Which of the following is correct about Galilean transformation?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the properties of distance, momentum, and force in the context of Galilean transformation, indicating which of the given options accurately describes their invariance or variance.
Answer
Distance is invariant, momentum and force are variant under Galilean transformation.
Distance is invariant, momentum and force are variant under Galilean transformation.
Answer for screen readers
Distance is invariant, momentum and force are variant under Galilean transformation.
More Information
Galilean transformations apply to classical mechanics and help relate the coordinates and velocities of objects in different inertial frames. They assume absolute time and space without relativistic effects.
Tips
A common mistake is assuming that all quantities are invariant in Galilean transformations; only absolute space (distance) and time are assumed to be invariant.
