How to Solve Lorentz Transformations
Description
A detailed tutorial on Lorentz transformations. Step by step tutorial including several examples of Lorentz transformations for reference.
Overview
A Lorentz transformation is a way of describing how two different measurements of space and time can be converted into one frame of reference. This is because it was discovered that people who are moving at different velocities will report different times of certain events, or even a different order of events. The speed or velocity at which they are moving will throw things off. So by using a Lorentz transformation, you can get two different accounts to match up. Typically, a Lorentz transformation is a linear transformation.
