For each pair, the associated value of γ is expressed as a fraction whose denominator, multiplied by γ, generates a product with five or fewer digits. Such numbers can be manipulated by handheld calculators without round-off error, permitting exact results for equations involving the factor γ as well as 1/γ in Einstein’s special theory of relativity. Similar student-friendly examples have recently been published for the calculation of Poynting vectors1 and relativistic velocities UR - https://doi.org/10.1119/5.0140962 ER -
