Question: In a certain inertial frame S, the electric field E and the magnetic field B are neither parallel nor perpendicular, at a particular space-time point.
In a certain inertial frame S, the electric field E and the magnetic field B are neither parallel nor perpendicular, at a particular space-time point. Show that in a different inertial system S moving relative to S with velocity v given by the fields E and B are parallel at that point. Is there a frame in which the two are perpendicular?
