interacting particles, transformation between frames is simple because all that is necessary is to apply the Galilean transformation to all velocities. Since...

Galilean transformations If κ = 0 then we get the Galilean-Newtonian kinematics with the Galilean transformation, [ t ′ x ′ ] = [ 1 0 − v 1 ] [ t x ] , {\displaystyle...

relativity is the replacement of the Galilean transformations of classical mechanics by the Lorentz transformations. (See Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism...

two reference frames are related by the Lorentz transformation instead of the Galilean transformation. Consider, for example, one reference frame moving...

relativity is the replacement of the Galilean transformations of Newtonian mechanics with the Lorentz transformations. Time and space cannot be defined separately...

Three main forms of the equivalence principle are in current use: weak (Galilean), Einsteinian, and strong.: 6  Some proposals also suggest finer divisions...
