DeepBean | Deriving the Lorentz Transformations | Special Relativity @deepbean | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 2 days ago
In this third video of the Special Relativity series, we derive the Lorentz transformations, which map events in one reference frame to another reference frame that moves at a constant relative velocity. We also demonstrate how these transformations can be used to derive the phenomena of time dilation and length contraction that we explored more informally in the last video.
