length contraction ? complete destruction to the atom size
WHICH ONE is RIGHT?How is the path of the light in a moving train? Analyzing the trace/path of light emitted from the base within a moving train is a good example of how both the speculative relativity theory flaws and both light kinematics and human intelligence work in the presence of low resolution.This analysis should be performed in at least five dimensions. Methodology and hard discipline should be applied. Otherwise we will get fantastic results like special relativity theory.
Hi Xerzanozgen,In science like everywhere else, pictures are worth thousand words. Have you ever had a look at David Cooper's simulation of the MM experiment? Run it again if you already did and look closely at the way the photon moves in the laser before getting out of it. To stay in the laser while it is moving, light has to travel sideways to the motion, because otherwise, it would hit the walls before being reflected at its ends. We need a background though to see that effect, and that background is the same as an ether because light is moving with regard to it. Nevertheless, we could not measure our speed or our direction with regard to that background with the help of an interferometer or any other instrument because all the particles of the instrument would suffer the same light behavior. No need for the postulate that c is the same whatever the speed of the observer: c doesn't need to be the same, and it is effectively not the same in both directions in that simulation. That postulate is completely misleading and it complicates the understanding considerably.
What is isotropic is the two way speed of light, not the one way, but that precision is not part of the postulate and it should, otherwise it leads to incongruities. The one way speed of light is impossible to observe anyway, so to consider it is isotropic is only an ad hoc assumption.
The primary postulate of STR is that the speed of light has the same value in any inertial frame. This postulate must be revised to include the concept that ”the velocity of light is measured by the same value ‘c’ on everywhere”, because the present measuring system can only measure the universal value of light’s velocity, as opposed to its local and relative speed.
”the velocity of light is measured by the same value ‘c’ on everywhere” , I don't understand the "on everywhere". Can you say it differently please?
I discovered that idea while I was trying to analyze how doppler effect would propagate between two bonded atoms while they would be accelerated.
Is this link of any interest ref the speed of light https://phys.org/news/2015-03-einstein-scientists-spacetime-foam.html#nRlvand forget to look at this link https://phys.org/news/2007-10-gamma-ray-physics.html#nRlv
How does the light move in water or fiberoptic cable? In my opinion a photon or quant/energy is absorbed by an atom and emitted again by this atom; therefore its speed decreases. But when the water or fiber cable has a motion, which value does the velocity of light get? SR is interested in light's motion in vacuum.
