we see the photon as it left 14 billion light years ago. if you were a photon you would not experience time. but we observe it as moving through space at a finite speed
well thank you for making fun of me :)
okay I think I get it, the speed of light appears instantaneous for all observers because it doesn't travel through time even though it has a finite speed through space?
My point is that the consistency of c is just a product of waves and not time dilation or length contraction.
Doesn't that have to do with location? and light being much faster?
You didn't finish reading what I said about why they are similar. They are similar because wavelength changes from the object emitting them based on the direction of motion. Of course the speed of light isn't going to oscillate the same. One oscillates threw electric and magnetic fields while...
Red shifting if it is moving away from you blue shifting it is moving toward you, +frequency=+energy, and I understand m0/sqrt 1-v2/c2 is why it is currently thought that no mass can exceed the speed of light, same for time dilation, but the math is based off the idea that you cannot measure...
The first postulate is perfect, the laws of physics are the same for all uniform inertial frames of reference. In fact the second postulate is perfect as well the speed of light is constant in all uniform inertial frames of reference. But here is my problem with it, the speed of any wave is...
