in any inertial reference frame
• What’s an inertial reference frame?

Conventions The velocity v is the velocity of the S’
frame origin as viewed by someone in S frame.– Use u to represent the velocity of an object.
We define our coordinates such that– the x, y, and z directions are the same for both
coordinate systems,– v is always in the x direction, and– the origins of the two coordinate systems
overlap at time t=0.

Einstein’s Relativity… Postulates
– 1. The mathematical form of the laws of physics must be the same in every inertial reference frame.
– 2. The speed of light in vacuum is a constant, and is the same constant in every inertial reference frame.

In “Earth” Reference FrameBoth lightning bolts strike at the same time
The observers on the ground conclude that theobserver on the train sees the light from the right bolt
before they see light from the left bolt.

In “Train” Reference Frame
Either the observer on the train sees light from both beams at the same time…
… or the lightning bolts didn’t strike at the same time!

in one inertial reference frame do not have to occur simultaneously in a different inertial reference frame.

Time Dilation
If two events occur in the same place, separated by a time tp …light can travel a distance L = ctp / 2 and back.
But in the frame of someone moving at a speed v relative tothe proper frame, the light must travel further than L.
The inertial frame in which two events occur at the same placeis known as the “proper” frame for the two events.
Not all pairs of events have a proper frame!
So there is a larger time between the two events in the movingframe than the proper frame!

Thought QuestionTwo people in different inertial frames measure
the time between two events. In which frame will the time interval between two events be the shortest?
A : The one moving fastest with respect to the labB : The one moving slowest with respect to the
labC : The one in which the events occur furthest
apartD : The one in which the events occur closest
togetherE : It depends on other information.

This has been verified . . . many times
• A muon created on earth at rest lives an average of 2.2 x 10-6
s (2.2 μs)
• A muon traveling at .990c lives an average of 1.56 x 10-5 s (15.6 μs)
• A muon travels at a speed 0.990c for 2.2 x 10-6 s before it decays. How far does the muon travel?
