O que é Espaço-Tempo? Uma introdução ao espaço-tempo e aos diagramas de Minkowski"

Special relativity is almost always presented through the concepts of "time dilation" and "length contraction", which have already been discussed in this series. Although these are perfectly correct concepts, they reflect the outdated tendency to treat space and time as separate entities. But now you will realize that the reality is much deeper: for the theory of relativity, the only thing that makes sense is the interdependent relationship between space and time; the two are united in a single physical entity: space-time. This interdependence is graphically described by space-time diagrams, which not only facilitate the analysis of relative movements but also allow us to have a better physical idea of ​​what the past, present and future are. In this video, you will have your first contact with space-time diagrams, which are the stage for the theory of relativity to act. • Follow Verve Científica on social media: instagram.com/Verve.Cientifica facebook.com/VerveCientifica e-mail: [email protected] The Verve Científica project is supported by the Federal University of São Paulo (ICT-UNIFESP) through its university extension program.

Pirani also coordinated the 1985 edition, after the author's death. It was this last revised version that was used in this series.
