Particles have been accelerated to near the speed of light, so it is known how much energy and force is needed. The results agree with... -
aLeaf replied to the thread Graduate Rotating Disk Method to Attain Light Speed?.Not interested in challenging the established theory, actually. To quote you, "just applying the theory" is not likely to provide any... -

As Peter has pointed out, in this thread all you can do is apply the theory. You can call this "doing a thought experiment" if you like... -

Experimentally, rotating disks break apart when their tangential velocity is on the order of the speed of sound in the material. Even... -
aLeaf replied to the thread Graduate Rotating Disk Method to Attain Light Speed?.That’s fine... Everyone has their limits, and an actual test would not be feasible. Thanks and best wishes to you...👍 -

We've already given you the results that this lab produces--they're the results that relativity predicts. -

Then you'll have to do a degree in experimental physics! -
aLeaf replied to the thread Graduate Rotating Disk Method to Attain Light Speed?.That sounds very finalistic, relatively speaking
