\section{Special Relativity}
\subsection{Lorenz Boosts}
For a boost in the x direction,
\begin{equation}
\begin{split}
t' = \gamma ( t - v x) \\
x' = \gamma (x - vt) \\
y' = y \\
z' = z \\
\end{split}
\end{equation}
More special relativity equations:
\begin{equation}
\begin{split}
l' = \gamma l \\
\end{split}
\end{equation}
where
\begin{equation}
\gamma = \sqrt{1-v^2}
\end{equation}
\subsection{Principle of Equivalence}
\bullet elevators in a feely falling elevator on earth experience the same physics as someone who is not in the elevator. From this you can get the bending of light
