Conceptual Physics Alive: Special Relativity 2

Conceptual Physics Alive: Special Relativity 2 includes a digital video and questions set with answers. Observe Paul Hewitt teach in a classroom with real students, using engaging demonstrations and artwork. In this video, length, momentum, mass, and Einstein's famous equation E=mc² are discussed and supported with several fanciful examples. Speculations about going faster than the speed of light are entertained. Segment length: 38 minutes Special Relativity Includes: Hewitt begins with reference to the film, "Relativistic Time Dilation" from the previous lecture. Chalkboard exhibition of the time dilation equation with numerical examples. Hewitt's speculates about "century hopping." Scenario of whirling around in a high-speed centrifuge to experience time dilation. Speculation of what might occur if one could travel faster than the speed of light. The consequences of a faster-than-light jump from one planet to another are entertained. Seeing in the past at all times. Speculations ab
