- Homework Statement
- I was studying James B. Hartle's book - Gravity: an introduction to Einstein's General Relativity -, and in one section he expanded an expression in powers of 1/c², but I couldn't follow what he did. I do know this is related to a Taylor Series Expansion, and I do know how to construct the taylor expansion for a function f(x) [or even for a function of several variables], but I have no idea on how to proceed with this kind of expansion presented on the book.
- Relevant Equations
- e = \frac {mc^2+E} {mc^2} = 1 + \frac {2E} {mc^2} + ...
As I said before, I really have no idea on how to proceed.
