If I am an inertial observer, another person moving relative to me at constant velocity will also be an inertial observer.
如果我是惯性观察者,那另一个相对于我做匀速运动的人,也是一个惯性观察者
One is inertial mass, which is how much you hate your velocity to change, how hard you resist acceleration.
一个是惯性质量,它反映了物体速度改变的难易程度,即保持加速度的难易程度
There are a lot of ways in which a red light means neither "stop" nor "go," but we are sort of confining ourselves so far to the ways in which a red light has something to do with locomotion or the lack thereof.
很多时候红灯既不表示停,也不表示走“,但是我们却惯性的认为,红灯就是提示开始或者停止移动。
But another possibility is once you do something it's kind of hard to stop.
但也有可能是因为,婴儿很难使自己的惯性动作停下来
The Earth seems to be a pretty good inertial system, because on the ground, you leave something, it stays there.
地球看上去是个不错的惯性系,因为什么东西放在地上,都会保持静止
If you're an inertial observer, then in your system of reference, objects left at rest will remain at rest.
如果你是惯性观察者,那么在你的参考系内,静止的物体会保持静止
if the Law of Inertia is valid for me, it's valid for other people in the same room at rest with respect to me.
如果惯性定律对我适用,那就对这屋子里的其他和我保持相对静止的人,也同样适用
But if you go to outer space nowadays, you can find truly inertial frames of reference.
但如今,要是你到了外太空,你可以找到真正的惯性参考系
But if you go on a plane which is accelerating, you're no longer inertial.
但如果你上了一架加速飞行的飞机,你就不再处于惯性状态了
The point of Newton is, two things in the Law of Inertia, which one may think is trivial.
牛顿的观点是,惯性定律分两部分,可能有人觉得这种分法无关紧要
That is an example of a person for whom the Law of Inertia does not work.
这就是一个惯性定律不成立的例子
So the Earth is an inertial frame of reference, if you go in a train relative to the Earth at constant velocity, you're also inertial.
所以,地球是一个惯性参考系,如果你坐在相对于地球匀速运动的火车里,你也处于惯性状态
The point is that there are inertial frames of reference.
重点就是,惯性参考系是存在的
If you find one inertial observer, namely one person for whom this Law of Inertia works, I can manufacture for you an infinite number of other people for whom this is true.
如果你能找到一个惯性观察者,也就是适用惯性定律的人,我就可以给你找到,很多其他的也适用惯性定律的人
You must know the Earth is not precisely inertial.
你们都知道,地球不是严格意义上的惯性参考系
