A rocket with length h accelerates with acceleration g. A light source
at the front end emits light with speed c relative to the source. A
receiver at the back end receives the light and measures its speed c'
to be:

Premise 1: constant, c'=c.

Premise 2: variable, c'=c+v, where v is the relative speed of the
light source (at the moment of emission) and the receiver (at the
moment of reception).

A light source at the top of a tower of height h emits light with
speed c relative to the source. A receiver on the ground receives the
light.

Prediction 1 deduced from Premise 1: The receiver on the ground will
measure the speed of light to be constant, c'=c.

Prediction 2 deduced from Premise 2: The receiver on the ground will
measure the speed of light to be variable, c'=c(1+gh/c^2), an equation
Einstein deduced in 1911. The receiver will also measure the
gravitational redshift factor to be 1+gh/c^2, a value predicted by
Einstein and confirmed experimentally by Pound and Rebka in 1960.
