Two Relativistic Paradoxes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 September 2017
Extract
It has been argued from time to time [1] that the special theory of relativity is suitable for first year undergraduates reading mathematics or physics at British Universities. The pedagogical value of this subject is considerable, since it introduces conceptual problems, whose solutions require clear thought, but only elementary mathematics. The teaching of this subject can therefore bring about a useful broadening in a student’s intellectual equipment.
