General Relativity is the relativistic theory of strong gravitational space whereas the special theory of relativity only accounts for the weak field of the region which is called free space, where gravitational effects can be neglected (Veltman, 1975; Richard, 1983; Resnick, 1968; Hughton, 1990). In those systems the law of inertia holds good and the physical laws retain the same form (Alam and Alam, 2020). In some freely - declining position and make a large structure out of the solid bar, at a certain interval off, the freely-declining body will have resembled that they are accelerating with regard to this frame of reference and according to Einsteins equivalence principle, the physical laws of nature convert to those of Newtonian Relativity in an infinitesimal region of space-time which is known to non-relativistic limit (Narlikar, 1978; Boss, 1980; Relativity, 1964; Stephani, 2004).

These considerations lead to the vital concept of gravity force which is not actually a force but a manifestation of space-time curvature. The crucial difference between strong and weak gravitational fields is that in a field space the result of parallel transporting a vector from one point to another will depend on the path taken between the points (Rinder, 2001; Ohanian and Ruffini, 1994). 

In the transformation of vectors in a weak field, initial and final vectors remain the same at a time. But in a strong field initial and final vectors are different. The change of the vector A_(μ )is dA_μ which can be divided into two components. One component 〖∂A〗_(μ )due to the change of direction of the axis of coordinates and another is A_μdue to the change of the intrinsic value of the vector (Caroll, 1997; Boss, 1980).  

In weak gravitational field there is no changed of vector with the change of axis. Hence, 〖∂A〗_(μ )=0. Which    implies that the direction of vector is constant in weak field and the metric is the function of gravitational potential (Will, 2018).

Coordinate System

To explain the motion of a particle in Newtonian mechanics, a few numbers of coordinate systems are used. To take the distance between two adjacent points is the best medium to identify the coordinate system and this interval between two adjacent points is called a metric or line element. In three dimensional space, the interval of the points-

Here the form (4) is called fundamental metric form. 

Coordinate Transformations

Suppose in two dimensional coordinates system the Cartesian and polar coordinate of a point are (x,y) and (r,θ), then written the coordinate transformations are below (Ansari, 2020).

From the above relations we see that a coordinate of one reference frame is the function of all coordinates of another frame of reference. Similarly, we can show the same transformation in 3-D system. In the basis of this concept into the N-dimensional system, if the coordinates of a point in two difference reference frame are -

Relations (14) and (15) are defined to the transformation of coordinates from one frame of reference to another. 

Manifolds: 

Manifold refers to the various types of surfaces such as the plane is two dimensional manifolds. A manifold is one of the most fundamental concepts in mathematics and physics. Consider the set U(P) which is the neighborhood of P and P is any point on the Manifold M which can be explained by the N number of elements (x1, x2, x3, ......... xN), Now, in Euclidean space the distance between two points PA and PB be (Foster and Nightingale, 1994; Caroll, 1997).

Another point q and its neighborhood, open set U(q) can be explained by the N-number of real quantities (y1, y2, .... yN). Now the points of the common region of these two neighborhoods can be expressed through any of them coordinate systems. In this case, the coordinate transformation is -

The transformation from one coordinates system to another coordinates system is called one-one mapping or direct transformation. So, we can define the mani-fold as a connected Housdorf space which is locally Euclidean. 

Space-time Metric: 

The special relativistic line element (or metric), when Cartesian coordinates (ct, x, y, z) are used, is given by   

Where,  is the flat-space Minkowskian metric tensor. If the inertial coordinate frames will be changed into another then in Lorentz transformation, the space-time metric (18) does not change (Stephani, 2004; Ellis and Williams, 1988).

Fig 2: Inertial frame into a non-inertial frame and the revolution.

Consider the changes from an inertial frame into a non-inertial frame and the revolution is taken concerning the z-axis (Synge and Schild, 1949). Now, the conversion equations are -

And all other components of g vanish and this is different from (18). In the general case, when none-inertial coordinate frames are used, the line element will have following expression (Anderson, 1975).

Now, we can use non-Cartesian coordinates and in that case, the coordinates x1, x2 and x3 describe curvilinear coordinates (Weinberg, 1972). The metric tensor g describes the none-inertial field of forces are equivalent to gravitational fields. So, the space-time metric in general relativity has the more general form given by (24), (Max, 1964). Here, g_μν (x) represents the gravi-tational potential (field). Using tensor transformation we can show that,

Parallel Transformation of Vector and Covariant Derivative

The concept of moving a vector along a path keeping constant all the while is known as parallel transport. To subtract of two vectors on a curve space they must be taken at the same position. Now, to bring one vector at the position of another vector there must be needed to the parallel transformation of that vector. Suppose a vector A_μ  is taken from the position x^μ to the nearest position x^μ+dx^μ and at this position the vector is A_μ+dA_μ. 

In Cartesian coordinates system the change of vector dA_μ is zero, but in general curvilinear coordinate it is not zero (Stephani, 2004; Caroll, 1997). 

Newtonian Approximation 

Consider the motion of a test particle in case of a weak static field. The motion of a test particle is governed by geodesic equations as given below,

Since the field is static, i.e. it does not Change with time. Hence velocity components can be taken as (Weinberg, 1972; Caroll, 1997).

This equation implies that Einstein laws of gravitation coincide to the Newtons laws of gravitation.  

In this paper, we try to represent an overview of the metric of space-time curvature in a weak gravitational field and it is a consequence in Newtonian approxi-mation. Confidently we can say, this is valuable and usable and future we may try to more work on it.

First of all, I must thank the Almighty upon who rests the supreme authority. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to responsible parents, honorable teachers, and classmates for the guidance, inspiration, and constructive suggestion that helped me in the preparation and accomplishment.
