'Never use one word if you can get away with ten!' seems to be central to most of the 'answers' to questions you didn't even ask! :D
OK - your question - 'The exact way in which the constancy (or/and the invariance) of the speed of light was deduced before 1905?'...
So, unless I've got it wrong...
I never said it 'penetrated' anything. Believably! Seriously! Read it again - I said it prevents voltage -gradients- from being created across any part of his body.
PS - Any more examples of me 'continuing to contradict' myself?... maybe starting with one example of where I did actually...
(YES)
The point of the suit is not to somehow 'stop the occupant's voltage from becoming that of the line'... it's to prevent voltage -gradients- from being created across any part of his body. What 'does the damage' is not the voltage per se... it's the current that flows solely 'cos a...
Into the lions den! Lordie, what a contentious issue! :nb)
So, why are birds not shocked ? Errr.. they can be... with very high voltages...
Well, at the risk of starting a war here, I will offer you another slant on this matter that if I am correct, wasn't even mentioned by anyone else! And that...
Yes, It wobbles... and it spins kinda slowly around a vertical axis while fairly ripping around in a wobbly sort of way!
"Any mechanical system or application"?
Hmmm... in a sortof way, yes!
Consider zero wobble vertically/axially, and make everything 2 dimensional - 'flat' - with the wobble...
Reviewing my previous question, I believe I can 're-model' it in a way that is 'mathematically equivalent' and will so will allow me to continue with my project.
It addresses the question in terms of Great Circle/Spherical geometry, which although I can find relevant articles on the internet...
'Very small steps'... yes, an 'iterative approach'... that is how I have done it in terms of getting figures for complete ballistic trajectories... literally 'finite element' calculations, a metre/meter at a time, and it gives excellent results. My current problem is really 'nit-picking on top...
I am writing a program aimed at 'gun nuts' designed to display Coriolis Drift of bullets (ie, 'discrete objects in free-fall', and not large fluid masses). Using the 2 equations below, I am able to calculate and display the values of Coriolis Drift (in terms of X & Y (vertical and horizontal))...
