Abstract
We report the examples of the teaching materials of physics generated by using \ketpic, focusing on the Lorentz contraction. The represented examples are the observed images of the moving objects at the speed of 95 percent of the speed of light $c$, where a cubic and a sphere are taken as the objects. We also show the observed images of lines of electric and magnetic forces around the moving charged objects. The obtained images are largely distorted on account of the effect of the Lorentz contraction and the fact that the speed of light is limited and the same value in any frame.
