vitality00 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 What are the limitations of lamor's equation for finding the power emitted from a charge formula --> P = (2/3) * (q^2 * a^2/c^3) q = charge a = acceleration c = speed of lightt I was also told that lamor's equation must be "transformed" in order to find the amount of power emitted from a charge moving close the speed of light (something about relativity) - so how does one "transform" this equation for relativity The information i got was from this link, it is pretty simply to understand http://www.cv.nrao.edu/course/astr534/LarmorRad.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
