Theory of Relativity

Theory of Relativity:

1. Special Theory of Relativity:

In 1905 Einstein published his paper on this theory. In this theory he simply took the fact that speed of light is constant as explained by michaleson and morley in late 1800.By tooking this fact he simply explained that time is not constant every where as told by Newton.This phenomenon is called "Time Dilation". He also came to this point that when you are travelling in speed of light every thing around you contracted in a single point. It's called "Length Contraction". Later he proved that any particle which has mass can't travel in speed of light.

          2. General Theory of Relativity:

In 1915 Einstein came up with another theory simply named as General Theory of Relativity.This theory is a massive example of his imaginational power. This theory not only put einstein in global recognization but with this he simply destroyed the question that what's the source of Gravity.This theory says that Space is a fabric of space-time and Gravity is the curvature of that space-time. As famous American Theoretical Physicist John Wheeler told" SPACE-TIME SAYS MATTER HOW TO MOVE AND MATTER SAYS SPACE-TIME HOW TO CURVE".This curvature depends on the mass of the matter. The more it has mass the more it will curve the space. And with this curvature, time will also vary. Time with slows down near massive objects.
