Does anyone have a reference that clearly explains the foundation for
Minkowski Space, its illustration via the diagrams, and the four
dimensional description using a (1,1,1,-1) metric (or vice versa). I
would like to present a more graphical view in my AP physics course as
well as the more traditional approach.
Also, how do ya'll feel about teaching a new topic or two after the AP
exam. Or, what do you do to fill the time? And, is it not possible to
schedule the AP exams for a time directly after the school year or
perhaps closer to the end of May and the beginning of June?
Thanks for your reponses.
