We have introduced the ideas of special relativity in quick succession because none of those ideas can really be understood in isolation. This chapter works through examples in some detail so you can practice applying the ideas and solidifying your understanding.We start with an overview of how to use spacetime diagrams to solve problems in special relativity, then we walk through examples ofmeasuring the length of a moving object; the train‐in‐tunnel paradox; velocity addition; and how clock readings are arranged so that each observer measures the other’s clocks as ticking slowly.

The problem of plane electromagnetic wave scattering by two concentrically layered dielectric spheres is investigated analytically using the modal expansion method. Two different solutions to this problem are obtained. In the first solution the boundary conditions are satisfied simultaneously at all spherical interfaces, while in the second solution an iterative approach is used and the boundary conditions are satisfied successively for each iteration. To impose the boundary conditions at the outer surface of the spheres, the translation addition theorem of the spherical vector wave functions is employed to express the scattered fields by one sphere in the coordiante system of the other sphere. Numerical results for the bistatic and back-scattering cross sections are presented graphically for various sphere sizes, layer thicknesses and permittivities, and angles of incidence.

AbstractWe study the growth of group endomorphisms, a generalization of the classical notion of growth of finitely generated groups, which is strictly related to algebraic entropy. We prove that the inner automorphisms of a group have the same growth type and the same algebraic entropy as the identity automorphism. Moreover, we show that endomorphisms of locally finite groups cannot have intermediate growth. We also find an example showing that the Addition Theorem for algebraic entropy does not hold for endomorphisms of arbitrary groups.
