Popis: A use of spreadsheets to model special relativistic phenomena is presented, based on the connection between electric and magnetic fields in special relativity, suitable for use with A-level students. The time dilation equation is used to carry out transformations between reference frames that show the connection between the fields quantitatively and allow further investigations to be carried out.
