Hi,
is there any general formula to find out the final velocity w, happened by a boost in x direction forst and then to y direction?
I could find the boost matrices for both and I know it's not purely another boost, rather a boost and a rotation, but I am really confused which formula to use to find w.
does the relativistic velocity addition formula apply here ? (u+v)/(1+uv/c^2)?
