I don't know what you mean by "preferential frame" As I have said speed is only meaningful as a relative measure. Quoted speed of the same thing can be can be different depending on what you are comparing it with. Eg in a plane you walk up the aisle, your speed relative to the plane is walking pace, relative to the ground is 500mph.
Do you accept that we are travelling at 64000mph in order to orbit the sun?
If you don't know what I mean by preferential frame then you don't know enough about what Relativity means to discuss it. It's a bit like Evolution. Everyone thinks they understand it..but when you probe a bit.
Speed is not only meaningful as a relative measure. Is the speed of light relative to my speed?
Ha, I'm cracking up, you have got to be taking the P*&s. "you don't know enough......" this from someone who thinks the balcony is bending up, does not understand the train analogy, thinks the Earth is flat, thinks the sun moves at 1mph. Refuses to acknowledge the earth orbit's the sun, probably thinks the moon is made of cheese. I think I'll just have to leave you to revel in your ignorance.
Light is constant regardless of what the observer is doing, I'm not going to bother trying to explain why.
Clanad, I think the expression you're looking for is 'falls off the edge.'
Go ahead, Loosehead, put me out of my misery. Why is light constant no matter what the observer is doing? And which observer? If I'm on the big round sun burning my toes, is the light coming from it to earth curved, but only for me????
Marge B what is ur purpose u want to infuriate us all so much that we swear at u and get banned ?
say why don't u go and create ur own world without relativity (admiting i'm not infored on what it is but it's satisfied science for over 50 yrs so it should run a bit longer) and so forth and guess what u may end up holding the atom bomb instead !
for anybody interested as i recal the earth is termed a sheroid meaning it is not a perfect sphere being "squashed" at each pole by about 21 Km and as Marge B is so well infored he/she can convert that into miles and how kind of the knowledgable sould if he acconsents to lower him/herself to such a stupid calculation having mathematically proven that eistein missed out on something
ps if u r unable to do the calculation i suggest u retire - my god what free info can do fancy if people beleive the trash ur putting in pubblic domain
