Where can I find the theory of relativity explained in easy but informative language?

Answer 1

Albert Einstein himself wrote a short book (114 pages + appendix) that is surprisingly readable. It's called
*Relativity The special and the general theory*.
The subtitle is "A clear explanation that anyone can understand".

Answer 2

Right here. Put your hand on a hot stove, a minute can fell like an hour. Put your hands on a hot woman, an hour can feel like a minute. Its all relative. That is the simplest explanation ever come up with for the theory of relativity

Answer 3

See if you can't find this independent movie made about 20 years ago called "Insignificance." In it, Marilyn Monroe temporarily leaves Joe DiMaggio to hang out with Albert Einstein. She explains the theory to him using balloons, flashlights and toy cars. It might sound like a stupid idea, but it is explained in such a way that a layperson could understand it.

Answer 4

Newtonian Physics considers parts which includes length and mass to be constants. the only consistent in Relativity is the fee of light. From this are derived equations that are somewhat effortless yet contradict Newtonian techniques. length, Mass and Time all remember on the fee of one observer relative to a diverse. something shifting relative to the rest is definitely in a diverse time-physique however the outcomes are in basic terms major at velocities drawing close the fee of light.

Answer 5

what do you want to know...E=MC2 Energy equals Mass times the speed of light squared...yes C ( celeritas)= 186,282.39 mps or 670,616,629.384 Miles per hour...discovery or the history channel has good resources on this, look up the web sites for some reading.
