    One way speed of light measurement proposal

    Indeed it has veered off from my original question about a one way speed of light test setup validation using only one clock… and unfortunately, although my belief is that the one way speed of light is the same in all directions, the proposed experiment can’t distinguish between same or...

    One way speed of light measurement proposal

    Hello Samshorn, you wrote; Ok, I got it, so here we go… the directional dependency equations for light speed being c(theta) = c / 1 + k cos(theta) for simplicity, let’s make; paths M1-C and M1-M2 = 1 m path M2-C = sqrt(2) m = 1.4142136 m k= 1 c= 1m/s we then get...

    One way speed of light measurement proposal

    Ok, I found a good explanation of the directional dependence you are talking about, where I see the equations you have posted. http://mathpages.com/home/kmath229/kmath229.htm What I read from it is that this applies to a round trip path, and yes, as you mentionned, any fancy path you can...

    One way speed of light measurement proposal

    hello again Samshorn, you write; I’ve never made such a claim, quite the contrary... I’m trying to find a way to show that it IS the same in all directions, but that’s not what I’m after. My thought for this setup was to find out if T2-T1 would yield the current value of c, 299,792.458...

    One way speed of light measurement proposal

    hello Samshorn, actually, no I don't... I wanted to respond to your post #9 earlier but got sidetracked. You say that; "it must be of the form C(theta) = c/[1 + k cos(theta)] for some constant k between 0 and 1" and "...so the speed of light is c/(1+k) in that direction and...

    One way speed of light measurement proposal

    Hello ghwellsjr and lugita15, Thank you both for your comments… I do agree that in this setup, we don’t know the SOL for paths M1-C and M1-M2, we don’t know if they are equal and, if not, which is ahead or behind, we only know that the paths are of equal lengths and that the M2-C...

    One way speed of light measurement proposal

    Hello all, Samshorn, you wrote; Indeed, this is the assertion I’m making here; that the light reaches both C and M1 simultaneously because the speed of light is the same in all directions, and I think this setup makes it possible to validate. That it is equal to the two way speed...

    One way speed of light measurement proposal

    Hello all, Having read many threads and posts about light, it’s speed c, SR etc, the particular issue of not being able to measure the one way speed of light has always stood out and kept me very interested, so, after pondering about it for a while, I would like to propose an experimental...

    Time: A Scientific Exploration

    Hello all, I would agree that dx/dy does not require time since the infinite number of possible ratios are all contained at ounce in this simple equation. For me, Time is very real and is defined as the infinite realm in which space exists... it is the space of space and their common...

    Wave Length of Photon: How Many Wavelengths Does It Contain?

    Hello all, The above quote is the first part of a reponse to a 2005 OP's question about frequency of a photon, and one of the few hints to an answer to one of my own enquiries about the wavelenght of a photon... I understand that EM waves come in a vast number of frequencies, however I was...

    What Needs to Be Explored for a Unified Field Theory in Physics?

    Indeed, we're so stupid that if that someone would choose to dedicate the rest of his life to share all there is to know with us, we'd find ways not to believe him, question him, refuse this knowledge and possibly oust him... VE

    Do Humans Have Souls Beyond Mind and Body?

    Hello all, Very interesting views, comments and replies…. Imo, living human beings all have a material body, a physical mind and a ‘spiritual soul’. Living in a material world, our body is the interface between our mind and the immediate environment in which both exist. In turn, this...

    Time or Change: Which Comes First in Our Reality?

    Hello all, mdl, in your OP, you ask; Imo, at first they were fused together; Time as a potential infinite source for Change and Change as an immaterialised potential source of interaction within Time. They would then both simultaneously become actualized in a ‘Big Bang’ type...

    Does Relativity Affect How We See Simultaneous Events on a Moving Train?

    Hello all, Metz114, JesseM I have two related questions for you... Metz114, in post 46, you wrote; Are you in a carriage that is moving at a constant speed or at rest? I have no problem with the carriage being at rest, but if the carriage is in motion and the light reaches both...

    Does Relativity Affect How We See Simultaneous Events on a Moving Train?

    Hello TcheQ and kev, Originally Posted by TcheQ The observance of disparity in the time-lapse between the signal receival is not a relativity issue. Reply from kev; Good point. Even if length contraction and time dilation did not exist and even if light propogated at (c +/- v)...
