Reason: An object appears to be in motion in relation to one observer and may appear to be at rest in relation to the other observer. (A) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of the assertion.
(B) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of the assertion. (C) A is true but R is false.
(D) A is false but R is true.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

An inertial frame of reference in classical physics and special relativity possesses the property that in this frame of reference a body with zero net force acting upon it does not accelerate; that is, such a body is at rest or moving at a constant velocity.[1] An inertial frame of reference can be defined in analytical terms as a frame of reference that describes time and space homogeneously, isotropically, and in a time-independent manner.[2] Conceptually, the physics of a system in an inertial frame have no causes external to the system.[3] An inertial frame of reference may also be called an inertial reference frame, inertial frame, Galilean reference frame, or inertial space.
