Frames of Reference Physical systems are always observed from some point of view.
Consider a kind of clock: We observe two events: i) the emission of a flash at O’ and ii) the reception of the flash at O’. In this case, ∆x′=∆y′=∆z′=0. The time interval between the two events is c d t ′ ∆′= 2. Now let’s view the same two events from the point of view of another frame, S.
