Two cars driving along the road, the first moving at 30m/s and the second moving at 40m/s, closing speed 10m/s. The first has a head start of 200m. The second car catches the first when the first car has moved 600m and the second has travelled 800m. To find the time, you divide the separation at the start by the closing speed, 200 / 10 = 20s. "Closing speed" is the rate at which the separation is decreasing. What you try to do below is divide the 600m by 10m/s which gives you the wrong answer. > The beam travels in a straight line from the source.

No. To get the time taken, you use the separation between the source and mirror at the instant the light is emitted. That is simply the distance measured when the table is not rotating. That distance is unchanged by the rotation and as you said the closing speed is always c so the time is also unchanged by rotation.

Considering that we are discussing Algol which according to conventional theory is an eclipsing binary, that is a pretty stupid statement, isn't it? :-) You know, Henri, conventional theory have a very simple explanation for why the light curves are different in IR and visible light.

No. 'c' is the closing speed of the beam and the next mirror, the direction of which is 45 degrees. The beam is not the horizontal one. It is angled slightly downwards to meet the mirror in its new position. The distance is greater than in the non-rotating case. > >You have again proved that Ritz predicts a null result.

It does not...and stop repeating something you would like to be true but isn't. I realize you are trying desperately to convince yourself but you aren't impressing me. I now think it might predict a fringe shift of 1/root2 times the classical one. That would be near enough to the same. > ><snip previous mirror frame points> > >> In the table frame, the closing speed between the beam and the moving >> mirrors >> is always c. >> that is all that matters. > >Right, and that gives a null prediction.

So what causes light pulses from two differently moving sources to traverse space together? 1) Is it due to an absolute a property of space or an Einstein postulate? 2) Is it not what really happens?
