Seto, why are you making up this "SR effect"? The correct tool for the time dilation experienced by satellite clocks is general relativity.

So, if a second observer is closer to B than A in this gedanken, then the second observer will see B's light first? Agreed? Therefore, the two observers will disagree whether A or B happened first.

You are correct in that both frames agree that the bug dies when the rivet head strikes it. The question isn't that, but whether that takes place before or after the second event, which is the rivet head hitting the wall. If this will help you understand that there are two events, add a second bug, on the wall at the edge of the hole. The shaft misses it, the head of the rivet squishes it. Which bug dies first? > The paradox is: the rivet frame >claims that the bug dies before the head of the rivet hits the wall of >the hole and the hole frame claims that the bug dies after the rivet >head hits the wall of the hole.

You're simply betting on one of them, apparently as a hunch. That's not how science works.

You assert that SR equations calculate that from the satellite point of view, the SR effect on the ground clock is ~7us/day running *fast*. SR does no such thing, if you do the math you'll see the SR effect will have the satellite clock seeing the ground clock as running *slow*. Of course, as Sam Wormley will point out, you have to use GR because of the gravitational effect. I pointed out in the past the motion part of GR means the ground clock is slowed by ~7 uS/day as far as the satellite clock is concerned, and the ground clock is slowed by another ~45uS/day due to gravitational effects adding to ~52 uS/day running slow but Wormley doesn't like me doing that. (I'm ignoring second order effects and assuming the eccentricity of the orbit is 0)

You have this mistaken notion that "an instant of > time" has a common meaning for all spatially separate events, > regardless of reference frame. This is- Hide quoted text - Hey idiot both frame must agree that the bug die at the instant when the tip of the rivet hits it. But SR predicts that it dies at two different instants of time dues to length contraction and that's a contradiction....the way to resolve this contradiction is that length conraction is an apparent or geometric projection effect.....not a physical/material effect as you asserted. You attempt to have it both way by insisting that length contraction in SR is physical but not material is laughablely stupid. Ken Seto > > - Show quoted text -... > > read more » |
