Relative Motion Flashcards
1
Q
Relativity in Motion (Relative Velocity)
A
Velocity of an object in relation to another object
2
Q
Importance of Galilean Transformation Equations
A
Allows transform in quantities measured in one inertial reference frame to their values in another reference frame if both are at a constant velocity.
3
Q
What are the same in any inertial reference frames with constant velocity?
A
Acceleration, lengths, and time intervals.
4
Q
Galilean Equation
A
tb + ta = t
When t is a point in one-dimensional time in Galilean System of Coordinates
