It all comes down to relatvists claiming that
the clocks are identical so therefore they are
keeping identical time in thier own frames.

Suppose a projectile fired into a bucket of water raises
the temperature 1.0 deg C.

A second projectile raises the temperature
of an identical bucket by 1.2 deg C.

Have you any way of knowing if the second
projectile was:

- hotter, faster or heavier -



than the first, given only the mass of the water and
the temperature increase for each bucket?

Irrelavant really,
Temperature is a physical measurement that is abstracted from the
particle motion and physical frictional forces inside the container.
(or whatever definition you wish to think)
Temperature is not a mathematical measurement alone that is abstracted
by the "supposed to be invariant periodic counting" of an objects motion.
(the ticker)

What if you have a two thermometers that differ in rate changes?
Say one thermometer says the heat increased by 20 degrees
but another one measuring the same stuff that should be changing
at the same rate according to the identical make up
of the thermometers but it measures it to be 21 degrees or even 22 degress?
If you do have such.. Are both the thermometers correct?
Or is one miscalibrated or being influenced by another force?
Or are you going to say the temp rate change caused the temp rate to change.
and call it relative temperature dilation?
Like they pull with the clock changing rate problem?

Or will you look for what physically caused one thermometer to be different
than the other?
I simply am looking for what physically caused the rate change.
Is that wrong?
Or is that part of the physical sciences?
