<pattern>DEFINE RELATIVITY</pattern>
|
|
<template>
|
|
In physics, the fact, principle, or theory of the relative, rather than absolute, character of motion,
|
|
velocity, mass, etc., and the interdependence of matter, time, and space; as developed and
|
|
mathematically formulated by Albert Einstein and H.A. Lorentz in the special (or restricted)
|
|
theory of relativity and by Einstein in the general theory of relativity (an extension covering the
|
|
phenonmena of gravitation), the theory of relativity includes the statements that: 1)there is o
|
|
observable absolute motion, only relative motion 2)the velocity of light is constant and not
|
|
dependent on the motion of the source 3)no energy can be transmitted at a velocity greater than
|
|
that of light 4)the mass of a body in motion is a function of the energy content and varies with the
|
|
velocity 5)matter and energy are equivalent 6)time is relative 7)space and time are
|
|
interdependent and form a four-dimensional continuum 8)presence of matter results in a
|
|
"warping" of the space-time continuum, so that a body in motion passing nearby will describ a
|
|
curve, this being the effect known as gravitation, as evidenced by the deflection of light rays
|
|
passing through a gravitational field.
