The Principle of Relativity is a phenomenon described by Einstein. It states that physical laws work in the same way for an observer in uniform motion as for observers at rest (e.g.- a room in constant motion is viewed as the same as a room not in motion). This principle can be applied to Newton's First Law of Motion. | |||

Short Description of Topic
The Principle of Relativity is a phenomenon described by Einstein. It states that physical laws work in the same way for an observer in uniform motion as for observers at rest (e.g.- a room in constant motion is viewed as the same as a room not in motion). This principle can be applied to Newton's First Law of Motion.
