Activity 1.1

The general relativity is a major building block of modern physics. It explains eravity based on the way space can'curve. To put it more accurately, it associates the force of gravity with the changing geometry of space-time.

With your learnings of postulates of general relativity, list down five ways on how you observe the general relativity in real life. Explain each way.

1. Global positioning system or GPS. Because an observer on the ground sees satellites in motion relative to them, special relativity predicts that we should see their clocks ticking slowly. Factor in that they are sending signals to Earth's surface which are greater influence in the earth's gravity

2. All that glitters is not gold. Most metals are shiny because most lights are reflected with some absorbed and reemitted as some electrons jump and fall within orbital.

3. Going back to gold. The theory of relativity doesn' just affect gold's enticing color, it also affects on good's ability, well inahility to react with other materials

4. Electromagnets. Electronics work via relativity. When DC current flows through a single wire, the conducting material is relatively neutral with no net positive or negative charge.

5. Mercury. The interatomic bombs are weak enough for mercury to have a low melting point than other metals and thus exist in liquid state on earth.
