Introduction to Relativity

Relativity is a theorem formulated by Albert Einstein, which states that space and time are relative, and all motion must be relative to a frame of reference. It is a notion that states’ laws of physics are the same everywhere. This theory is simple but hard to understand.

It states:

  • There is no absolute reference frame. One can measure velocity if the object or momentum is only in relation to other objects.
  • The speed of light is constant irrespective of who measures it or how fast the person measuring it is moving.

Albert Einstein’s Theory of Relativity encompasses two theories: Special Relativity Theory and General Relativity Theory.
