What? Where did you get this from? Lorentz
transformations are a replacement of Galilean
transformations, which are not valid in the special
theory due to c.
It is good to first learn the Einstein method.
You will need it as practice. But don't take it
to the universal bank and expect to get credit.
That would be like a Catholic attempting to tell
Hindu's that their brand of religion is wrong.
Neither currency is accepted or exchanged by the

<rubs hands> This just gets better - I do enjoy a
mixed metaphor.
Once you get to the point where you understand
that gravity affects (curves) light, you have to
ask yourself how does the transverse effect
translate into the incident effect. Iow, if
light curves in gravity, how is the curve
manifested if it is coming directly at you in
gravity?
What do you mean "coming directly at you in
gravity" That light is attracted by a force acting
at an infinite distance directly below your feet?
How many dimensions are we talking here? If it's
Minkowski it will be a straight line (no curve).
There is no theory that addresses this in any
adequate physical and logical fashion. But if
all you want is a mathematical description, it is
there.
Addresses what exactly? A theory for why light is
affected by gravity, or a theory for "coming
directly at you in gravity" ?
Additionally, Q-theories attempt to explain the
normal and adiabatic behaviors that separates it
from complete chaos in the micro-world.
Cosmological theories are necessary to explain
the mega-structure.
None of the above theories are scalable, up or
down, to achieve a satisfactory understanding of
the universe and the laws by which it operates.
We have not quite found such a theory, yet. You
will eventually determine this for yourself.
"[...] complete chaos in the micro-world" is
subjective anthropomorphism.
And then as you will eventually attempt to make a
theory that encompasses all observations and
their objective progenitor causes (relating the
subjective to the objective), you will have spent
30 or 40 yrs. of effort only to find that hardly
anyone can follow your perfect logic.
Welcome to physics and the relative observation
of it all.
Well, thanks for that "objective" opinion - it
cheered me up no end!
You first thought you had to do with a moron, and you
would have liked to make fun of him, but as you read
on, you suddenly noticed that this guy was out of your
ligue...
You only exposed yourself as a sociopath...
