Every child at school knows, or believes he knows, that this propagation takes place in straight lines with a velocity c = 300,000 km./sec.....The velocity W of the man relative to the embankment is here replaced by the velocity of light relative to the embankment. w is the required velocity of light with respect to the carriage, and we have w = c - v. The velocity of propagation of a ray of light relative to the carriage thus comes out smaller than c. But this result comes into conflict with the principle of relativity set forth in Section V. For, like every other general law of nature, the law of the transmission of light in vacuo must, ACCORDING TO THE PRINCIPLE OF RELATIVITY, be the same for the railway carriage as reference-body as when the rails are the body of reference."
