A Simple Method for Deriving the Formulas of Relativity

Abstract:

In this paper, a new and simple method for deriving the formulas of Relativity is introduced. Einstein derived the formulas of Relativity by applying two hypotheses about light velocity, but this process was rather complicated and hard to understand. Nuclear physics has been developing for nearly a hundred years and has accumulated plenty of experiment results. Now it is feasible to derive Einstein’s formulas by employing the experiment results of nuclear physics. According to the result that energy is an expression form of mass, E=m can be obtained. We differential the above formula, adopt several steps of simple mathematical calculation, a simple differential equation can be obtained. Take the result of “light velocity is the velocity limit of a moving object” as the boundary condition of the differential equation, we get energy formula and mass formula. Length formula and time formula can also be easily derived based on the experiment result of particle speed in a cyclotron. As all the formulas of Relativity in this paper were derived by applying true experimental results from nuclear physics rather than hypotheses, they are reliable and easy to understand.
