Title: Ellipsoidal shapes in general relativity: general definitions and an application
Authors: Jozsef Zsigrai (Submitted on 7 Jan 2003 ( ), last revised 30 May 2003 (this version, v2)) Abstract: A generalization of the notion of ellipsoids to curved Riemannian spaces is given and the possibility to use it in describing the shapes of rotating bodies in general relativity is examined. As an illustrative example, stationary, axisymmetric perfect-fluid spacetimes with a so-called confocal inside ellipsoidal symmetry are investigated in detail under the assumption that the 4-velocity of the fluid is parallel to a time-like Killing vector field. A class of perfect-fluid metrics representing interior NUT-spacetimes is obtained along with a vacuum solution with a non-zero cosmological constant.

Newtonian Gravity - Problems
  • Newtonian cosmology failed to develop a grand (encompassing) theory of gravity
  • Serious defect in that gravity acted instantaneously everywhere
    • Example - When apple falls to ground every place in universe receives information simultaneously
  • Newtonian gravity ignores fact that speed of light is finite and information does not travel with infinite speed, i.e., inconsistent with special relativity
  • Newtonian gravity overturns law of causality and allows effects to precede causes because of infinite speed of light
Newtonian Space-Time
  • Euclidean geometry, reasonable assumptions about nature of space
  • Parallel postulate
      Given straight line and point not on straight line, one and only one straight line equidistant from given straight line may be drawn through given point
    • Experience suggests that these two lines remain equidistant (parallel) across all space even though we can not verify it
  • Plane triangle: sum of angles = 180 o
  • Pythagorean theorem: c = a + b
  • Space is absolute and time is absolute; both are unchanging

Title: Relativistic force transformation
Authors: Valery P. Dmitriyev (Submitted on 13 Jul 2005) Abstract: Formulae relating one and the same force in two inertial frames of reference are derived directly from the Lorentz transformation of space and time coordinates and relativistic equation for the dynamic law of motion in three dimensions. We obtain firstly relativistic transformation for the velocity and acceleration of a particle. Then we substitute them in the relativistic dynamic equation and perform tedious algebraic manipulations. No recourse were made to "general rules for the transformation of 4-tensors". Formulae obtained were verified in electrodynamics. Comments: 6 pages Subjects: Physics Education (physics.ed-ph) Cite as: arXiv:physics/0507099v1 [physics.ed-ph]

ESSAY The Special Theory of Relativity
by J. L. Safko
A. Principle of Relativity,
Newton's theory of gravity, first studied in Unit 3, is intimately related to his concept of space and time. He considered space and time to be absolute concepts which existed independently of the material universe. Space was a stage in which the planets and stars existed. As time passed, the objects in the material universe evolved against the fixed background of space. Newton also formalized the concept of the inertial frame (or inertial coordinate system). A coordinate system (or coordinate frame) is a grid of rods and clocks at rest with respect to each other that spans a region of space. A simplified drawing of a coordinate system is shown in Fig. 56-1. Using this coordinate system we can describe events. Events are things that can be located at a particular place in space and that occur at a given time. The flashbulb firing on your camera would be an example of an event. The measurement of an event is determining the position and time of an event. We also term this measuring the coordinates of an event. An inertial frame (or an inertial coordinate frame) is a coordinate system in which Newton's first law holds. Newton's first law, as given in Unit 3, is that in the absence of outside forces any body moves with constant velocity. Any coordinate system moving with constant velocity with respect to an inertial system is also an inertial system. These inertial frames were assumed by Newton to be of infinite extent. They covered the entire universe. According to Newton, once you know any inertial frame, you know them all, since each differs from another by a constant velocity.

edit Introduction
Although Isaac Newton based his theory on absolute space and time, he also adhered to the principle of relativity of Galileo Galilei . This stated that all observers who move uniformly relative to each other are equal and no absolute state of motion can be attributed to any observer. During the 19th century the aether theory was widely accepted, mostly in the form given by James Clerk Maxwell . According to Maxwell all optical and electrical phenomena propagate in a medium. Thus it seemed possible to determine

General relativity is also referred to as "The General Theory of Relativity." It was initially presented in a paper by Albert Einstein in 1915. Its primary thrust was to add the effects of gravity to "The Special Theory of Relativity," making special relativity a special case of general relativity. In the same way, ten years earlier, Einstein proposed The Theory of Special Relativity with the primary thrust of eliminating the concept of a fixed reference frame in favor of relative inertial frames in conjunction with the newly learned fact that the speed of light was a constant when measured in any inertial reference frame. This theory, in a similar way, makes the Newtonian Euclidian geometry of space a special case of special relativity. So rather than these new theories refuting the old theories, they actually verified that the previous theories were special cases of a more complicated theory that explains more of reality.
Many of us who have studied physics remember an equation that states that force equals mass times acceleration (f = ma) for a mass being accelerated by a constant force. We also remember how strange it was that an almost identical equation, force equals mass times the gravitational acceleration constant (f = mg) was used to determine the weight of a non-accelerating object in a gravitational field. This similarity (or relationship) between "a" and "g" forms the conceptual basis for general relativity.

Please help to create a more balanced presentation. Discuss and resolve this issue before removing this message. (July 2009) Albert Einstein presented the theories of Special Relativity and General Relativity in groundbreaking publications that either contained no formal references to previous literature, or referred only to a small number of his predecessors for fundamental results on which he based his theories, most notably to the work of Hendrik Lorentz for special relativity, and to the work of Gauss Riemann , and Mach for general relativity. Subsequently claims have been put forward about both theories, asserting that they were formulated, either wholly or in part, by others before Einstein. At issue is the extent to which Einstein and various other individuals should be credited for the formulation of these theories, based on priority considerations.

A general election is an election in which all members of a given political body are up for election. The term is generally used to refer to elections held for a nation's primary legislative body, as distinguished from by-election s and local election s. The term originates in the United Kingdom general elections for the House of Commons
1 List of general elections
A general election is also a term used in opposition to primary election . In the United States , primary elections serve to narrow down a field of candidates, and general elections actually elect candidates to offices. The general election is usually held on Election Day , the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November
