Einstein's train gadenken is incorrect. Light travels at 'c' relative to the aether. I realize you are like the fish in the lake who doesn't realize it exists in water.

There is the unprimed frame (the embankment) with A B and M, and the primed frame (the train) with A' B' and M'. The letters with and without the primes are the same point (re M and M' we can ignore the small right angle distance between the platform and train that would exist in a real train, but real trains don't go at 0.25 c...) M sees A and B. M' sees A' and B'. M' can't see A and B, it's in a different frame. He could figure out what he would have seen, by seeing A' and B'. Frame jumping is a common problem when trying to figure out relativity gedanken experiments.

Einstein on Fizeau's Experiment http://www.bun.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~suchii/EonFizeau.html "Einstein, in his popular book on relativity (Relativity: the special and the general theory, 1st ed., 1916; English translation, Three Rivers Press, 1961), refers to this experiment, and analyzes its results as follows: In accordance with the principle of relativity we shall certainly have to take for granted that the propagation of light always takes place with the same velocity w with respect to the liquid, whether the latter is in motion with reference to other bodies or not. " The water is at rest relative to the embankment. The lightning strikes are at A/A' and at B/B' in the water. Since the water is at rest relative to the embankment, the marks at A' and B' are meaningless when discussing where the light travels from to M'. BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS TRAVELING THROUGH THE WATER WHICH IS AT REST RELATIVE TO THE EMBANKMENT THE LIGHT TRAVELS FROM A AND B TO M'. > >'Ether and the Theory of Relativity by Albert Einstein' > >http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Extras/Einstein_ether.html > >"If we assume the ether to be at rest relatively to K, but in motion > >relatively to K', the physical equivalence of K and K' seems to me > >from the logical standpoint, not indeed downright incorrect, but > >nevertheless unacceptable." > > He's wrestling with the idea that the aether doesn't exist. No, he is struggling with the idea that he really can't have K and K' be physically equal, so he punts and say motion cannot be applied to the aether. Now, I know you are struggling with this, but the whole point I am trying to make right now is due to the light wave TRAVELING THROUGH THE WATER. If we assume the WATER to be at rest relatively to K, but in motion relatively to K', the physical equivalence of K and K' is downright incorrect. So, the water is at rest relative to the embankment. The light is traveling through the water which is at rest relative to the embankment and you are still insisting the light WHICH IS TRAVELING THROUGH THE WATER travels from A' and B' to M'. That is incorrect. Since the water is at rest relative to the embankment, the light waves WHICH ARE TRAVELING THROUGH THE WATER, travel from A and B to M'.

Note that Einstein here REFUTES what you claim, W = w + v (W = total speed of light in moving water, w = speed of light in water [less than c due to optical properties of water] and v = velocity of water) and Fizeau's Experiment agrees with an approximation of the Lorenz Transform W = (w + v) / (1 + wv/cc). If you plug in c for w, you'll get W=c, meaning the speed of light is constant no matter what speed v you compare it to. (it makes me laugh when a crank claims a website supports his claim when it actually refutes it!) |
