07 acceleratory moving clocks

Effect of contraction of the arms
     About Mechelson-Morley Expetiment, some people point out: that tow arms is perpendicular, the arm along the moving direction should shorten, the other one keep immovability, these result counteract the difference of the light velocity. However, In this experiment, two arms are on a same line and the length are same. If  the length shorten their shortened length is still the same. Therefore, the pinch effect does not influence the result of experments.

The relation between mass and velocity
    Any material is not absolute rigidity, in the other word, it must be stretch. Suppose that the absolute speed exists. according to the relation between mass and velocity, the mass is variable. In the Fig. 7.01, the rotational object will get mass the maximum mass in the position J . The real moving trace of the clock is showed by the real line. Apparently, the arm OJ is longer than the arm OK, which increases the transmission distance. The equivalent effect is that the clock in position J becomes slow. So, it is safe to say that the relation between mass and velocity will make the difference in time apparent rather than counteract the difference of clocks.

Acceleration's effect on the clock
    From the Fig. 7.01, we can find that the curvatures of J and D are different. In other words, the clock has different acceleration in these positions. However, what effect does the acceleration to clock?
    in order to validate this, we have measured the acceleration effect. We move one of clocks to the center of the circle, as a result, there is no acceleration to the center clock, We marked the six sides of the OCXO on the circumference as a, b, c, d, e, f. Make different sides point to the center to do the experiment. The following are the results of the six groups'. In each figure, the revolving bar is still in the first part,  the revolving bar is rotational in the second part, (The acceleration is about 67g ).

     We summed up the effect of acceleration showe in following.
Table 7-1

   From the table 7-1, we can find that the effect of acceleration to the clock is obvious, with the different direction, some times make the clock quicker; on orther times make the clock slower. In the Fig. 7.01, the acceleration in J is larger. If the larger acceleration make the clock quicker, it may counteract the slow effect. But we have found that the acceleration can also make the clock slower, this can make the slow effect more apparent. Because we have expermented the clock in different pose, we can't say that the acceleration concealed the absolute velocity effect.
    So, we can only say the absolute velocity is inexistent.
