A constant speed of light in all reference frames? Surely you can't be serious.

In order to understand the answer to the question you need to read my response where the train is moving at speed 'v' with respect to the aether. Why not just read the answer?

What speed do we measure on earth for light? Did you understand the answer? Then you understand if the lightning strike at M' is determined to be simultaneous at the Observers at A' and B' then the observers at A' and B' will determine the speed of light to be 'c'. They determine the speed of light to be 'c' because of the difference in their no longer synchronized clocks. They don't know their clocks are not synchronized because the are moving with respect to the aether and they won't know their clocks are not synchronized because when they bring their clocks back together the clocks will then be moved with respect to the aether and the clocks will 're-sychronize'.

They determine the speed of light to be 'c' because of the difference in their no longer synchronized clocks.

Is that the answer? If not, what will it be?

MPC, you have to GIVE the answer in order for it to be understood. How about you GIVE the answer, and then let the readers worry bout understanding it. > __________________________________ > OK, I read it.

What speed do we measure on earth for light? He won't answer directly, because he must know (deep down) that his 'theory' isn't consistent with reality or internally self-consistent, and that if he avoids directly dealing with any of its problems, then he can delude himself into thinking they do not exist.

In order to understand the answer to the question you need to read my response where the train is moving at speed 'v' with respect to the aether. Why not just read the answer? ________________________________ So claim that the measured speed of light in a laboratory on earth travelling at speed relative to the ether of v is still c? Is this your claim? |
