true? 1. The Special Theory of Relativity considers the effect of gravity to the characteristics of an object moving near the speed of light 2. If a source of light is moving away from an observer, the observed wavelength is shorter than the wavelength emitted when the source is at rest.  3. The mass of an object moving at a speed near the speed of light is less than its rest mass. 4. Light travels at a constant speed regardless of the reference frame of the observer.

Frame of reference

In physics, a frame of reference is a coordinate system used to specify either the position or the orientation or velocity of a body. The origin of the coordinate acts as a reference point for measuring the position or relative motion of a body. The coordinate system can be a cartesian coordinate, cylindrical coordinate, or a polar coordinate.
