Perplexity:The first postulate is not a truism. It is possible to imagine a world
"The First Postulate of Special Relativity
Statement of the First Postulate
The first postulate of special relativity, also known as the principle
of relativity, states:
The laws of physics are the same in all inertial frames of
reference."
"truism
/ˈtrˌizƏm/ n. a statement that is obviously true and says nothing new
or interesting. —truistic/trˈistik/ adj." -Oxford American.
where it is not true and to believe that we actually live in a such
world.Your reply does not explain how it is not obviously true and nothing newI did explain. And what I said was indeed known long before Einstein.
that wasn't already known long before Einstein.
If the first postulate were a truism nobody would ever have believed
otherwise. But ancinet literature shows that the opposite belief was
common.
So, Einstein added nothing new. How does that provide a basis for hisNo earlier theory had both the first and the second postulate as
new theory? That he accepted the consensus view since Newton?
