transforms

n. (plural of transform English) vb. (en-third-person singular of: transform)

Usage examples of "transforms".

But the appearance of this value in the laws of electromagnetism meant that the laws were not covariant under Galilean transforms between inertial frames.

Following Lorentz, but with an aim that was general and not restricted to a subset of physics, Einstein set out to discover a system of transforms that would make this true.

As goddess of the crossroads, where offerings were traditionally left to call up her blessings, she is regarded as the supreme goddess of witches and witchcraft and is akin to the Bone Goddess who transforms death into new more perfect life.

Thus, Newton's Laws of Motion are covariant with respect to transforms between two reference frames moving relative to one another uniformly in a straight line.

Laws derived from mechanics, such as the conservation of energy, momentum, and angular momentum, were found to be covariant with respect to Galilean transforms and afforded the mechanistic foundations of classical science.

And yet an incompatibility existed in that they were not covariant under the classical transforms of space and time coordinates between inertial frames.

Two assumptions that few people would question were implicit in the form of the Galilean transforms: (1) that observers in all frames will measure time the same, as if by some universal clock that ticks the same everywhere.

But the new transforms resulted in distances being reduced in the direction of motion relative to it, and it was this fact which, through an unfortunate coincidence of effects, made detection of the motion unobservable.

If the relativity principle was to be observed, and the new transforms applied, how could they still be compatible with Newton's long-established mechanics, which was enthroned as being consistent with the classical Galilean transforms, not with the new Lorentzian ones?

Recall the two assumptions we mentioned earlier that the Galilean transforms imply: that space and time intervals are invariant.

But the space and time that they resolve into is different in different frames—which is what the transforms of SRT are saying.

But it isn't really, since the Lorentz Transforms that yield the distortions were constructed to account for those experimental results in the first place.

To every desire corresponds immediately an image or illusion which transforms this desire into reality, thanks to a sort of pseudo-hallucination or play.

No objective observation or reasoning is possible: there is only a perpetual play which transforms perceptions and creates situations in accordance with the subject's pleasure [this stage is a constant source of envy to the Romantics].

The mind absorbs all your consciousness and transforms it into mind stuff.
