Back in Galileo>s day, centuries ago, people were just used to

Galileo made it clear that you had to be more careful and ask "speed

problems with that, as you can see. A hundred years ago, people were
just used to referring to "the length" of an object, as though it

Poor PD again can not grasp that just because the relative speed
of a car moving at 65 next to mine is 0, it has no bearing on
the reality that the car is moving at 65 according to anything it hits.
Again PD proves he sufffers from MSS,
Multiple Standard Syndrome.
and he appears to be non -curable.

That is not what happens. In any given inertial reference

Let us summarize:
For a single object: Dirk>s finger
1) Different frame, different length
2) One frame, one constant length
Dirk>s appendage will always measure 10cm in his own frame, no
matter how hard he cries.
Well, unless something happens to compress the finger or lop it
off, like with an axe. And by "his own frame", I assume you mean
the inertial reference frame in which he is at rest.
So it>s agreed. Dirk>s appendage is 10cm in his own frame.
Let us proceed...
Another person by the name of Doug was also unfortunately born
into the same situation. Doug measures his appendage at exactly
10cm. Dirk and Doug decide to compare notes and place their
appendages side by side. They are exactly equal at 10cm.
Dirk then flies off to the Waffler Galaxy at constant velocity of
0.995c. He peers into his telescope and laughs, measuring Doug>s
appendage at 1cm. Dirk gets scared for a second and hastily
checks his own appendage and is happy to know it is still 10cm.
Meanwhile, Doug peers into his telescope and measures Dirk>s
appendage at 1cm. He double checks his own and measures 10cm.
Yes, exactly.
PD will say all 4 measurements are valid.
Yes.
But, would anybody deny
that Dirk>s and Doug>s appendages are still equal in length?
Some people would, some people wouldn>t...
Thus Dirk would swear his appendage is constant at 10cm
He would *measure* it to be 10cm in the reference frame in which the
appendage is at rest, yes. Physics is more about what will be
*measured* and doesn>t get metaphysical about what "is".
Doug would pledge that his appendage is constant at 10cm
Thus we can compare the two appendages anytime, by using their 'at
rest' measurements. Though Dirk may be going at 0.995c to the left,
and Doug may be going 0.1c to the front, we can always say that
their fingers are equal based on the 'at rest' measurements.
Everybody agrees?
That>s fine. Keep in mind, though that relativistic length
contraction is about what gets measured for two objects in relative
motion, from a *single* reference frame, not in two different
reference frames.
So you are saying if we placed a ruler next to the appendage,
that the appendage would change length according to that
ruler depending on where we look at it from.
If the appendage goes flying by your ruler, yes, that>s exactly what
it says.

No it does not actually.
Again you prove you are completely brainwashed and suffering
from MSS.
You continue to prove you have no clue how to time things
properly, you have no clue about the most important function
of a clock, and of course you have no clue about "physical"
measurement.

Poor PD.
He does not get that would only prove the constant from source,
and nobody is saying there is anything wrong on that end.
The observer is the one that would measure the different speeds.
If the observer is at rest with the source, he will measure c
If the observer is moving towards the source, he will measure c+
If the observer is moving away from the source he will measure c-
It is amazing you can figure this all out for anything except for waves

Let me rephrase the problem. Since most of the physicists seem to
have difficulty grasping an esoteric concept such as time, we will use
length. This is a geometric concept and it is easier to picture for
abstract-challenged minds. This is a valid analogy, as SR postulates
time changes with velocity as well as length changes.
Let me start with a simple example:
Dirk is standing in space. He extends his index finger in the +x
direction. There is a wart at the end of his finger, which is
stationary with the finger. The wart measures his finger as 10cm.
Now a neutrino passes by with v=0.995c going in the +x direction.
Using the Lorentz Transformation Equations, the neutrino measures
Dirk>s finger and notes it has contracted to 1cm. The wart makes
measurements at time=2,4,6,8,10 seconds. The neutrino makes
measurements at time=1,3,5,7,9 seconds.
Question: What happens to Dirk>s finger, does it alternate in size
from 1cm to 10cm to 1 cm to 10cm etc, as the neutrino and the wart
alternately make their measurements?
--------------
even if you intended to bypass the time problem
you cant get away with it
so the reality problem remains in the 'Time'
measurment!!
because time is always relative to some
chosen motion reference
and motion depends technically on 'time'
(the relative motion reference)
that its measuement is motion dependant!!
(it is not constant )!!

Poor PD again can not grasp that just because the relative speed
of a car moving at 65 next to mine is 0, it has no bearing on
the reality that the car is moving at 65 according to anything it
hits.
Not so. If the car moving at 65 mph hits a car moving at 62 mph in the
same direction, then the 5mph bumper will probably absorb the blow
just fine.
So the 0 it had in it>s own frame is yet again proven wrong.
You truly are lost PD.

Nonsense. In its own frame, the car it collided with had all the KE.
It was, after all, moving at 3 mph in this frame.
I know this is all terribly confusing to you....

That is not what happens. In any given inertial reference

in a different inertial reference frame, the length has a
different constant value.
Let us summarize:
For a single object: Dirk>s finger
1) Different frame, different length
2) One frame, one constant length
Dirk>s appendage will always measure 10cm in his own frame,
no matter how hard he cries.
Well, unless something happens to compress the finger or lop
it off, like with an axe. And by "his own frame", I assume
you mean the inertial reference frame in which he is at rest.
So it>s agreed. Dirk>s appendage is 10cm in his own frame.
Let us proceed...
Another person by the name of Doug was also unfortunately born
into the same situation. Doug measures his appendage at exactly
10cm. Dirk and Doug decide to compare notes and place their
appendages side by side. They are exactly equal at 10cm.
Dirk then flies off to the Waffler Galaxy at constant velocity
of
0.995c. He peers into his telescope and laughs, measuring
Doug>s appendage at 1cm. Dirk gets scared for a second and
hastily checks his own appendage and is happy to know it is
still 10cm. Meanwhile, Doug peers into his telescope and
measures Dirk>s appendage at 1cm. He double checks his own and
measures 10cm.
Yes, exactly.
PD will say all 4 measurements are valid.
Yes.
But, would anybody deny
that Dirk>s and Doug>s appendages are still equal in length?
Some people would, some people wouldn>t...
Thus Dirk would swear his appendage is constant at 10cm
He would *measure* it to be 10cm in the reference frame in which
the appendage is at rest, yes. Physics is more about what will be
*measured* and doesn>t get metaphysical about what "is".
Doug would pledge that his appendage is constant at 10cm
Thus we can compare the two appendages anytime, by using their
'at rest' measurements. Though Dirk may be going at 0.995c to
the left, and Doug may be going 0.1c to the front, we can always
say that their fingers are equal based on the 'at rest'
measurements.
Everybody agrees?
That>s fine. Keep in mind, though that relativistic length
contraction is about what gets measured for two objects in
relative motion, from a *single* reference frame, not in two
different reference frames.
So you are saying if we placed a ruler next to the appendage,
that the appendage would change length according to that
ruler depending on where we look at it from.
If the appendage goes flying by your ruler, yes, that>s exactly what
it says.
No it does not actually.
Ah, yes, it does. In experiment. Exactly.
Wrong as usual.
Not one single experiment has proven "length" contraction.

like Spaceman -- still have problems with that, as you can see. A
hundred years ago, people were just used to referring to "the
length" of an object, as though it were
obvious there is only one true length of an object. Einstein and
others made it clear that you had to be more careful and ask "in

Nonsense. In its own frame, the car it collided with had all the KE.

So you think it was 0 and 3 instead of 65 and 62 like you orginally

There is no difference in the collision, which is how you said we
would know it was 65 and not 0, from the KE in the collision.
[quote]PD. you should make up your mind.
Is the 0 being used or the 62 being used for the lesser KE?
