Newton's laws of motion do not hold good for objects
General KnowledgePhysics
- Aat rest
- Bmoving slowly
- Cmoving with high velocity
- Dmoving with velocity comparable to velocity of light
Explanation
Newton's laws hold in inertial frames for ordinary speeds, including rest and slow motion, but break down when velocities become comparable to the speed of light, where special-relativistic effects (mass increase, time dilation, length contraction) take over. Hence D.
