    'Relativity: General Theory' by Juliette Myers
    Juliette attended Ways into creative writing with Stephen Knight
    This a story about the way that, unlike us, narratives can drive through conflicts to a resolution - or how different views can find a way to coalesce. Of course that hides a lifetime of detail and no one tells you if the resolution only comes with death, or if it comes with silence. But you must be happy that it is this way, with beginnings, middles, and - dare I say it - ends. On your terms, anyway.
    You remember things differently. Your life is a set of peaceful constants, its gaps filled with sheer faith. Your porch was organised so well with its umbrella stand, coat-hooks and the porcelain clown propped up in the corner. In spring you had primroses. Even when we played hop-scotch as kids you marked off the squares with a piece of chalk. (I won't say always.) You believed that everyone was meant to
    be with someone, like mass attracting mass through an invisible force. Jean's Law, I used to call it. You found it hard to cope when the patterns didn't hold and Derek walked away. You seemed to think that life was over. I let the pebbles spill between my fingers and wished that you could live with mystery. We had a bitter lemon from the cool bag and some sweaty quiche on napkins in our hands.

    Special Relativity
    Newton's laws of motion give us a complete description of the behavior moving objects at low speeds. The laws are different at speeds reached by the particles at SLAC. Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity describes the motion of particles moving at close to the speed of light. In fact, it gives the correct laws of motion for any particle. This doesn't mean Newton was wrong, his equations are contained within the relativistic equations. Newton's "laws" provide a very good approximate form, valid when v is much less than c . For particles moving at slow speeds (very much less than the speed of light), the differences between Einstein's laws of motion and those derived by Newton are tiny. That's why relativity doesn't play a large role in everyday life. Einstein's theory supersedes Newton's, but Newton's theory provides a very good approximation for objects moving at everyday speeds. Einstein's theory is now very well established as the correct description of motion of relativistic objects, that is those traveling at a significant fraction of the speed of light.

From Physics wiki
General relativity Jump to: navigation search General covariance is the statement that a physical theory, e.g., Einstein's theory of gravity , is expressed mathematically in a form that is invariant under arbitrary changes of coordinate systems , i.e., diffeomorphisms . For instance, in Special relativity , in the absence of gravity , the worldline of a particle moving freely through spacetime is described by an inertial observer as Whereas this equation is specially covariant (invariant under Lorentz transformations ), it does not hold true for an accelerating observer , and must be replaced by which is generally covariant , and true for all observers.

For example, people on Star Trek are always talking about the space-time continuum, worm holes, time dilations and all sorts of other things that are based on the principle of relativity in one way or another. If you are a fan of science you know that relativity plays a big part there as well, especially when talking about things like black holes and astrophysics.

    This page is updated on November 3, 2010 About Alice Law Alice Law is the same thing with The Relativity Theory. However, it differs from Albert Einstein’s Relativity Theory in terms of reasoning and mathematics. It bases itself on (c+v) (c-v) mathematics.
    Alice Law claims that electromagnetic waves utilize the same structures with gravitation, electrical and magnetic forces, which are FIELDS. The meaning of c (light speed constant ) in Alice Law is the velocity of light on a field.
    With (c+v) (c-v) mathematics it utilizes, Alice Law consistently explains issues studied within the concept of Special Relativity such as Time Dilation, Space Deformation and Simultaneousness. It also reveals the relationships between these effects and Doppler Effect. Special Relativity and Classical Mechanics have easefully united within Alice Law.
    The data obtained from projects such as Global Positioning System (GPS) and APOLLO with the advances in technology confirm (c+v) (c-v) mathematics of Alice Law. However, Alice Law needs more precise experiments. The way to conduct such experiments is explained here Han Erim Alice Law Version 6.0 launched (October 15, 2009)

    Albert Einstein radically reshaped the understanding of gravity through his proposal of the General Theory of Relativity in 1916. The problem he tackled was to create a theory of gravity that was consistent with his Special Relativity Theory, including its radical transformation of the understanding of space and time measurements through the introduction of a unified concept of space-time. Special relativity is based on the invariance of the laws of physics under any constant change of velocity, and hence the equivalence from a physical viewpoint of all uniformly moving (non-accelerating) observers. General relativity extended these ideas to a special class of accelerating observers.

    18. Relativistic Velocities
    Here is the formula for adding velocities in special relativity when motion occurs in a single direction.
    http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/SR/velocity.html
    [Physics FAQ] Updated by Terence Tao 1997.
    Original by Philip Gibbs 1996.
    How Do You Add Velocities in Special Relativity?
    Suppose an object A is moving with a velocity v relative to an object B , and B is moving with a velocity u (in the same direction) relative to an object C . What is the velocity of A relative to C v u -> A -> B C w -> In non-relativistic mechanics the velocities are simply added and the answer is that A is moving with a velocity w = u+v relative to C . But in special relativity the velocities must be combined using the formula u + v w = - 1 + uv/c If u and v are both small compared to the speed of light c , then the answer is approximately the same as the non-relativistic theory. In the limit where u is equal to c (because C is a massless particle moving to the left at the speed of light), the sum gives c . This confirms that anything going at the speed of light does so in all reference frames. This change in the velocity addition formula is not due to making measurements without taking into account time it takes light to travel or the Doppler effect. It is what is observed after such effects have been accounted for and is an effect of special relativity which cannot be accounted for with newtonian mechanics.
