| 21. | Consequently, both time dilation and length contraction must be considered when conducting experiments in particle accelerators.
|
| 22. | :This is not a paradox, it just displays a complete misunderstanding of relativistic length contraction.
|
| 23. | Length contraction advocates, please explain . Preceding contribs ) 14 : 32, 29 October 2013
|
| 24. | From the perspective of the grate, the rod undergoes a length contraction and fits into the grate.
|
| 25. | Or does it expand " freely " without " being pulled ", similar to relativistic length contraction?
|
| 26. | It doesn't make sense to me that " actual length contractions occur locally " ."
|
| 27. | Basically, LCcritic seems to understand relativity as saying that length contraction is a change as an illusion.
|
| 28. | Also Lorentz ( 1892b ) proposed length contraction independently from FitzGerald in order to explain the Michelson Morley experiment.
|
| 29. | If the length contraction is given in meters per second instead of meters, length contraction would be permanent.
|
| 30. | If the length contraction is given in meters per second instead of meters, length contraction would be permanent.
