 In special relativity, the Lorentz factor is a number that describes the effect of speed on various physical properties when the speed is significant relative to the speed of light. Mathematically, the Lorentz factor is given as:

Use 3 × 108 m/s for the speed of light, c. Create variables for c and the speed v and from them a variable lorentz for the Lorentz factor.
