Yes? > > n' is correct time for a moving clock. A clock showing 'Correct time' means (by defintion) the clock shows the actual time in S' .. which is what t' means (also by definition) .. the time in S'. > t' is correct time for the > Galilean transformation equations. So either 1) Galilean transforms are correct and so the correct time n' is the same as the correct time t' that Galilean transforms predict. ie n' = t' and every correct clock in S; shows t' or 2) Galilean transform are incorrect and the correct time n' is not the same as the time t' that Galilean transform predict. ie n' <> t' and no correct clock in S; shows t' Which is it? Lets see what your answer already is ... > There is no clock in S' that shows > t'. OK .. so your answer then is 2) Galilean transforms are incorrect. Thanks for clearing up your position.

And so the relationship between what clocks show is NOT the Galilean transforms. Correct?

You tell me .. you are the one claiming Galilean transforms apply to time (ie time is the same in all frames because t' = t for any pair of frames) but we know real clocks do not show this. How does time itself differ from what a clock says?

In the x'=x-vt and in the t'=t. x', x, v, t, t' are all MEASURED quantities. They come about by using MEASURING instruments. When you put the MEASURED values of x, v, t in the first equation, you find that it does not match the MEASURED value of x'. Likewise, the MEASURED value of t does not match the MEASURED value of t'. So that's where the Galilean transformation equations do not match experimental results. It's really quite simple, Robert. > > x'=x-vt > y'=y > z'=z > t'=t > > So we use the rotation of the earth to measure time. Well, no, actually we don't, because that is a horribly unreliable and imprecise way to specify time. That's why we don't use it. > For you > scientists, the earth rotates on its axis. The earth rotates the same > number of degrees in S' as it does in S. Yes, but in S it takes one amount of time, and in S' it takes another amount of time. According to time standards. And those standards are not tied to the rotation of the Earth.

You asked me a question, and I answered it, Robert. I really don't care if it didn't prove anything to you. It couldn't be proven to you that the sky is blue if it was a scientist that told you it was so. You'd go on your whole life believing it was not blue. So recapping: - It's pretty plain that not everything has a center at all. - So it's simply not true that "everything has a center of gravity" and the universe is the sole exception. - The universe is one of many things that does not have a center, and hence do not have a center of gravity. - Your statement that the fastest clock would be at the center of gravity of the universe is gibberish. I think that's pretty plain now. Don't you? PD |
