They are wrong in _that one example_. For most other day to day scenarios, Newton's laws are plenty accurate.
I disagree with the poster about that saying. I think it's a fantastic saying.
- bardworx 7y agoI'm not sure I follow your argument, perhaps you can help me understand. If you're saying that Newtonian Gravity breakdown in a specific case but are fairly accurate in other cases does that mean they're still universally correct?
- dwaltrip 7y agoI'm saying that for most everyday situations, Newton's equations provide sufficient accuracy for people to achieve their goals. However, in the case of GPS, the system wouldn't work reliably if it was only using Newton's equations. Einstein's theory of gravity is much more robust and is highly accurate across a far wider domain. It can be used to implement a reliable GPS system.
