Example

For instance, playing Ping-Pong on the train, one would find that the ball obeyed Newton’s laws just like a ball on a table by the track. So there is no way to tell whether it is the train or the earth that is moving.

The laws of science should be the same for all freely moving observers, no matter what their speed. This was true for Netwon’s laws of motion, but now the idea was extended to include Maxwell’s theory. All observers should measure the same speed of light, no matter how fast they are moving.

Gravity is not a force like other forces, but is a consequence of the fact that space-time is curved by the distribution of mass and energy in it. An object in a gravitational field experiences the same effects as if it were accelerating at a rate proportional to the strength of that gravitational field.
