Special relativity

Abstract

An inertial frame is one in which a freely falling particle obeys Newton’s first law (i.e., continues in a state of uniform motion). Classically, we have the following: Galilean Principle of Relativity: The laws of dynamics are invariant between all inertial frames. In other words, all inertial observers (at rest in an inertial frame) will get experimentally verify the same dynamical laws.
