Investigating the Principle of Relativity and the Principle of Equivalence in Classical Mechanics: Design and Evaluation of a Teaching–Learning Sequence Based on Experiments and Simulations

Education Sciences, 2023
We designed a teaching–learning sequence on relative motion in classical mechanics, based on the model of educational reconstruction and on the fundamental design principle of highlighting those conceptual elements which could be valuable in the future ...

Can Lorentz transformations be determined by the null Michelson-Morley result?

Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Física
The so-called principle of relativity is able to fix a general coordinate transformation which differs from the standard Lorentzian form only by an unknown speed which cannot in principle be identified with the light speed.
