There are 5 lessons in this physics tutorial covering Classical Principle of Relativity. The tutorial starts with an introduction to Classical Principle of Relativity and is then followed with a list of the separate lessons, the tutorial is designed to be read in order but you can skip to a specific lesson or return to recover a specific physics lesson as required to build your physics knowledge of Classical Principle of Relativity. you can access all the lessons from this tutorial below.
In this Physics tutorial, you will learn:
How many variables do we need to know in order to determine the position of an object at any instant when moving in space?
What are parametric equations in math? How many parametric equations can you use to describe the motion?
Do you think the velocity of a moving object is the same for all inertial frames of reference? (To answer this question consider two cars moving in opposite directions when viewed from the ground and from inside any of cars).
Do you think relativity can be applied in other fields of physics beside mechanics? Remember what happens when moving a magnet towards a coil to produce induced current in the coil. Can the same phenomenon occur when we move the coil toward a stationary magnet?
From your previous knowledge, can you respond whether is there anything invisible that fills the space of universe or not?
All these interesting but tricky questions will get answer in this tutorial, in which again, we will deal with classical theory of relativity, which act as a background for more advanced topics we will discuss in the next articles of this section.
