Help with Specific Relativity!

[Blitz]

Guys, I need help in this subject at the moment.

Here are the equations:
• Time Dilation: t=t_o/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
• Length Contraction: L=L_o*sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)

I've been making a program to calculate an answer to each variable (t, t_o, v, L, L_o). So far the original equation works, but the others don't work when I do them by hand and compare them to fellow classmates. HELP ANYONE!

 I spotted atleast one problem Time Dilation isn't  t=to/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)  it's 1/2BH dumbass

This shit is why I switched from a major in Computer Science to a dual major of History & Political Science.  God I hate math.

Spanke, I think you're the dumbass. One, if you work 1/2BH out, it will equal the equation I put up. Go read your science book, you retard.

The round-trip transit time of light along the horizontal arm is straightforwardly calculated as t(h) = (2L/c)/(1-v^2/c^2).
The round-trip transit time of light along the vertical arm is straightforwardly calculated as t(v) = (2L/c)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
As t(h) is observed to be equal to t(v), L has been assumed  by Lorentz to contract by sqrt(1-v^2/c^2).
Hence, t(h) = (2L*sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)/c)/(1-v^2/c^2) = (2L/c)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2), which is identical to t(v).

yeah, hmm, okay... NERD!

O FOR THE LOVE OF GOD..close it, lock it, kill it..make it stop.

 

Sheix <----makes purty piksures fer a livin and don' need no steenkin numbers.

(blitz...gaming forum...u stop that right now..but good luck anyway)
I just dont see how that formula is gonna help you formulate your right-wing secessionist fiefdom tho....

[Blitz]

Sheix, I'm suprised you even posted on this thread. For one, it was about to die until you posted. Two, this is General Gossip, so it doesn't mean it's strictly for gaming news or gossip.

Blitz

PS For some reason I think Sheix is a 20 year old retard...

[(SiX)Sheixhundt]

1. I was bored, and you could use a sense of humor...all them formulae done jimmied yer workins'
2. i included the 'Good Luck anyways" part to hopefully ward off the most SURELY impending insult. At the time was sincerely hoping BFG was able to provide you some assistance, god knows I couldnt help you if i had the answer in front of me. GG for calling me a retard in return.
3. refer to #1
4. refer to #2
5. I'm 34, and although I rode the short bus with pads and helmet when younger, Im most certainly NOT retarded..I found out how to make more money with a pencil and paint brush than my physician friends without having to know all that crap, HENCE KEEPING MY GOOD NATURED, HUMANITIES_BASED SENSE OF HUMOR INTACT.
5. In addition to being richly artistic, evidently I'm psychic....just knew you'd have to take a shot at me, although i have no idea why. Thought you might laugh along in seeing the humor in an artist asking the formula-savvy guys to quit hurting my brain.
6. Of course i know this is a general gossip thing, and you are Free to get help, as am i free to add some comic releif. Don't take yourself so seriously

[BFG]

1. I  love  Sheixhundt
2. Your welcome for the help Blitz don't mind me.
3. refer to #1
4. All i did was 30 seconds research on the internet, reading and the use of Google is not brain surgury - i havn't got a freaking clue about that stuff, i think i take the same line as Shiex there.
5. Sheix is far from a retard - and its a little more than ironic that your the one writing that blitz... i won't go on.
6. Cookies are a mans best friend, but a cookie is for breakfast and not for looking at.

Yeah thae Arts are much more forgiving.
I switched to Political Cartoons to get away
from the controversy...

...when I was in grad school Mrs.Cheney came
to speak tho, and I got sucked into Pure Politics.
She told me the story about how the VicePresident
was the guy in her class who Didn't want to go
to college....and look where he eneded up.....

unspecified bunker (joke).

I think my brain just exploded... 

[bronto]

Yeah thae Arts are much more forgiving.

sorry but if you're trying to make money off those cartoons, i think you'll find the arts to be the most unforgiving of all. i don't want to be mean, but those look like 8th grade notebook doodles.

[BFG]

wow thats an 'old school' website! i can't remember the last time i saw a beauty like that, all hand coded im guessing?

[bronto]

there's really no such thing as hand coding.

[BFG]

ok ok so you can't chisel the individual letters and numbers out on a slab of stone then run around it going "ooga booga" while thumping your chest. But do do get the odd weirdo who decides not to use any form of site builder and instead opts to write the code in a word processor or somthing crazy!

[bronto]

i can make real basic html sites like that. i hate the nerds that get all uppity when someone uses dreamweaver just because it's not natural or something...i don't even know i just hate those nerds.

[BFG]

god i know exactly what you mean bronoto - its the "the quality of hand written code is so much better you cant use crappy apps like dreamweaver the code they make is so bad and so slow and my hand written code is so pure and good" etc approach -  personally i haven't ever seen a really good looking 'hand coded' site -but fair play to anyone who can produce stuff by hand at the same speed and to the same quality of someone armed with dreamweaver or equivelant!

[X1|MARCO]

I know all about this Blitz!

NOW PAY ATTENTION
this is known in the tibitian numerology world, as the "gozintas methodology"

2(two) gozinta 4(four) 2(two) times [or]  2G4=2

4(four) gozinta 8(eight) 2(two) times  [or] 4G8=2

just a little helper tip  ***they all equal 2 i think***

glad i could be of help Blitz
