Resumen
Educação Superior::Ciências Exatas e da Terra::Física Educação Superior::Ciências Exatas e da Terra::Astronomia Presents a class of Professor Charles Bailyn that speaks about the development of post-Newtonian approximations from Newtonian terms. Several problems are worked out in calculating mass, force and energy. A discussion follows about how concepts like mass and velocity are approached differently in Newtonian physics and Relativity. The Professor also explains about speed of light and the possibility of traveling faster than the speed of light
