Henri Wilson: Whatever happened to the square root? (30-Apr-2003) |
|
The Lorentz transforms involve sqrt ((c^2-v^2)/c^2) or 1/c.sqrt(c^2-v^2). OR better still 1/c.sqrt (v+c)(v-c) But relativity says you can't add velocities linearly. You have to use "(v+c)(1+vc/c^2). So instead of having just (c+v) and (c-v) the LT's should be 1/c.sqrt{(v+c)(1+vc/c^2)(v-c)(1-vc/c^2)} That simplifies to just (c^2-v^2) or c^2(1-(c/v)^2) which is what classical relativity claims it should be anyway. Whatever happened to the square root? Henri Wilson. There is NO BIG BANG and the universe IS NOT expanding.
