Is it true that the law of inertia only holds in two frames of reference if those frames have a constant relative velocity?
Yes. The law of inertia and the standard Lorentz/Galilean transformations apply specifically between reference frames moving at a constant relative velocity.
Verdict: SUPPORTED · 2 sources for, 0 against · Last checked
The analysis
The retrieved physics literature consistently models transformations between inertial frames (where the law of inertia holds) as operating under conditions of constant relative velocity, supporting the claim.
Evidence for · 2
This study discusses Lorentz transformation equations and spacetime coordinate transformations between frames of reference moving at a constant velocity relative to each other.
