Vjavasi:

if total energy is relative how it is conserved




By conservation of energy we mean energy changes it form but amount of energy is same. Again this is relative to an observer.

E.g. For an observer standing under a coconut tree the coconut has PE as it falls down it gains KE and the amount of KE it gains is equal to amount of it's loss in PE neglecting other losses. But for an observer right on the middle of coconut tree the values of KE and PE differ due to his position, but KE+PE is different for different observers w.r.t position.

Yes, total and kinetic energies both are relative.

If i am not wrong lagragian and other classical mathematical formalism are centered around accelaration(dynamic systems) which is same for all inertial frames.....

Der_schuler:




The initiator's question is on KE. Secondly if you consider total energy (all forms of energy) the observer is also part of that energy. As long as the observer is not the part of the system it is relative.

remember as long as we are in the realm of classical mechanics....

Dts:


Yes! Energy is also relative




False....KE and PE seperately are but the sum total is always conserved!!!!

.Is energy relative also?...if energy is not relative what is the absolute frame to calculate kinetic energy.....


Yes, total and kinetic energies both are relative.

Vjavasi:




Yes! Energy is also relative. It varies from observer to observer.

Here one should remember that the basic question is that of relativity not about something being vector or scalar.

priciple of least action which is a application of calculus of variations to the lagrangian and one can actually derive all the laws of motion from the principle of least action

Vjavasi:

then kinetic energy should have no seperate physical meaning




very true...infact the idea of KE is in many ways misleading.....

Study the priciple of least action which is a application of calculus of variations to the lagrangian and one can actually derive all the laws of motion from the principle of least action

energy is a scalar and in not a vector......independent of the frame of reference

No....energy is a scalar and in not a vector......independent of the frame of reference, the energy of the moving object should be the same...

the traditional intrepretation of KE is not a natural for dynamical systems...read the concept of a Lagrangian

we calculate kinetic energy using speed.....if speed is relative to observer...for an observer in train everything else he sees outside the train is moving with same velocity in opposite direction...can he use same 1/2*m*v2 for the outside world ...Is energy relative also?...if energy is not relative what is the absolute frame to calculate kinetic energy.....
