41
Relativity
Times and places when events occur as observed from different points of view
42
What are the two pronciples of relativity
There is no preffered reference frame and the principle of the consistancy of the speed of light
43
Michelson Morley experiment?
* wanted to find the either | * found that the speed of light wad constant
44
Speed of light can be determined using
V=d/t
45
Who suggested that time is relative
Einstein
