A.5.2 (HL)—Galilean relativity Topic Practice
IB Physics syllabusPhysics SL/HLFirst assessment 2025

Practise applying Galilean relativity by treating time as absolute and keeping the same physical law in every inertial frame.

How this is tested

  • state the shared postulate that the laws of physics are the same in all inertial frames
  • use the Galilean assumption of absolute time when transferring a time value between frames
  • decide which force is larger by requiring the same net-force direction in each frame
