  • Introduction to special theory of relativity.

    Introduction to special theory of relativity.

    Special Theory of Relativity: Galilean Transformations,. Newtonian Relativity. This was a lecture delivered to physics-elective class of a 3 year non-physics degree students on 10th April 2017. This is also a good exposition to honors students and anyone at an introductory level of the special theory of relativity, with requisite mathematical background.  Let us consider…

  • Still some gravity !!

    So talking about gravity fondly I have made a remark “Its not gravity that makes you fall”. You would be shocked as if you fell down but its not due to gravity but something else is at work, Am I a Physicist propounding a phantom theory? The actual statement I made is “Its not gravity…

  • Equivalence from simple notions of Geometry ? Yes.

    Now it may also be related that light bends in a denser media compared to a rarer media because an additional rotational force is working. In other words, the definition of straight line has to change in the medium, that is of different density, because path of light is changing. Light is the guy who…

  • Least action principle and principle of equivalence …

    This article is written in the flow of my intuition which is in a chronological order without any flip-flops. So first I came up with the idea Principle of equivalence means nature of potential energy and kinetic energy are same hence they are equivalents not gravitational mass and kinematic mass as represented through all texts…

  • 3 aspects of Relativity of Einstein that are probably Newtonian.

    3 aspects of Relativity of Einstein that are probably Newtonian.

    You may read the linked article — Time Dilation, before or after reading the current one.  It’s a beauty of physics that not only the most successful laws of physics viz quantum mechanics and theory of relativity are super-set of the canonical laws of physics which is classical mechanics and over-binding on the latter but they…
