mo is the rest mass. prelativistic mov mo v mv 1 1 (v /c) , m m o 2 — relativistic mass m depends on velocity Phy107 Fall 2006 14 The the particle becomes extremely massive as speed increases ( m=mo ) The relativistic momentum has new form ( p= mov ) Useful way of thinking of things remembering the concept of inertia RELATIVISTIC MASS / REST MASS Relativistic mass 5 4 3 2 1 0 0 Phy107 Fall 2006 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1 SPEED / SPEED OF LIGHT 15 Example An object moving at half the speed of light relative to a particular observer has a rest mass of 1 kg. What is it’s mass measured by the observer? 1 1 1 2 2 1 0.25 1 (v /c) 1 (0.5c /c) 1 1.15 0.75 So measured mass is 1.15kg Phy107 Fall 2006 16 Question A object of rest mass of 1 kg is moving at 99.5% of the speed of light. What is it’s measured mass? A. 10 kg B. 1.5 kg C. 0.1 kg Phy107 Fall 2006 17 Relativistic Kinetic Energy Might expect this to change in relativity. Can do the same analysis as we did with Newtonian motion to find KErelativistic 1moc Doesn’t seem to resemble Newton’s result at all 2 However for small velocities, it does reduce to the Newtonianform (by using power series) 1 KE relativistic mov 2 for v c 2 Phy107 Fall 2006 18 Relativistic Kinetic Energy Kinetic energy gets arbitrarily large as speed approaches speed of light Is the same as Newtonian kinetic energy for small speeds. 4 2 o Can see this graphically as with the other relativistic quantities (KINETIC ENERGY) / m c 3 Relativistic 2 1 Newton 0 Phy107 Fall 2006 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1 SPEED / SPEED OF LIGHT 19 Total Relativistic Energy The relativistic kinetic energy is KE relativistic 1moc 2 moc 2 moc 2 Depends on velocity Constant, independent of velocity this as • Write moc 2 KE relativistic moc 2 Total energy Kinetic energy Phy107 Fall 2006 Rest energy 20 Mass-energy equivalence This results in Einstein’s famous relation E moc , or E mc 2 2 This says that the total energy of a particle is related to its mass. Even when the particle is not moving it has energy. We could also say that mass is another form of energy ◦ Just as we talk of chemical energy, gravitational energy, etc, we can talk of mass energy Phy107 Fall 2006 21 Example In a frame where the particle is at rest, its total energy is E = moc2 Just as we can convert electrical energy to mechanical energy, it is possible to tap mass energy How many 100 W light bulbs can be powered for one year 1 kg mass of energy?

Calculate its (a) the rest energy, (b) the total energy, and (c) the kinetic energy! 24 EXAMPLE Determine the energy required to accelerate an electron from 0.500c to 0.900c 25 Energy and momentum 2 Relativistic energy is E moc Since depends on velocity, the energy is measured to be different by different observers Momentum also different for different observers ◦ Can think of these as analogous to space and time, which individually are measured to be different by different observers But there is something that is the same for all observers: E c p moc 2 2 2 2 2 = Square of rest energy Compare this to our space-time invariant Phy107 Fall 2006 2 x c t 2 2 26 A relativistic perspective The concepts of space, time, momentum, energy that were useful to us at low speeds for Newtonian dynamics are a little confusing near light speed Relativity needs new conceptual quantities, such as space-time and energy-momentum Trying to make sense of relativity using space and time separately leads to effects such as time dilation and length contraction In the mathematical treatment of relativity, spacetime and energy-momentum objects are always considered together Phy107 Fall 2006 27 Summary of Special Relativity • The laws of physics are the same for all inertial observers (inertial reference frames). • The speed of light in vacuum is a universal constant, independent of the motion of source and observer. • The space and time intervals between two events are different for different observers, but the spacetime interval is invariant. • The equations of Newtonian mechanics are only “non-relativistic” approximations, valid for speeds small compared to speed of light. 28 Everything Follows • Lorentz transformation equations • Doppler shift for light • Addition of velocities • Length contraction • Time dilation (twin paradox) • Equivalence of mass and energy (E=mc2) • Correct equations for kinetic energy • Nothing can move faster than c 29 30 31 http://pujayanto.staff.fkip.uns.ac.id/ 32 May God Bless us 33
