No rotation as on earth there (or one per month?) Or we'll go to a NON rotating base to erect the axle, with a greater gravity at each end. NOW will you predict what the axle/clocks will do/read? Jim G c'=c+v (see reply to Jeff)

A clock driven at each end mechanically will read the same for eternity (sans diff slippage). Gr is trying to tell me, that if I lay the old girl on the side, time is passing differently at each end due to gravity disparity. So how are the rotations per time at each end the same, if a clock at a higher altitude reads differently, due to gravity difference? For Paul to maintain the claim of time passing differently due to gravity, he must disconnect! The free (call it a GPS based clock) and the one connected to the (very high) axle, CANNOT read differently, WITHOUT a torque on the axle. THIS is the contradiction. : The "Theory" says they will, and the axle proves they won't. Jim G c'=c+v

The shaft is center driven and in uniform motion. Are Jeddi knights providing a "force" that would test the axel's rigidity? I'll bet Jim doesn't understand snake oil either. Sue... |
