Re: Are all SRists soooo dense ? As SRians have shown themselves so impervious to elementary reasoning, I present hereafter the simplest proof that the so-called Lorentz transformation are wrong. In the LT x' = f(x - vt) t' = f(t - vx/c^2), where f = 1/sqrt(1 - v^2/c^2), the variable x can take any imaginable value, according to SRians. If this is not the case, the LT make of course no sense at all, and SR, which is based on them, is false. The "time" LT can take the form t' = ft(1 - vx/tc^2). Then, f = t' / t(1 - vx/tc^2), or 1/sqrt(1 - v^2/c^2) = t' / t(1 - vx/tc^2). According to elementary algebra, this equality is only possible if, and only if, t' = t * sqrt(1 - v^2/c^2), and x = vt. Clearly, the only value that the variable x can take is vt, hence the Lorentz transformation reduce to x' = 0 t' = t * sqrt(1 - v^2/c^2). Iow, the LT are the consequence of a logical error, made by Einstein, and endorsed by SRians since almost a century. Marcel Luttgens |
