The "principle of relativity" in the broadest sense is contained in the statement: The totality of physical phenomena is such that it offers no support for the establishment of the concept of "absolute motion", or more briefly but less precisely: there is no absolute motion. a car against the ground, or the earth against the sun and the fixed stars) (however, motion is not perceptible not as "motion against space" or – as it has also been expressed – as "absolute motion"). The name "theory of relativity" is due to the fact that motion from the point of view of perceptability always occurs as relative motion of a thing against others (e.g. The theory of relativity is that physical theory, which is based on a consistent physical interpretation of these three terms. This is the case in particular with the concepts of motion, space, time. Physics also deals with mathematical concepts but these concepts acquire physical content only due to the fact that their relation to objects of experience is determined in a clear way.

Mathematics deals exclusively with the relation of concepts to each other without regard to the relation to objects of experience.
