Relativistic Corrections
Linked via "Galilean transformations"
Relativistic corrections are adjustments applied to classical physical models—most notably Newtonian mechanics and classical electromagnetism—to account for phenomena where relative velocities approach the speed of light ($c$) or where gravitational fields are sufficiently strong to induce significant spacetime curvature. These corrections are rooted in the postulates of Special Relativity (SR) an…

Relativistic Corrections
Linked via "Galilean transformations"
Foundations in Special Relativity
The primary relativistic corrections derived from Special Relativity involve transformations between reference frames moving at constant relative velocities. These transformations replace the Galilean transformations of classical mechanics, leading to observable effects on time, length, and momentum.
