361 clocks vs 1 moving clock

Lets have fun as usual with clocks.

We take 360 clocks and set them up on a level circlular
platform.
The circle is 1 mile in circumferance.
Each clock will sit at 1 degree of the circle.
We will sync all these clocks from a single clock in the
middle by using the same length wires from the middle
to each clock.
So now we have 361 clocks all running at the same rate

We now will take a clock we will call the "dork" clock.
We will sync the dork clock with the center clock in the
360 degree clock platform then we will start to move it
around the circle.
We get the clock up to 1000 miles per second according
to the synced 361 clocks.
(1000' trips around the circle per second shown on any
and all of the 361 other clocks.)
Will this "dork" clock show 1000 revolutions every second
in it's own inertial frame?

Moran?
Ok sure.
I think you should change your nickname to

BTW: Do you always ignore the evidence stated and point
at the apostrophe problems instead?
That is pretty sad for the King of "physics".

     All right. But what makes you think it now ticks at the came
rate as the other 361 clocks?

    No, because it ticks slower than the center clock. Therefore, it
will do more than 1000 revolutions every second. The dork clock will
disagree with both the center clock and the other clocks on the
circumference.
   The physical difference between the dork clock and the other
clocks on the circumference is the centripetal force. In order for the
dork clock to travel in a circle, a force is required to keep the dork
clock moving in that circle. Without that extra force, it would travel
in a straight line and leave that circle. I don't care what is used to
apply the centripetal force. Maybe its the road. The other clocks, not
traveling in a circle, need no force to keep them on that circle.
   If the earth would disappear, your 361 clocks would stay in place
by inertia alone. They would remain in the same spot relative to each
other. However, your dork clock would move in a straight line away
from the other clocks.
    The dork clock is "malfunctioning," if you insist. It
"malfunctions" because of the centripetal force. It does not agree
with the other clocks. However, there are several ways to correct for
its anomalous behavior without referring to the other clocks. One way
is use an accelerometer to measure its centripetal acceleration, then
calculate the relative velocity with the center clock using this
acceleration. Then one uses the Lorentz time dilation formula to find
the correct time relative to the "center clock."
   It been fun to argue with you. However, I will stop unless you
make a comment about the centripetal force. I have presented you with
an argument. I am not responsible for your understanding |:-)

I don't think such.
That is the problem.
and 361 clocks are saying it is malfunctioning.

So it first failed to know that curcumference did not change
physically at all.
and...
It will think it has traveled 1 mile when it has physically traveled
more than such if the clock is truly running slower.
and... of course 361 other clocks prove it is wrong.

So
Why would you "correct the clock" Do you actually think
the clock IS malfunctioning and the relative timing is wrong?
If it is wrong then fixing the clock will simply be accepting that
the 361 other clocks are correct.
Or do you wish to dissagree with the 361 clock proving
it has malfunctioned and just use it so you can crash into
planets once you leave the circle to travel to other
worlds that could care less abotu your clock malfunctioning?

    Malfunctioning is a value laden word. The important thing is
navigation. If I use clocks that disagree with each other, I would get
lost and maybe have an accident. I don't care if the dork was
"correct" or the 361 clocks are "correct." However I perform my
navigation calculations, I have to deal with the disagreement that was
predicted according to relativity.
> If it is wrong then fixing the clock will simply be accepting that

    I suppose if one defines "correct" that way. In any case, I have
to make a second adjustment in order to get agreement. The dork clock
is exactly the same as the 361 clocks except for centripetal force.
The fact they tick at different rates can thus be in a sense
attributed to the centripetal force. The amount I have to adjust the
"dork" clock is determined by the centripetal force. Which clock is
"correct" and which clock "malfunctioned" is beyond my Asperger
riddled brain to determine.
   I merely worry about the differences between clocks, I don't
pronounce a moral judgment on them. I just want to get home. The real
question is how to use the clocks in navigation.
    Do you agree or disagree that there is a difference in the
performance of the dork clock? You haven't seemed to disagree with me
as to the behavior of the clock, you just made a moral judgment on the
poor little ticker. Sure, he malfunctioned. Sure it is incorrect. What
does insulting it do for navigation?

   I would "correct" the dork clock. That is what they do with GPS.
They correct for the different rates the clocks tick. If the engineers
didn't use relativity in their GPS devices, then missiles cars and
spaceships could crash into each other.
   You haven't made any comment about centripetal force yet. Please
make some meaningful comment on centripetal force in this problem, or
I will stop sharing my insight with you.

If you don't care if the dork clock is correct or not
why would you try and "correct" it at all.
You seem to be dealing with the disagreement as if
the dork clock is the problem?
I hope you realize the dork clock is the problem.
because if you don't. You are planet dust.

The clock is malfunctioning and 361 clocks prove such.
You even agree and are goign to try and "adjust to the
proper time of the 361 other clocks.
I am not insulting the clock,
I am laughing at morons that think time changed rate
even though 361 clocks are proving the clock simply
malfunctioned and time did not change rate at all.

Wrong,
Relativity is not the "only way" to correct the malfunctioning clocks
I see you are stuck in the GPS works "because of relativity.
That is sad and again proves that relativity even has a clue
that the clocks are "malfunctioning".
Sad..
GPS proves "time" did not change rate and they actually fix
the clocks for it to work at all.

I need not talk about centripital force, it is not even a true
force by itself, it is a combination of forces.
Not a true force by itself at all.
Do you not understand what centripital force actually is?

   You are confusing centrifugal with centripetal.
   Centrifugal is the pseudoforce that exists only in the rotating
reference frame. The centrifugal force is equal in magnitude as and
opposite in direction to the centripetal force, which exists in all
frames. Centrifugal force does not exist in an inertial frame, and
can't be associated with another body even in the rotating frame.
    Centripetal force is a true force that exists in the inertial
frame. The centripetal force is real in the sense that it can always
be associated with another body or field in the inertial frame. The
centripetal force causes the body it acts upon to travel in a curved
path. If the path is circular, the centripetal force is the force that
makes the body travel in that circular path.
> Do you not understand what centripetal force actually is?
    Yes. Centripetal force is the sum of real forces. It can always
be called something else, since centripetal really isn't defined in
terms of what causes the force. It is defined in terms of the
trajectory the force causes.
    For a car on a circular racetrack, the centripetal force is the
frictional force between wheels of the care and the ground. It is
centripetal only because the force causes the car to revolve in a
circle. However, you can also call the centripetal force in this case
as a frictional force. Friction refers to the thing causing the force
(in this case, the track). Centripetal refers to the racetrack.
    Centrifugal force refers to the "imaginary" force that the driver
perceives. It exists only in the rotating reference frame of the
driver. The question of whether the centrifugal force is real, or
whether the drivers mind is "malfunctioning," is rather stupid. I
acknowledge that if those wheels slip on the road, the driver dies
painfully. Before he dies, he will think "that was some centrifugal
force." However, the viewer on the stands doesn't see a centrifugal
force. He sees a car slipping on the road, and maybe scuff marks on
the road caused by the frictional centripetal force.
    In the Hefele Keating experiment, the centripetal force was the
difference between of the weight of the clock and the contact force
magnitude of the seat of the plane the clock was resting on. The
centripetal force was real, as was the weight and contact force.
   Okay, I'm out of the discussion. Goodbye.

Please do leave this discussion
If you truly believe that centripetal force is not a conbination
of other forces that cause it.
You apparently don't get that the other forces are the "real"
forces and just like centrifugal, centripetal force is also
just a combination of other "real" forces and not a force
of it's own.
Sheesh.
You will never understand a simple clock malfunction
if you can't even find out such a fact about centripetal force
not being a force all on it's own..

     Okay, I don't want to leave misrepresented. I never said that
centripetal wasn't a combination of forces. In fact, I actually
described what the other forces were. You said that centripetal force
wasn't real. I did not.

    Interesting. In your mind, being a combination is the same as not
being real. You just said that one can't make a real thing out of a
combination of other real things.
     Example: A house is real. Now, a house is always a combination
of the materials that make it. For example, you may live in house made
of cinder blocks. Your walls may be padded. The house also has
electrical wiring, windows made of glass, with wooden frames, etc.
etc. All these things are real. However, the house is also real. One
can legitimately ask what the total mass of the house is. The mass of
the house would be the sum of the masses of all these other
components: cinder blocks, pads, wiring, glass, wood, etc. The house
is real.
    I said that centripetal force is real. You said that centripetal
force isn't real. I mentioned the real forces that combine to make
centripetal force.
      A centripetal force on a body is the component of force
perpendicular to the tangential line of that body, irregardless of
what causes that force.
    I stated that the cause of the "permanent" time dilation in the
Hefele Keating experiment. Time dilation in the HK experiment is just
as real as the centripetal force that causes it. In the case of the HK
experiment, the centripetal force on the clock is the combination of
all vertical forces on the clock.
    I may have made a mistake by omitting air pressure. The
centripetal force on the clock in the HK experiment is a combination
of the weight (by definition vertical down), the contact force of the
seat, and the vertical component of air pressure (i.e., the buoyant
force). Others may find other significant components of force, such as
applied by the seat belt.
    The nice thing about theories like relativity is the exact
details, such as what the vertical force is composed of, doesn't
really effect the final results of the theory. All that matters is the
combination of forces, which in this case is the centripetal force.
One doesn't have to explicitly mention the force at all, it is all
taken care of in the choice of inertial frame.
> Sheesh.
> You will never understand a simple clock malfunction
     You are using the word malfunction in an entirely novel way,
which some may call wrong. If using a theory knows ahead of time the
exact behavior of the device is known, and and that behavior is
compensated for, it is not called a malfunction. The GPS satellites
use relativity to predict the behavior of their clocks ahead of the
time they are to be used. Since this calculation is part of the
regular operation of the GPS, one can not call that behavior a
malfunction.
    In fact, how does the word malfunction add anything to science?
It doesn't add any fundamental understanding, and it can't be used to
build a better clock. I think you meant it as a shock word, to gain
attention. You want to use it, fine.
   If you insist, I will even start referring to the "Lorentz time
dilation"  as the "Lorentz time malfunction." Fine. I will use the
same formulas, I will refer to the same forces, and the variables, as
I have used before. The time dilation in an inertial frame depends on
relative velocity, as before, and can be calculated ahead of use by
the Lorentz time dilation formula. Only now instead of dilation, it
will be called malfunction.
   The time dilation malfunction formula is:
t'2-t'1=(t2-t1)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
   Gee, nothings changed. Relativity is still correct.
> if you can't even find out such a fact about centripetal force
> not being a force all on it's own.
     I don't know what you mean by "not being a force on its own."

    Are you living on your own?

    In any case, you haven't yet made a meaningful statement about
the centripetal force. You have merely insulted it. This is what I
find interesting about your trolls. Most trolls insult only people.
You seem to go out of your way to insult inanimate quantities. The
time dilation is a malfunction.
    And now the centripetal force is not a "force on its own." I
would love to see a cartoon showing a centripetal force (components
labeled) being told by its parents that it should start existing on
its own. I don't know who its parents are. Maybe its components?

I said it is not a force on it's own,
I did not say it was not a "real" force,
I said it was a conbined force just like centrifugal force is.
You said I am confusing it.
You are the one confusing it for being a force of it's own.
Nevermind
You will never get it.
Since you have made up your ROM already
and you have no RAM to accept a new program at all.

Just want to remind you that "stuff falls because of gravity" is not a
theory of gravity. And "if clocks don't keep time with each other it's
because at least one of them is malfunctioning" is not a clock
malfunction theory.

Now, when you can come up with an account of the exact cause of a
clock's malfunction and can show how to calculate HOW MUCH that
clock's rate will be affected as a function of the presence of that
cause, THEN you will have a clock malfunction theory.

You can make up your own "theories" about what is a theory.
I don't care.
But of course, that is your theory about my theory not being
a theory.

The cause is simple.
The clock malfunction is caused by any g changes that effect
the clocks tick rate.
It is not my fault you fail to understand the use of single
standards of time and distance in science.

Good. Then let's suppose that the g changes by 0.1 m/s^2  (that is, it
goes from 9.8 m/s^2 to 9.7 m/s^2) over a time interval of 0.3 seconds.
Now, by how much should the rate of the clock change, in percent?

A theory would be able to tell you that.

Do you have a theory?

I told you,
You use GR and SR to find out such stuff.
Sheesh!
don't you even read things at all anymore.

> A theory would be able to tell you that.

My theory is based upon GR and SR,
You love those so I based it all upon such since
it is infallable.
The only difference is my theory does not say time changed
It says the clock malfunctioned when it is a clock and
the action/re-action rate changed when it is not a clock.
Sheesh PD get a clue.

Nu-uh. SR and GR *derive* their calculations of the effects on the
clocks from a wholly different reason than "g forces".
You cannot simply say, "Hey, use the end formulas that SR and GR
produce, but say they come from different reasons entirely!"
Scientists don't buy that kind of flim-flam. For that matter, neither

about clocks and thier malfunctions and treat them

But if they're wrong about them, then their equations are wrong, and
so are their predictions. Which means if you have a BETTER
explanation, then you will be able to derive your OWN predictions from
your own explanation.

What does your theory predict, Spaceman?

How can the equations be right, if they are DERIVED from causes that

If I use Newtons equations to find a force and then I say the force is

by blue fairies to begin with, does that make the equations wrong?

No, but if you *derive* Newton's equations with the assumption of blue

The equations are not wrong, your assumption is wrong,

Start with YOUR assumptions, and show that you can *derive* the same

Scientists do. Most rational people do.

> for such,

Scientists do not make up a "physical cause" and blindly say they
account for the effects they see. Science requires that the effects
are *shown* to be caused by the claimed "physical cause". This is the
whole point of science, to *show* that certain causes are responsible
for certain effects and that the effects are not due to other, more
important causes. It does this by working in two directions -- by
showing that the presence of certain causes allows you to *derive* the
necessary following of the effects; and by showing in controlled
experiment that if you change the supposed cause and change nothing
else, then the effect appears or disappears.

Your approach, of blindly matching up what you consider to be
plausible causes and observed effects, leads to disasters and would
get you fired from any job with any impact.

They did for "time dilation", in fact they have no "physical cause"
at all.

Lets cut to the chase scene PD.
Explain the "physical cause" for the single clock
to "show a different time" on it's face then the 361
other clocks.
And prove the clock has indeed ""existed" for a
lesser time period than the 361 other clocks have.

Sure they do. I've been telling Marcel Luttgens all about what the
physical cause is.

Now, you have a funny limitation on what a "physical cause" is. You
say a physical cause must be matter acting on matter, otherwise it's
not a physical cause. That is because you are a bonehead with very
limited conceptual breadth.

The physical cause that is behind time dilation is well documented --
they are the laws of electrodynamics and the fact that laws of physics
don't change from inertial frame to inertial frame -- and time
dilation is *derived* from these physical causes.

You on the other hand have NO derivation of "g forces" acting on
clocks and how that produces time dilation. You have a blind guess
that those two match up, but that doesn't have any bearing on science.

As I said, I'm in the middle of explaining all this in a series of
posts on sci.physics.relativity, in conversation with Luttgens. Surely
you can go there to catch up.

So I take it you are too lazy -- obstinately lazy -- to look up the
physical cause for time dilation in another thread on these
newsgroups.

And you have absolutely no idea how to derive from "g forces" the
amount of time dilation to expect.

But you feel free to loudly boo and heckle from the peanut gallery.
The difference between you and a drunken heckler is that the drunken
heckler can always blame his embarrassing behavior on the fact that

You are not providing any "physical" cause in that thread,
Why you think you are is your loss.
You are basically coming up with "spacetime" being
a cause, that is about as good as the blue fairies.
I feel sorry that you can't grasp that.

You also have a problem with using such a method
of "time changing" because nothing else cares about
the time changing on the "one clock" and such changes
are not occuring physically at all and that is why
the malfunctioning clock's rate will causes crashes
if you actually use it as the "correct" time.
But of course you are too stupid to look up the history
of clocks and problems that cause crashes when a
moving clock is "thought" to be the real time.
You are a complete utter brainwashed moron with no
chance of saving.
You are a dipshit that thinks "multiple standards for time"

You probably mean that I haven't convinced YOU with a proof. This is

   Well, I told you at least five times. The physical difference is
the centripetal force. The dork clock has a huge centripetal force
applied to it. The 361 clocks do not have a centripetal force acted on
it.
   The reason that no one can give you more detail is because you
haven't told us what propells the dork clock. The dork clock is moving
in a circle. Is it attached to rocket engines, or is it in
gravitational orbit. Maybe the center clock is positively charge while
the dork clock is negatively charged. You haven't told us how the
clock stays in orbit. However, this detail isn't necessary.
   All that matters is that there is some force applied to the dork
clock that keeps it in a circular orbit. This force comes from bodies
other than the dork clock. Whatever causes this force is what causes
the difference in clock rate.
    I call this force centripetal. Some other poster may wish to call
this force the radial force, or the axial force, or any one of many
names for the centripetal force. If you want to call this a
malfunction force, go ahead.
     If you want to say this force is unreal, I have to disagree. If
it was unreal, the dork clock would travel in a straight line. You
said the clock was moving in a circle. I have given you the physical
reason for the difference in clock rate, regardless of what you decide
to call it.

     Others have mentioned space time. Spacetime is one way of
representing relativity theory, so I don't disagree with them. My
preference in any nonquantum problem is to start with force diagrams.
This is another way to represent reality, but it gets mathematically
hairy when applied to relativistic problems. It is conceptually easier
for me than spacetime, and winds up giving the same answers anyway.
    At no point have I mentioned space time. Don't misrepresent me.

    Not true. I say that proper time can only be measured by a
malfunctioning clock. There is no scientific definition of either the
words "proper" or "malfunction." You are the only one who uses the
words proper and malfunction in the way you do.
      The GPS is a useful navigation device using satellites. Each
satellite contains a malfunctioning clock. Each clock registers
improper time, which the computers use to calculate the proper time.
The satellites also include rubber rulers. The GPS system can help
missiles find their targets to within a meter, or sometimes much
better. Also surveyers of different types. Using differential
techniques, a GPS can locate a position within a centimeter (an extra
tower is sometimes necessary for differential techniques).
    All this using malfunctioning clocks, improper time, rubber
rulers and relativistic equations. You don't understand GPS. This is
sad |:-)

Ok,
Bye bye.
Have fun in rubber ruler land,
