Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the principle of relativity according to Einstein?
  • Step 1: Understand what 'relativity' means. It refers to how different observers can see the same event differently based on their motion.
  • Step 2: Learn about 'inertial frames of reference.' These are situations where objects are either at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line.
  • Step 3: Know that Einstein's principle of relativity says the laws of physics (like gravity or motion) work the same way for everyone, no matter how fast they are moving, as long as they are in an inertial frame.
  • Step 4: Realize that this means if two people are moving at constant speeds, they will both see the same physical laws apply to their observations.
