MMX Null = Anisotropy = Ether

In 1887 Michelson and Morley predicted an interferometer experiment
(MMX) would show interference of light due to the presence of the
ether. When their experiment produced a null result, an explanation
was required. Lorentz suggested an answer after others pointed the
way. The light path across the parallel and perpendicular arms of the
interferometer equipment had been assumed to be of unequal length due
to the movement of the apparatus through space. The difference in
light path length was equalised in Lorentz’s theory by a contraction
of the parallel arm proportional to the speed of the earth (v) on
which the lab was located. However, Lorentz was wrong. The null result
of the experiment (MMX) is caused by the anisotropy of light which in
turn is caused by the ether. The speed of light over the perpendicular
arm is c, unimpeded and unassisted by the ether. On the parallel arm,
the speed upstream is c-v, retarded by the ether. Downstream, it is c
+v, assisted by the ether. The null result is determined by the
formula

perpendicular c = parallel (c+v+c-v)/2 = null result.

Conclusions: No Lorentz length contraction or time dilation, no
Einstein constancy of light. Anisotropy of light and existence of
ether confirmed. 105 years of a false notion demolished in 222 words.

A null MMX mean isotropy, not anisotropy. And it also meant no simple fixed
aether (as was thought to exist at the time)

So you're wrong from the first line

And here you make an elementary math error. You are claiming that
the average velocity is the average of the velocities. That is
not true. The average velocity is the total distance divided
by the total time. This was well understood by Michelson and Morley
as well as Lorentz. Your math mistake is a common one among cranks
here.

In case you lack of math knowledge is such that you are unable
to follow this, look at the following example. If you drive one
mile at 30 miles per hour and then one mile at 90 miles per hour,
according to you, the average speed will be (90+30)/2=60. However,
the correct answer is that the time of the first mile is 2 minutes
and the times of the second mile is 40 seconds so the total time
is 2 minutes and 40 seconds for the two miles. Your average speed
is 60* 2 / 2.666 = 45 miles per hour.



Conclusions: No Lorentz length contraction or time dilation, no
Einstein constancy of light. Anisotropy of light and existence of
ether confirmed. 105 years of a false notion demolished in 222 words.

Conclusion: Peter does not know math but assumes that if he disagrees
with reality, then reality is wrong. Peter is also assuming that no
work has been done in science in the last century.


Doug, the time upstream for 11m of the parallel arm is 0.000000036670[/quote]
seconds and downstream 0.000000036663 seconds for a total time of
0.000000073333 seconds which gives a speed of 299999997m/sec for
22m upstream and downstream.

Doug, in your specific example you calculated different times for
the car at 30 miles and 90 miles an hour to come up with
an average of 45 miles for a distance of 2 miles. My answer
to that was to calculate the actual times over the parallel arm also
in two sections, first 11m upstream at c-v, then 11m downstream
at c+v. The result was an average speed of 299999997m/sec. I did not
just calculate (300000000+300000000)/2.

If had even a slight understanding of middle school algebra, you
wouldn't have made such a spectacle of yourself.

MMX Null = Anisotropy = Ether

In 1887 Michelson and Morley predicted an interferometer experiment
(MMX) would show interference of light due to the presence of the
ether. When their experiment produced a null result, an explanation
was required. Lorentz suggested an answer after others pointed the
way. The light path across the parallel and perpendicular arms of the
interferometer equipment had been assumed to be of unequal length due
to the movement of the apparatus through space. The difference in
light path length was equalised in Lorentz’s theory by a contraction
of the parallel arm proportional to the speed of the earth (v) on
which the lab was located. However, Lorentz was wrong. The null result
of the experiment (MMX) is caused by the anisotropy of light which in
turn is caused by the ether. The speed of light over the perpendicular
arm is c, unimpeded and unassisted by the ether. On the parallel arm,
the speed upstream is c-v, retarded by the ether. Downstream, it is c
+v, assisted by the ether. The null result is determined by the
formula

perpendicular c = parallel (c+v+c-v)/2 = null result.

And here you make an elementary math error. You are claiming that
the average velocity is the average of the velocities. That is
not true. The average velocity is the total distance divided
by the total time. This was well understood by Michelson and Morley
as well as Lorentz. Your math mistake is a common one among cranks
here.

In case you lack of math knowledge is such that you are unable
to follow this, look at the following example. If you drive one
mile at 30 miles per hour and then one mile at 90 miles per hour,
according to you, the average speed will be (90+30)/2=60. However,
the correct answer is that the time of the first mile is 2 minutes
and the times of the second mile is 40 seconds so the total time
is 2 minutes and 40 seconds for the two miles. Your average speed
is 60* 2 / 2.666 = 45 miles per hour.

Conclusions: No Lorentz length contraction or time dilation, no
Einstein constancy of light. Anisotropy of light and existence of
ether confirmed. 105 years of a false notion demolished in 222 words.

Conclusion: Peter does not know math but assumes that if he disagrees
with reality, then reality is wrong. Peter is also assuming that no
work has been done in science in the last century.

Doug, the time upstream for 11m of the parallel arm is 0.000000036670
seconds and downstream 0.000000036663 seconds for a total time of
0.000000073333 seconds which gives a speed of 299999997m/sec for
22m upstream and downstream.

So you really do not understand the algebra. Now, try doing
the algebra rather than rounding the numbers. You really should
be embarrassed since all of this has been well know for over
a century. We expect cranks to be a little bit more creative.

Doug, why not tell me where I am wrong instead of arguing at hominem?
I bet you can't.

I did tell you. Look at the top of the post. You assume that the
average velocity is the average of the velocities. That is wrong.
Work out the algebra, if you know how. You will see where the
Lorentz contraction term comes from.

Doug, in your specific example you calculated different times for
the car at 30 miles and 90 miles an hour to come up with
an average of 45 miles for a distance of 2 miles. My answer
to that was to calculate the actual times over the parallel arm also
in two sections, first 11m upstream at c-v, then 11m downstream
at c+v. The result was an average speed of 299999997m/sec. I did not
just calculate (300000000+300000000)/2.

So I take this to mean that you are unable to do the algebra
to calculate the average speed in the interferometer. You should
be pretty embarrassed to make such a stupid mistake. The correct
result has been known for over a century. You really should study
some.

But, in any case, you notice that the average speed, even when you
just do the numbers to obscure the result show that the average
velocity is not c and thus there should have been an effect as
has been known for well over a century. Thus you are just showing
that you are a crank and do not even understand the results when
you take your numbers.

Doug, the difference from c is 3m/sec. Miller did in 1926 the[/quote]
interferometer
experiment at Mt Wilson. He predicted a fringe shift of 1.12 but got
0.088.
This is enough to prove c-v+c+v.
Your two speed car formula is 2m/((1m/30miles/hr)+(1m/90miles/hr))
=45miles/hr.
My formula for MMX is 22m/((11m/(c-v))+(11m(c+v)))=299999997m/sec.

Jerry, your calculations are good and almost correct. The time
for the perpendicular arm is not 22m/c but slighly more.
Even so, the difference of 0.0000000000000007253sec
is well covered by the observed fringe shift which of course
was less than the predicted fringe shift.
