The Principle of Relativity<\/h1>\n

<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/strong> The principle of relativity asserts that observations depend on the inertial frame, but in such a way that physical laws remain consistent. This class will present the concepts of inertial reference frame and the foundations that allow for the transformations between the coordinates observed by different inertial reference frames in the contexts of Newtonian physics and special relativity.<\/em><\/p>\n
