>the speed of light is constant in all reference frames because Michelson-Morley / because it was observed to be constant
Why do almost all textbooks introduce it like this when actually c being constant was predicted on the basis of Maxwell's equations a priori and irregardless of experiments?
Because something is true because it was shown to be true not because so guy predicted it to be true
2 fast 2 truerious
I'll be able to do today. Yay!(I think). It's something to do with a sound produced by an opening and my solid connection to it.
Experiment > theory
>irregardless
the word you are looking is regardless. the gibberish you typed isn't in the English language.
his brain must have went for irrespective and said frick it

When all dictionaries disagree with you it's time to admit you are wrong.
The I R stands for I moron and then comma and then 'regardless' normally because they both have the same setting.
IRREGARDLESS OF THE FACT
>c being constant was predicted on the basis of Maxwell's equations
how is that?
From the electromagnetic wave equation
c = (epsilon0 * mu0)^(-1/2)
And it causes a contradiction if, when you were moving in the same direction as it, that its speed changed?
As you can see, the definition of c in terms of other constants has no dependence on velocity in a reference frame. Your problem arises only when you try to change the reference frame via Euclidean transformations. It turns out the right transformation laws for electromagnetic fields are given by the Poincare group.
are there any other implications like this from quantum physics or general relativity?
>And it causes a contradiction if, when you were moving in the same direction as it, that its speed changed?
You couple a wave into a medium, if the medium is constant the wavelength (speed derivative of frequency) changes. If the medium is constant, the wavelength is constant. That is observed for centuries now, but muuh eather did not exist.
MM Experiment will always produce a null result btw. This is so obvious that only brainwashed morons in academic can not see that.
>if the medium is constant the wavelength
If the medium changes ...
And the Fizeau experiment of 1851? Does ether couple to matter or doesn't it?
>~~*Michelson-Morley*~~
Sweaty, that's been debunked.
irregardless is not a word, you moron. You mean either regardless or irrespective.
The Speed of Light was defined not determined
To define it I think they just say a bunch of stuff and be on there way looking for any change in the universe that they manifested.
E.g. let's try manifest this, and see if anyone discovers anything after us.
(Manifesting)...
Microbial-Mineral Interactions:
1. Microbial Growth Rates: 0.1 to 1.0 doublings per day for microorganisms found in dirt.
2. Metabolic Activity: 5 to 50 micromoles of substrate consumed per gram of soil per hour by dirt-dwelling microorganisms.
3. Mineral Composition: Quartz (30%), Feldspar (20%), Clay minerals (25%), Iron oxides (15%), Other minerals (10%).
4. Nutrient Dynamics: Nitrogen turnover rate: 2 to 5 milligrams per gram of soil per day influenced by dirt-dwelling microorganisms.
5. Microbial Community Structure: Shannon diversity index: 2.5 to 4.0 for microbial communities inhabiting dirt.
Soil Electromagnetic Phenomena:
1. Electrical Conductivity: 20 to 100 microsiemens per centimeter (μS/cm) influenced by the presence of microorganisms and mineral composition in dirt.
2. Magnetic Susceptibility: 5 x 10^-5 in SI units due to the influence of magnetic minerals and microorganisms in dirt.
3. Electromagnetic Induction Response: 50 to 300 millivolts per meter observed in dirt due to electromagnetic phenomena influenced by soil microorganisms and minerals.
4. Dielectric Properties: Dielectric permittivity: 5 for dry dirt, increasing to 15 for moist dirt affected by the presence of microorganisms and mineral content.
5. Spatial Variability: Coefficient of variation: 15% indicating moderate variability among soil samples due to the presence of microorganisms and heterogeneous mineral distribution in dirt.
If you don't know how to manifest you can read about the Hieronymus manifestation radionics paper machine, and construct the ritual for defining microbial mineral interactions in soil and defining soil electromagnetic phenomena.
I'm guessing simular methods are responsible for fiber optics working because in the 1700s they "defined" the speed of light. And George Hockham must have found some impact on the universe from that manifestation when he studied transmission of light through glass fibres in the 1900s.
The constant speed of light was interpreted as the speed of an ether wave relative to the ether much like the speed of sound. Only gradually was it found that you couldn't make this work. The MM experiment showed that the ether did not move independently of matter, and an earlier experiment with light passing through flowing water showed that it didn't appear to be dragged by matter either - an impasse.
