Relativity - the idea that everything is relative, right? Relative to your perspective, yourupbringing, your age, your place and orientation in space and time? Except that plenty of things- in fact, perhaps most things - aren't relative.For example, George Washington was the first president of the United States, World WarI happened before the movie Star Wars was made, this picture shows three apples, andso on.It is true that certain things ARE relative to one's perspective - is the apple on yourleft, or my right? - is 50°F hot or cold? - is a car fast or slow? big or small? - andthat's precisely what makes these concepts less interesting to scientists. In physics(and in most science), anything that changes if you change perspective can&a...
