Galilean's principle implies independence of time and dependence on relative distance

Suppose a system of particles $q_1,\ldots,q_N$ of masses $m_1,\ldots,m_N$ that follow the equations of motion $$m_j\ddot{q}_j=f_j(q_k,\dot{q}_k)$$ in an inertial frame and satisfy the Galilean princi …

Galilean's principle implies independence of time and dependence on relative distance

Take the Galilean's transformation $(q_{j},t)\mapsto(q_{j},t+t_{0})$ then, by the principle of relativity $$f_{j}(q_{k},\dot{q}_{k},t+t_{0})=f_{j}(q_{k},\dot{q}_{k},t).$$ Since $t_{0}\in\mathbb{R}$ is …
