...differently in practice. This appears from the following considerations. Obviously it does not matter whether we think of the earth as turning round on its axis,...celestial bodies revolve round it. Geometrically these 1 [Ueber die Principien der Galilei-Newton' schen Theorie Leipzig, 1870.] are exactly the same case... | |

...universe; (d) all that matters in mechanics is the relative motion of all the masses. Thus Mach wrote: "... it does not matter if we think of the earth as turning round on its axis, or at rest while the fixed stars revolve around it. ... The law of inertia must be so conceived that exactly the same thing... | |

He wrote: Obviously it does not matter whether we think of the Earth as turning round on its axis, or at rest while the celestial bodies revolve around it. ...

...suggestion that, if we want to explain the equatorial bulge of the Earth as due to centrifugal forces, 'it does not matter if we think of the Earth as turning round on its axis, or at rest while the fixed stars revolve around it'. It is the relative motion that is responsible for the bulge. When Einstein... | |

...similar objection against mechanics (Neumann 1870), Mach wrote: Obviously it does not matter whether we think of the earth as turning round on its axis,...same case of a relative rotation of the earth and of the celestial bodies with respect to one another. . . . But if we think of the earth at rest and... | |
