LACK OF QUESTIONS IN EINSTEIN ZOMBIE WORLD
Perhaps the cleverest hypnotist in Einstein criminal cult, John
Norton, explains the "Problem of Reciprocity": http://www.pitt.edu/~jdnorton/teachi...ity/index.html "Imagine a car that fits perfectly into a garage. The garage is a small free standing shed that is just as long as the car. There is a door at the front and a door at the rear of the garage. The car fits exactly--as long as it is at rest. Now image that we drive the car at 86.6% speed of light through the garage. The doors have been opened at the front and the rear to allow passage of the car. Can the garage attendant close the doors so that, at least for a few brief moments, the car is fully enclosed within the garage? According to the garage attendant, there is no problem achieving this. At 86.6% the speed of light, the car has shrunk to half of its length at rest. It fits in the garage handily. The garage attendant can close both doors and trap the car inside." John Norton's explanation implicitly involves the conclusion that, if the car is longer than the garage, then again "the garage attendant can close both doors and trap the car inside". Whether or not this falsifies Einstein's light postulate on which the conclusion is based is a serious problem. A much more serious problem however is the fact that, for a century, nobody has found it suitable to ask the simple question: "What if the car is longer than the garage?". Pentcho Valev |

A much more serious problem however is the fact that, for a century, nobody has found it suitable to ask the simple question: "What if the car is longer than the garage?". It would still fit. You pretend that "nobody" has asked this .. but its an old non-paradox of relativity. The usual form is the pole and barn. see usually the pole and barn (or ladder and barn) paradox. see http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu.../polebarn.html see http://www.math.ucr.edu/home/baez/ph...barn_pole.html see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ladder_paradox As presented above, even with the car longer than the garage, its not an apparent paradox .. its just what happens because of length contraction. The paradox (or apparent paradox) occurs when you consider that the garage/barn is also moving relative to the car/pole/ladder .. which means the garage shrinks as far as the car is concerned .. so how can the car fit inside it? Once you understand it, though, it makes perfect sense. It only appears problematic when you consider length contraction on its own .. when you consider relative simultaneity, it all makes sense. Maybe you should try learning some relativity, pentcho. |

John Baez and his brothers criminals have just found it suitable to make fun of zombies. They want to see if zombies would accept ANY idiotic explanation: http://www.math.ucr.edu/home/baez/ph...barn_pole.html "These are the props. You own a barn, 40m long, with automatic doors at either end, that can be opened and closed simultaneously by a switch. You also have a pole, 80m long, which of course won't fit in the barn....So, as the pole passes through the barn, there is an instant when it is completely within the barn. At that instant, you close both doors simultaneously, with your switch. Of course, you open them again pretty quickly, but at least momentarily you had the contracted pole shut up in your barn. The runner emerges from the far door unscathed." Pentcho Valev |

Jeckyl Jeckyl your brother Dono and especially Master Tom Roberts may find your reply irrelevant. According to the above scenario, "you open them [the doors] again pretty quickly, but at least momentarily you had the contracted pole shut up in your barn.

If you don't open the door, then the pole would crash into the door in front of it .. and with the amount of energy and momentum in it at such high speed, it would probably make a bit of a mess of both the pole and the door. |
