Lorentz Transformation of Velocity Calculator
The Lorentz Transformation of Velocity Calculator will calculate the:
- Lorentz transformation of velocity in relativistic events when the components of velocity in the system S connected to the Earth and the relative velocity of two systems are given.
Calculation Parameters: All relativistic events are supposed to occur in vacuum; all systems are inertial.
