The Marcel imbecile. You are the imbecile: http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/SR/light_mass.html What is the meaning of the equation E=mc2? You can interpret it to mean that energy is the same thing as mass except for a conversion factor equal to the square of the speed of light. Then wherever there is mass there is energy and wherever there is energy there is mass. In that case photons have mass, but we call it relativistic mass. http://www.bio.net/bionet/mm/photosyn/1994-September/000439.html Photon Mass? Wei-Zhong He wzh at rio2.Berkeley.EDU Sat Sep 10 23:31:03 EST 1994 Let's start with Einstein's equation: E = mc^2 This implies that anything with energy should have mass, too. For a photon, E=hv, where v is the frequency of light. Therefore, we have m = hv/c^2 To clear a bit of confusion, m is the relativity mass here. > > >I said and demonstrated that GR is not needed to explain > >the P&R result. > > No Marcel, your "prediction" is different from what GR predicts (and > Pound Rebka confirms) > > The GR prediction is that the frequencies at the top and bottom of the > tower will be in the ratio: > > f_top/f_bottom=sqrt((1-2G*M/R*c^2)/(1-2G*M/(R+d)c^2)) > > Now , Marcel, procve that your simplistic formula predicts the same as > the GR correct formula. Since you are an idiotic numerologist this > should be right up your alley and should keep you busy for a while :-) When the difference of gravitational potential between the top and the bottom of the tower is taken into consideration, my formula becomes Shift obtained from a photon mass of h*Nu/c^2 and potential energy for a signal emitted from the summit of a tower of 100 m: Shift = G * Me / c ^ 2 * (1 / Re - 1 / d), where d is the Earth's radius Re + 100 m Shift = 1.090782E-14 The corresponding shift, obtained from the GR formula (week field approximation, and ignoring the Earth's rotation), would be given by Shift = SQR(1 - 2 * G * Me / (c ^ 2 * d)) / SQR(1 - 2 * G * Me / (c ^ 2 * Re)) - 1 Shift = 1.090783E-14 I bring now this fruitless discussion with stupid crackpots to an end.
