Galilean Transformations
Galilean transformations are mathematical rules used in classical physics to relate the measurements of space and time between two observers moving at constant velocities relative to each other. If one observer sees an object at a certain position and time, these transformations allow another observer, moving at a steady speed, to determine the object's position and time from their perspective. They assume that space and time are absolute and do not change regardless of motion, which works well at everyday speeds but was later refined by Einstein's theory of relativity for very high speeds.
