2015年12月22日 · These experiments cast significant observational doubt on the Galilean idea of relativity as it applies to light, that the velocities of the emitted light and the source simply add together. We know now that this is wrong and that special relativity must be taken into account, but that was not always the case and had to be inferred from ...

2012年5月31日 · The structure that needs to be preserved is the Euclidean one in a 3D subspace and time difference between events. Therefore automorphisms of Galilean space-time, known as Galilean transformations, can be written as (for convenience we choose the basis so that the last three basis vectors span the 3D Euclidean subspace) [tex] \begin{bmatrix} t ...

2017年5月18日 · The problem with your attempt to create a problem with Galilean invariance is that you don't use the correct 2nd Law, which is $$\dot{\vec{p}}=\vec{F}.$$ To analyze symmetry principles the most elegant way is to use the Hamiltonian formalism which lives in phase space, i.e., to work with position and conjugate-momentum variables.

2011年12月14日 · You should be aware that we have not used the Galilean Transform in filling out this table. Rather it is our description of what is happening: the observer remains at rest and the passenger is traveling at 40 mph. Now let's use the Galilean Transform to convert all ten locations into the primed frame using the equation x' = x-vt where v = 40:

2012年10月12日 · What the quotes mean to say, is that if c was infinite then there would be no difference between Galilean and Lorenz transformations. The sentence "in Galilean relativity the speed of light is infinite" should rather say: "in Galilean relativity the invariant speed is infinite, while in Special relativity the invariant speed is finite".

2020年3月31日 · Galilean spacetime is represented as a fiber bundle by considering the 4-dimensional space-time continuum as the base space and the set of all possible velocities as the fiber space. This means that for every point in the base space, there is a corresponding set of velocities in the fiber space.

2006年1月29日 · If he doesn't, then the laws of physics (specifically the equation for momentum) are not *invariant* under a Galilean transformation. But it turns out they are.: If the object has velocity v = dx/dt in K, then in K' its velocity is dx'/dt = d(x - ut)/dt = dx/dt - u = v - u. So we have established that v' = v - u in a Galilean transformation.

2013年6月26日 · Both Galilean and Keplerian designs are afocal. The essential difference is that the Galilean places the exit pupil on the inside of the telescope, while the Keplerian places it outside of the telescope. Thus, the Galilean design suffers from …

2017年12月8日 · Why do proofs of the Galilean transformations seem to approach it as a special case within Lorentz group, rather than give a proof independent on any jargon that arose from special relativity. A 1903 the proof that Galilean transformations form a group would not involve first understanding the proof that Lorentz transformations form a group.

2020年3月15日 · I need to diagram a galilean teliscope for a project at school using a ray diagram. I know how to do the ray diagram for the first convex lens, but how does it work with the second concave lens. It always makes the image smaller for me. Does anyone know how to do this? Pictures would be great!
