Frame of reference — A frame of reference in physics, may refer to a coordinate system or set of axes within which to measure the position, orientation, and other properties of objects in it, or it may refer to an observational reference frame tied to the state of… … Wikipedia
Accelerated reference frame — In theoretical physics, an accelerated reference frame is usually a coordinate system or frame of reference, that undergoes a constant and continual change in velocity over time as judged from an inertial frame. An object in an accelerated frame… … Wikipedia
Non-inertial reference frame — A non inertial reference frame is a frame of reference that is under acceleration.[1] The laws of physics in such a frame do not take on their most simple form, as required by the theory of special relativity.[2][3] To explain the motion of… … Wikipedia
Light-dragging effects — In physics, there are several situations in which the motion of matter might be said to drag light .Under special relativity s simplified model it is assumed that these light dragging effects do not happen, and that the speed of light is… … Wikipedia
