Special and General Relativity; 7.1 Time Dilation; 7.2 Relativistic Travel7.3 The Relativistic RocketThis book provides visualizations of many topics in general physics. The aim is to have an interactive MATLAB script wherein the user can vary parameters in a specific problem and then immediately see the outcome by way of dynamic "movies" of the response of the system in question. MATLAB tools are used throughout and the software scripts accompany the text in Symbolic Mathematics, Classical Mechanics, Electromagnetism, Waves and Optics, Gases and Fluid Flow, Quantum Mechanics, Special and General Relativity, and Astrophysics and Cosmology. The emphasis is on building up an intuition by runninPhysicsData processingNumerical analysisComputer programsElectronic books.PhysicsData processing.Numerical analysisComputer programs.519.4028553042Green Dan65483MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910464512403321One hundred physics visualizations using MATLAB2008039UNINA
