A launch pad floating in outer space: Relativistic approach: the launch pad is at rest in its frame, a object launched from the launch pad acquires a relative speed versus the launch pad original frame while the launch pad its self is backfired in the opposite direction at a opposite relative speed versus the original frame. Both the launch pad and the object acquire the same and opposite kinetic energy versus the original frame of the launch pad. Etherist approach: The launch pad has an absolute speed at the start (versus the ether), when a object is launched, the object acquires a final absolute speed that includes the launch pad original absolute speed; while the launch pad is backfired modifying its original absolute speed. Both the launch pad and the object acquire a final kinetic energy that include the original kinetic energy of the launch pad. It is obvious that the etherist approach is more complete because it includes in the scenario all the masses of the universe The old refrain of the impossibility of determining the absolute speeds is groundless because the only limit there is, is in the grade of approximation we can achieve; not on the impossibility as a principle. Said the above there is a further consideration about all the obsolete misconceptions that the denying the absolute approach has prevented from investigating. It is obvious that the pad and the object are no longer in the same state of motion as before the launch. In that sense you can say that they are in different states of absolute motion. At the same time they acquired a relative motion between them. In order to relate relative motion with the absolute motions the following definition is used: Relative motion between two objects A and B is the vector difference of the vector component of A's absolute motion and the vector component of B's absolute motion along the line joining A and B. In the simplest case of A moving at absolute speed of .5 C approaching B and B moving at absolute speed of .4 C approaching A, both moving along the same straight line their relative speed is absolutely .9 C and relatively .75 C In a absolute sense a relative speed of A and B could be higher than C up to 2 * C. No...not if each using his own clock and rod to do the relative speed measurements. The speed of light as measured by all observers is a constant math ratio c as follows: Light path length of rod (299,792,458m)/the absolute itme content for a clock second co-moving with the rod. Ken Seto Please depict a example with numbers: Now, if a road moving at .5 C contract to .8660254 while a commoving clock time rate is also .8660254 the result is, as you say, 1=C, but this is acceptable for a two ways measurement, for one way you need to synch the clocks so your OWSL is a groundless assumption. Two touching and synchronized clocks moving at a slow speed in the opposite directions and come to rest again......these two clocks will remain synchronized (according to all theories). -- TWO clocks side by side on a GR WORLD-line in SPACE-time ..even TWO adjacent GR-POiNT-mass clocks (if they could have mass in GR) CANNOT ..by GR definition, occupy syncronous POiNTs in TiME, duh. Row, row, row the boat, dimwit.!! brian a m stuckless -- Using such two clocks measure the flight time call this tF. The OWLS for this measurement = tF in light seconds / tF in clock second =1 Ken Seto. |
