Relatividade: de Newton a Einstein

Abstract

This work is a consolidation of research on various topics related to Newton’s laws, the principle of inertia, general and restricted relativity, among other related subjects. Before delving into the subjects themselves, two forays are carried out: one, of a historical nature, which serves to understand the circumstances in which the theories of restricted and general relativity were developed; and another, which concerns the part of the theory of light, where its physical nature is explored, the absolute reference of the ether and the experiments of Young and Michelson and Morley.
