Clocks synchronization in spacetime
Source publication
The physical situation consists of two observers S and S ′ which are in rectilinear and uniform translational motion relative to each other. The x and x ′ axes coincide and the motion is along them in 3-D. Each observer has a clock located at the origin of the 3-D axes. The observers emit electromagnetic TV signals containing the image of their own...

The properties of the Minkowski spacetime are investigated, the Minkowski metric is proved, the Lorentz transformation is derived.
Special relativity and Lorentz electrodynamics, despite their foundational differences, employ transformation sets considered identical, hence with no discernible predictive discrepancies to date. Due to their different physical assumptions, it is pointed out the distinct physical interpretations these theories must assign to such transformations....
We consider two inertial frames S and and suppose that frame moves, for simplicity, in a single direction: the X -direction of frame S with a constant velocity v as measured in frame S. Using homogeneity of space and time we derive a modified Lorentz Transformation (LT) between two inertial reference frames without using the second postulate of Ein...
Nesse artigo, apresentamos vários paradoxos aparentes da relatividade restrita e suas respectivas soluções. Esse paradoxos aparecem desde o advento da relatividade, em 1905, e de fato nunca são paradoxos. Do ponto de vista didático, os paradoxos são uma excelente ferramenta de aprendizado. Eles levam o estudante a confrontar, e abandonar, vários co...
Provides the assumption that the spacetime is absolute and the coordinates are suitable to it.
