State Einstein's postulates of the special theory of relativity. ii. Write down Einstein's mass-energy equivalence formula. iii. In the case of two inertial frames of reference, S' moving at a velocity v relative to S, only along the xx' – axes, write down the relativistic space-time coordinates transformations from the S to the S' frame. Explaining how, deduce from these, the transformations from the the S' to the S frame. i. [2 marks] [2 marks] [4 marks] iv. In deriving the Lorentz's space-time coordinates transformations, it was prescribed that x' = a11x + a12t; t' = azıx + azzt, and we found that a1 = Showing how, %3D deduce the values of the other coefficients.
