No. *Illustrations* of a light ray are used to explain a constant c for
different frames. You know the difference, but you act the fool.

So kenseto *knows* how the light moves? The stationary frame infers the
light in the moving frame follows a slant path. The moving frame infers a
straight path. The path is therefore observer dependent, and has little to
do with the light, but more to do with how the frame's observers infer the
light moves.
You argue with an empty heart.

That's the problem. This assertion is bogus. The stationary observer also
infers the light in the moving frame follows a straight path.

Right.

No kenseto. It implies that one "assumes" a path, given the least distance
possible. And the analysis to which you refer is *classical*, since it
talks about paths, rays, and the like.

It is straight, kenseto. The light ray does not curve at all. The light
ray is not accelerated along its path. "Slant" does not mean what you
think it means in English. It does not mean (entirely) "bent, as if by
wind".

They both are straight. They are not just both perpendicular to the path
of the moving observer.

I think that a stationary observer can see
that the light travels along a diagonal path
in his frame and along a straight path in the
moving frame. That is, the stationary observer
can see that the light travels within the moving
frame and is also carried along with it, producing
a resultant diagonal path in his stationary frame
Alen
In that case it would be the path perpendicular to the mirror and you
call this path as "straight path".

Straight path means perpendicular to the mirror or perpendicular

You are stupid. A slant path does not mean a bent path. The outside
observer does not see a slant path as asserted by you.
My interpretation is that a light ray is composed of a train of photons
and all photons are moving perpendicular to the mirrorsas seen by
any observer. That means that no photon is following a slant path as
asserted by SR. With this interpretation, the first batch of photons will
miss the target and the amount missing the target is dependent on the
state of absolute motion of the light clock. SR interprets this as time
dilation.

Hey stupid...both the stationary and the moving observers see the
path of each photon as being perpendicular to the path of moving
of the light clock. No body sees a slant path for any photon as
asserted by you.

NO...a better interpretation is that a light ray is composed of a
train of photons and all photons are moving perpendicularly
wrt to the mirrors. This means that the stationary
observer will see the light rays (trains of photons) moving in the
perpendicular direction. This means that the first batch of photons
will miss the target mirror and the amount missed is dependent
on the state of absolute motion of the light clock. This also means
that the first photon that hits the target was not generated until
a later time and SR interprets this as time dilation.

Both paths are straight. The path in the moving frame has the simplicity
of assuming motion parallel to a line drawn between source and receiver, or
source-mirror-receiver. In the stationary frame, the Assumed path is
straight from the source *then* to the receiver *now*. It is still a
straight path.

No, this is not correct in English. Straight does not mean it has to be
perpendicular to the mirror. It means the path does not curve.

Very good. So you do understand.

The measured time-of-flight of light is consistent with the light having
followed a slant path in the stationary frame. So you are arguing with
nothing, for no reason.

Your interpretation is invalid. Your interpretation is based on a faulty
assumption. You cannot say what the "orientation" of a single photon is.
Your interpretation is also in disagreement with measurement.

If that is so, I don't understand how all
subsequent photons don't miss the mirror
as well, so that none of them ever hit it?
Alen
The photons are moving at c and the target is moving at <<<<than c.
Therefore the subsequent photons are able to hit the target
before it is moving away.
Notice that if the target is moving at c no photons will hit the
target. SR interprets that time is standing still at the speed of light.

So relativity don't have to agree with QM? Also if there is a way to make

The time of flight of light is based on the vertical path of the first
photon.
The slant path has the same length as the vertical path of the first photon
and that's why it is consistent with observation. The problem with the
slant path concept is that the leading edge of the light ray (the first
photon)
is required to know which of the infinite slant paths to follow. If you
accept that you are more of an idiot than I thought.

You again cannot separate the two theories, can you? You cannot accept
that relativity doesn't talk about photons, but light signals. You
foolishly insist on standing on your ignorance, and calling it wisdom.
Since you have no intention of learning, I am done with you.
<plonk>
David A. Smith
Are you trying to say that the initial
acceleration of the clock causes the initial
photons to miss the target, but not the
subsequent photons, after the acceleration
has stopped?
I am trying to understand what distinction
you are making between the initial photons
and the subsequent photons!
Alen
The initial acceleration of the light clock causes
the target (the top mirror) to increase its state of
absolute motion and thus causes the first batch
of photons to miss the target. The number of photons
missing the target is dependent on the increase
in the state of absolute motion.of the target.
After the acceleration has stopped, the target
will remain in a higher state of absolute motion
than before the acceleration and thus
only the subsequent photons will reach the target.

Hope the above explanation is clear. I have an article

Hey idiot ...this would mean that the speed of light is source dependent

The tenis ball has a velocity v horizontally before it is bounced upward

No he doesn't.
Each infinitesimal element of the vertical light ray follows its own unique
diagonal path in the rest frame.
Only one such element moves along each path. A light beam consists of an
'infinite number of such infinitesimal elements', all of which follow each
other along the SAME path. One elements can hardly constitute a light beam.
So do yourself a favour.
see my demo: www.users.bigpond.com/hewn/movingframe.exe
It shows why Ken is right for once and why relativity is dead and buried.
Henri Wilson.
I think that your demo is correct if you don't
allow time dilation, although I don't see why the
green and purple wavelets don't keep pace
horizontally. If you use time dilation, you
can make the green photons move at velocity c
diagonally. However, since you don't believe in SR,
I suppose you won't accept time dilation as an
answer, so I can't argue the matter further.
However, I partially agree with your viewpoint in general.
I have posted an argument to prove that SR effects,
like foreshortening, cannot be spacelike in nature,
but lightlike only, and that is why I can accept the
validity of your moving rod method of synchronising
clocks.
http://home.westserv.net.au/~alen1/Physics/aSpacelikeExperiments.htm
Alen
The funny thing is that idiots like you who don't understand
the first thing about relativity, try to teach it to the other idiots
who don't even understand the first thing about anything :-)
Dirk Vdm
Time dilation is derived from the assumption that the diagonal velocities of
the elements is c.
Of COURSE THE DIAGONAL VELOCITY WILL BE C IF YOU APPLY THE FICTITIOUS TIME
DILATION THAT WAS DERIVED ON THE BASIS THAT THE VELOCITY IS C.
Geez, why can no SRian understand circular logic?

OF course SR must be wrong. The application of a force to a rod of clock will
both increase and decrease its velocity according to which observer one uses.
Length and time contractions can only occur if an absolute frame exists. There
is no evidence that it does.

You appear to be asking me, yet you've quoted kenseto. What "ball" would
that be? kenseto and I were discussing light.
If you meant "what would be the light's diagonal velocity", then the answer
would be "c" if it were in a vacuum.
David A. Smith
But you use the tennis ball to explain why the light follows a slant
(diagonal) path.
BTW your tennis ball explanation implies that the speed of light is
source dependent.

Its all right, Henri, I am not trying to offer
a circular argument. If the postulate is that
the velocity must be c, then time dilation follows.
If the postulate were that time dilation exists,
then the velocity c would follow.
The velocity c is the original postulate, and
so time dilation follows. However, if you
regard either possible postulate as fiction,
then neither postulate (and its consequence) is true,
which is your position.
The question, therefore, is: is the
velocity_c_and_time_dilation picture a human
fabrication only, or a fabrication established in
Nature?
We clearly hold opposite opinions about this!

Do you have proof?
The vertical beam does not lean over you know. It stays vertical.
Why would you want to hold a firm opinion about a postulate that has never been
proven and has no logic behind it?

Henri Wilson.
Do you comprehend why the original determination of finite light
distance that you call 'c' relied on observed anomalous motion and a
time delay.The motion of Io should have been steady but instead it
accelerated and slowed down after observation was corrected by
factoring out the natural variations in the Earth's motions via the
Equation of Time.
http://dibinst.mit.edu/BURNDY/OnlinePubs/Roemer/chapter3(part2).html
The Equation of Light like the Equation of Time is a geometric
adjustment made to astronomical observations,if finite light distance
effects what you observe at small scales within the solar system such
as the motion of Io consider what the effects are on the cosmological
scale of distant galaxies,their observed positions and motions and
their actual position and motions to each other and to our point of
view.

Neither,if you find Roemer's method to be valid it is possible to
model cosmological motion and structure by using finite light distance
as a geometric tool.Follow Albert into his 'time' dimension and that
geometric tool is lost to this ridiculous 'addition of velocities'
nonsense.

You don't have that luxury of holding an opinion based on the
relativistic "free creations of the mind".Donald duck and Mickey mouse
are free creations of the mind and you can hold opinions on them
however Albert elevated this cartoon feature using astronomy via
Newton and by getting aetherists to act as stool pidgeons.

And simile's are to be the way Nature is constrained to behave? Because
our simple models describe the behaviour if not the quantity, you would
tell Her how to run things?

I have a TWLS measurement. I have Maxwell's laws that require it.
Do you have anything except your pet ballistic theory, which only you pet?
> The vertical beam does not lean over you know. It stays vertical.
In the moving frame, true. In the staionary frame, it never left at
anything except a slant. Remember in a statistical theory like relativity,
light always travels on the radius of a spherical wavefront from the
emitter.
David A. Smith
I just explained to hobba, Maxwell's equations give light a 'velocity'.
Nothing has a 'velocity'. It can only have a velocity wrt another object.
WRT what, does Maxwell's 'c' apply?

No Smithy, you have it all wrong.
Moving a light beam sideways is the same as moving a light pole. It always
appears vertical.
What is more, the ants crawling up the pole take the same time to get to the
top no matter how diagonal their paths may appear in different frames.

The emitter, the mirror (if any), and the receiver. Regardless of what
frame they may be located in.
If you don't like it, take it up with Maxwell.

You are absolutely right. In the moving frame the beam is "vertical". No
other frame observes it like this, however. So in every other instance you
are wrong. Let's see 1 part in infinity is... mostly wrong, I think.

That isn't even right in Newtonian mechanics. You need to lay off the red
wine for a couple of hours. Or change brands.

How is your foot? :-)
Paul
It is very simple.
Henry's "demo" is based on the assumption that the speed
of light is dependent on the speed of the source and that
Galilean relativity applies.
Since the lasers are moving with different velocity,
the speeds of the green and purple light are different.
Henry's demo correctly demonstrates how light would
behave if the speed of light were source dependent.
What's really amazing is that Henry Wilson thinks
that light MUST behave like that because
"what's clearly shown on a computer screen cannot
be wrong". :-)
Paul
So if we hadn't assumed that the "diagonal speed of light" is c
the MMX would have produced fringe shifts because then
the diagonal speed of light wouldn't have been c.
Right? :-)
Any experimental verification of an assumption is obviously circular.
Right? :-)
Paul

.....absolutely wrong.
The MMX produced a null result because light speed is source dependent -- end
of story.

How can an experiment based on the presumed properties of something that the

One only needs a mind capable of logical thought to understand that a

MMX is not performed diagonally, nTaul who thinks speed is the same as

IF the assumption is that the velocity of light is source dependent and in
agreement with vector addition of velocities and the PoR, then no. If the
assumption is time dilation and length contraction then GR effects come into
play and thence we conclude that a MMX at the equator must show more fringe
shift, by a very small amount, than a precisely MMX situated at one of the
poles under otherwise identical conditions.
Androcles
Have you heard his funniest?
quote:
What you have failed to understand is that it is the _speed_
that shall be entered into the equation, and the speed is 0.86c.
The direction of the velocity is taken care of in the equation
tau = (t+xv)/sqrt(...), this equation has a plus sign _because_
the tau-xi frame is moving in the negative x-direction.
unquote.
How confused can he be?
I gave him
| x v x/v tau=(t-xv)/sqrt(...)
| tau=(t+xv)/sqrt(...)
| 4.00 0.86 4.65 2.37 years out
|
| -4.00 -0.86 4.65 15.86
| -4.00 0.86 -4.65 -15.86
| 4.00 -0.86 -4.65 -15.86
| 4.00 0.86 4.65 15.86
and WITHOUT the 4th column, he comes up with
quote:
So the correct combination of numbers are:
x = -4, v = 0.86
which you claimed should give t = -4.65
It is the latter that is the point.
The correct t with those numbers is t = 4.65.
unquote.
The guy doesn't know velocity from speed.
I did this with a spreadsheet, and got the answer he wanted in the first
line.
When the twin went back home again, using HIS transform, the computer gave
an answer he didn't like in the fifth column, so he denies it.
It all stems from Einstein's
If we place x'=x-vt, it is clear that a point at rest in the system k must
have a system of values x', y, z, independent of time.
|< -vt <|
0----------x'--------x
1----------x'-------x
2----------x'------x
3----------x'-----x
4----------x'----x
5----------x'---x
6----------x'--x
7----------x'-x
8----------x'x
x' = x - vt, the gap is narrowing.
The idiot cannot understand that
***IF*** we place x'=x+vt, it is BLATANTLY BLOODY OBVIOUS that a point at
rest in the system k must have a system of values x', y, z, so that we can
go FORWARD.
0---------xx'
1---------x----x'
2---------x--------x'
3---------x-------------x'

x' = x+vt, the gap is widening.
