Description
Instructions
In a two-page paper, identify the physics principles contained within the following scenario. Explain how these principals connect to Einstein's theory of relativity or in modern applications in physics. If you use a GPS option on your car or a mobile device, you are using Einstein's theory of relativity. Finally, provide another example from your own experience, then compare and contrast your scenario to the provided example below.
Scenario
Mandy took a trip to Rome, Italy. She gazed out over the open ocean 20,000 feet below as her airplane began its descent to her final destination of Rome. It had been a long flight from New York to Rome, but she as she stretched, and her bones creaked as though she was old, she knew that in fact, she was a tiny bit younger than her compatriots back home, thanks to traveling at hundreds of miles per hour. In fact, time for her was running slowly compared to her friends in New York for two reasons: the speed at which she had traveled and the height of the airplane above the Earth. Neither, though, were noticeable.

RELATIVITY CASE STUDY
Einstein's theory of relativity
The relativity theory, as brought forth by Albert Einstein, describes the relationship
between gravity, objects, or matter and energy relationships in nature (Fleury, 2019). Einstein
explained two principles; the principle of general relativity as well as special relativity. The
speed of light is a significant aspect of both principles of relativity. The general relativity theory
defines the gravitational relationship between two masses as a result of warping space-time. The
space-time principle holds that matter, gravity, momentum, and energy interact to produce varied
magnitudes of relative energy depend...
