Introduction to the principle of equivalence: freely falling frames to generalize the inertial frames of special relativity. Two important variants of the equivalence principle (EP): The weak EP (one cannot distinguish free fall under gravity from uniform acceleration over ’sufficiently small’ regions); the Einstein EP (the laws of physics in freely falling frames are identical to those of special relativity over ’sufficiently small’ regions).
