Einstein's postulate in the special theory of relativity states that the laws of physics are the same in reference frames that move at constant velocity with respect to an inertial frame. This means that the physical laws governing motion, energy, and other phenomena are the same for all observers in inertial frames, regardless of their relative velocity. Acceleration, oscillation, and stationary states do not have the same constancy of physical laws as inertial frames, and therefore are not included in Einstein's postulate in the special theory of relativity.
