Two postulates of relativity: 1: laws of physics are same for all observers, despite how fast they are moving with respect to each other. 2: speed of light has same value measured by all observers despite how fast they are moving relative to each other. Special relativity is valid for inertial reference frames (frame where newton's 1st law holds) and explains time dilation (phenomena in which a clock moving [with v close to c] in respect to a clock in an inertial reference frame, appears to be running slower) and length contraction (length of an object moving at a v close to c appears to be contracted [in the direction of it's motion], for an observer in an inertial reference frame) relativistic modifications need to be made for kinematics if velocity is close enough to c. these modifications involve the gamma factor. General relativity is about the principle of equivalence: the effects of a gravitational field are equivalent to acceleration. this basically leads to the idea that gravity can bend spacetime, which means all objects (including light) follow geodesic paths. General rel expands special rel to include accelerating frames of reference
What else can I help you with?
What was albert einstiens most famous theory?
Albert Einstein's most famous theory is the theory of relativity, which is divided into two parts: special relativity and general relativity. Special relativity deals with the relationship between space and time, while general relativity describes how gravity affects the curvature of space-time.
What was einstiens first name?
Einstiens first name was Albert. His name is Albert Einstien
Who was albert einstiens wife?
A woman
What is law of relativity?
The principle of relativity means that physical measurements are independent of an observer's velocity. Or perhaps you are referring to the Theory of Relativity; since this is a complicated topic, better read the corresponding Wikipedia article.
What was albert einstiens favourite snack?
spagetti
When did the law of relativity begin?
The theory of relativity, proposed by Albert Einstein, was first introduced in 1905. This theory consists of two parts: the special theory of relativity and the general theory of relativity. The special theory of relativity deals with the relationship between space and time, while the general theory of relativity extends this to include gravity.
Under what condition is all three law of motion broken?
theory of relativity
Is energy a element compound or a mixture?
None of these. It is energy. It is not matter. But according to the law of relativity, energy can be converted into matter.

An example of a theory and an law?
A theory is an idea system with a lot of evidence to support it--for example, the theory of evolution. A law (in science) is an idea system with proof attached to it--no contradictions--example, the law of gravitation.
When did Albert Einstein propose the theory of relativity?
Special Relativity 1905 General Relativity completed 1915 published 1916
