In our journey to special theory of relativity we often encounter inertial frames of reference so it is worthwhile to understand inertia at a deeper level. Mach’s principle is an imprecise hypothesis that helps to explain inertia as a universal phenomenon. It explains how local physical laws are determined by the large scale structure of universe.
