Mechanism

Follow the mechanism step by step and distinguish what causes the change from what is merely observed.

This extension applies that lens specifically to Special Relativity.

Special Relativity

The laws of physics and speed of light are invariant in inertial frames. Spacetime intervals organise time dilation, length contraction and relativistic energy-momentum.

Core checkpoint: Relativity changes relations between measurements, not the local validity of physics.

Physics Year 2: Fields, Optics and Modern Physics — Mechanism: Which statement best captures the core checkpoint for Special Relativity?

Relativity changes relations between measurements, not the local validity of physics.

Choose a solution before defining the evidence.

Ignore units, limits and boundary cases.

Assume the first result applies in every context.
