The Mechanical Behavior of a Multispring System Revealing Absurdity in the Relativistic Force Transformation

Figure 3

(a) The angular position of the spring is shown as on the plate being observed by the lab observer in plane . Because the tangential velocity of the plate’s perimeter is , the velocity of is decomposed to . (b) The angular position of the spring as viewed by the moving observer . The plate is Lorentz contracted due to its relative velocity of . Indeed, asserts that the velocity of the spring has two components of complying with the relativistic velocity addition formula.
