What is Circular motion ??
The direction of a body's motion is constantly changing when it moves in a circle at a steady speed. http://www.studyandjobs.com/circular-motion.html or for Physics learners, freshers who wants to see some easy understandable notes... http://www.studyandjobs.com/physics.html regards |

wrote in message ps.com... What is Circular motion ?? The direction of a body's motion is constantly changing when it moves in a circle at a steady speed. Does this then become an acceleration each moment to change the straight line directional vector? Spirit of Truth (using June's e-mail to communicate to you)! |

What if you are rotating y=x^2 around the x-axis? What is a circular motion then? (assume Euclidean geometry; then repeat for two other geometries.) /BAH |

Yes. - Randy Thanks! Then why such a hullaballoo made in the past over the concept that light bends in a gravitational field? Surely in the M-M experiment the travelling back and forth light had to bend with the Earth in order for it to appear that it was going in a straight line back and forth? from: Spirit of Truth (using June's e-mail to communicate to you)! |

Yes. Thanks! Then why such a hullaballoo made in the past over the concept that light bends in a gravitational field? Because Newtonian theory says gravity affects masses, and light is massless. Surely in the M-M experiment the travelling back and forth light had to bend with the Earth in order for it to appear that it was going in a straight line back and forth? The M-M experiment has nothing to do with gravitational bending of light. The earth doesn't have enough gravity to cause a noticeable effect. The answer to your question is "no". The light doesn't have to "bend with the earth to appear to be going in a straight line back and forth". By "bend with the earth" do you mean follow the curve of the earth, so that it would be the same height above the earth's surface everywhere? Light doesn't do that. - Randy |
