    Graduate Why does special relativity reject Galilean velocity addition for light?

    Oh I read the rules. I am not here to create an argument. I am here to find answers to why two famous physicist have a clash in views.

    Graduate Why does special relativity reject Galilean velocity addition for light?

    Oh I am willing to learn. The fact that Einstein and Newton contradicts each other... who am I suppose to believe? Just like when scientist started claiming that Pluto is no longer a planet. Even scientist can't come to a conclusion what a planet is. Scientific theories change from day to...

    Gravitational Influence also propagates at the speed of light -> According to Einstein. If Einstein created new numbers and this numbers suggest 1 + 1 = 3, as we know it today it is false, but of course whoever said 2 is actually two. These are just what representations of them. Light...

    Photons do not have rest mass... yes in theory. I would like to see this experimentally tested... impossible btw.

    If you suggest that is wrong, then you definitely have to look at special relativity one more time.

    LOL, why does it matter if its on Earth or space. Newton's law of gravitation. Not to mention, Einstein says light has mass, his equation does not take into account gravity and light's mass. And as for particle accelerators, they are not used to test Einstein's Theory of Relativity. LOL.

    E=mc^2 That's Einstein's famous equation isn't it? Anything that has energy has mass, light has energy therefore it has mass.

    Graduate Why does special relativity reject Galilean velocity addition for light?

    Extremely tested at low velocities. Not even close to the speed of light. And the fact that it is tested on Earth and not on space. Edit: On another topic, good luck collecting anti-matter when you have a particle accelerator surrounded by full of matter. And please, don't tell me they...

    Graduate Why does special relativity reject Galilean velocity addition for light?

    Of course it will work because these are formulas derived by Einstein himself. If I created a formula that says 1+1=3 then it will work. I guess the only way to show that Einstein's theory of relativity is to test it on objects with a velocity that is fractional to c. At least .5c, otherwise...

    Graduate Why does special relativity reject Galilean velocity addition for light?

    Ok. Then my question is why does Galilean transformation work at low speeds such as comparison car speeds but when it comes to higher velocities it is no longer valid. I know that this can be used just as an estimate but it seems accurate. Car A headed east at 60mph and Car B passes Car A...

    Graduate Why does special relativity reject Galilean velocity addition for light?

    Hey guys. I am a college physics student and ever since this theory was introduced to me in high school, I refuse to believe it. What caught my attention first is that Einstein's Principle of Relativity. Einstein suggest that the laws of physics are the same for all observers in uniform...
