Paradoxo dos gêmeos: uma abordagem para o curso básico de física

Abstract

The relative measures between reference systems have always been historically studied. In Ancient Greece itself, problems arise that led Galileo years later, to construct the solution of problems related to the movement of bodies. However, his conclusions came to be questioned with the formulation of electromagnetism, corrected by Lorentz and interpreted by Einstein in the Theory os Relativity Restricted. Thus, in order to promote an exploration of this theory, we seek from this research, to identify the way in which the thematic about the paradox of the twins has been worked in the literature of higher education, besides verifying the depth of details presented and, from this, to take a small approach to the pertinent doubts, since the same is a classic problem and is usually presented in the literature when exploring TRR issues. The chosen literature is located in the main books of the graduation in Physics adopted in Brazil. In this way, we believe that this work can bring contributions to teachers and students when working this content in Physical education.
