On "The Collected writings" of Mr.Nehru
Posted: Wed May 17, 2006 4:53 am
Hi everyone,
After a read-through on Mr.Nehru's book "The collected writings of KVK Nehru",these were a few of the points which came to my attention:
Dialogue between KVK and DBL- part I
Answer 11[DBL]:There are three diagrams shown,in the first,the photon and gravitation are shown w.r.t Natural reference frame,and in the second,with the conventional reference frame.In the the third,Larson mentions that "..the gravitational motion has now been modified by random motion and now has a magnitude 'y'...".What is the random motion being referred to here?
Question 17[KVK]:Here,the kind of motion where space and time have opposing scalar natures,i.e. outward and inward,are mentioned.I am tracing the development like this:
a) scalar motion s/t
b) two kinds of scalar progression outward and inward.
c) [+s]/[-t] = [-s]/[+t] both are indistinguishable.[shrinking,inward motion]
d) [+s]/[+t] = [-s]/[-t] [outward motion]
Why can't we distinguish between c and d w.r.t. the natural reference system?[see Larson's answer]
Question 19[footnote]If this really is the case i.e. if two particles are moving with v1 and v2,their relative speed becomes [v1+v2]/[1+v1+v2],if we replace the particles with photons,their relative speed become 2/3!!I think there is some error in the development...
"Law of conservation of direction"paper:
In counterspace,rotation is primary.In the paper,it is written that "Because of the discrete unit limitation,a mere change of direction without any magnitude is not possible.Hence a unit of rotation involves half a unit of 1-D space element in each of its component rotations"Why is the association of the unit of space with the birotation instead of the rotation?
"Superconductivity:A time region phenomenon"
It is written "One can therefore conjecture that the circularly polarized photon ought to behave like a fermion" in section 2.3.I feel this needs to be corrected,as the photon continues as a birotation,and the birotation makes the solid angle character of the original rotation disappear,as mentioned in another of Nehru's paper:"Some thoughts on spin".
Section 6.1: About Larson's quote of radiation originating 3-dimensionally and makes contact one dimensionally,how does this make the radiation energy four-dimensional?Shouldn't it make the energy proportional to the cube of the temperature[one dimensional]?
Dialogue with DBL II:
Question 37:
Let Spatial speed = v cm/s
v/c = 1/[n+1]
Isn't 'n' necessarily a natural number here?But the euclidean measurements have real numbers,so how can we have discrete v?
Cheers,
Gopi
