Yes.

In the limit where the velocity difference between two observers gets ever closer to zero, the equations of spacial relativity reduce to the Newtonian equations. Indeed, if this were not true, then special relativity would be *wrong*.

Similarly, general relativity gives the same answers as Newtonian gravity for the cases in which Newtonian gravity applies.

When was einsteins theory of relativity published?

The theory of relativity is actually a conglomerate of two theories which Einstein theorized at different times. Special relativity was published in 1905 and changed the scientific world until some of the ideas could not hold up to scrutiny. It was then that Einstein published the theory of general relativity in 1916.


What does compound equality mean?

Compound equality refers to an expression in which two or more conditions or equations are combined using logical operators, typically "and" or "or." In this context, all conditions must be satisfied for the entire expression to be considered true. For example, in mathematics or programming, compound equality can involve inequalities or equations that must hold simultaneously. It is often used to analyze multiple constraints or relationships between variables.


What job did Einstein hold at the time he published the theory of special relativity?

Albert Einstein was working as a patent clerk at the Swiss Patent Office in Bern when he published the theory of special relativity in 1905.


What significance do Maxwell's equations hold in the realm of physics, and what did God say about them?

Maxwell's equations are a set of fundamental equations in physics that describe how electric and magnetic fields interact. They are crucial in understanding electromagnetism and have had a profound impact on the development of modern technology. As for what God said about them, there is no direct reference or statement in religious texts regarding Maxwell's equations.


Why does the laws of classical physics break down as you approach the speed of light?

At speeds near the speed of light, the formulae from the Theory of Relativity show that there are discrepancies with classical physics - for example, in adding velocities. These discprepancies have been verified by many experiments. In theory the discrepancies arise at any speed, but if the speed is much lower than the speed of light, the difference between classical physics and the more accurate Theory of Relativity is so insignificant that it can be ignored, and you can safely use the simpler formulae of classical physics.
