nice

2019-08-28 21:56:49 UTC  

What do you think they prove

2019-08-28 21:57:09 UTC  

Have you ever used one?

2019-08-28 21:57:15 UTC  

Well they prove that mass attracts mass

2019-08-28 21:57:33 UTC  

And they measure that attraction

2019-08-28 21:57:56 UTC  

with a super duper sensitive spring device

2019-08-28 21:58:12 UTC  

They buried 5 tons of lead in the ground, then they used this super sensitive spring device called a gravimeter and moved it slowly horizontally over it. When more mass is under it, the spring compresses more. I'd show a graph, but I don't have image permissions, so here's a link to the tests they did. http://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/bitstream/JRC110440/jrc110440_technical_note_preparatory_tests_2016-17.pdf

I have never used one

Have you heard of the Allias Effect

2019-08-28 21:58:48 UTC  

No

2019-08-28 21:59:03 UTC  

Abstract
Conventional explanations for observations of anomalous behaviour of mechanical
systems during solar eclipses are critically reviewed. These observations include the work
of Allais with paraconical pendula, those of Saxl and Allen with a torsion pendulum and
measurements with gravimeters. Attempts of replications of these experiments and recent
gravimeter results are discussed and unpublished data by Latham and by Saxl et al. is
presented. Some of the data are summarized and re-analyzed. Especially, attention is paid
to observations of tilt of the vertical, which seems to play an important role in this matter
and recommendations for future research are given. It is concluded that all the proposed
conventional explanations either qualitatively or quantitatively fail to explain the
observations.

Thanks for the info

2019-08-28 21:59:48 UTC  

Haven't they failed to recreate this effect so far?

2019-08-28 21:59:53 UTC  

Yeah np. Ty also

2019-08-28 22:00:03 UTC  

@IG have they?

2019-08-28 22:00:20 UTC  

I haven't read about in a long time

2019-08-28 22:00:24 UTC  

I know people plan every eclipse to try and recreate it, I just haven't heard of someone being successful.

2019-08-28 22:00:33 UTC  

The veracity of the Allais effect remains controversial among the scientific community, as its testing has frequently met with inconsistent or ambiguous results over more than five decades of observation.

2019-08-28 22:00:54 UTC  

@Citizen Z you do realize atomic clocks existed before einstein right

2019-08-28 22:00:57 UTC  

But I'll read more

2019-08-28 22:01:04 UTC  

It's still interesting

@Shadow✓ they dont prove anything

2019-08-28 22:02:05 UTC  

still no answer to my question

2019-08-28 22:02:06 UTC  

whatever

2019-08-28 22:03:01 UTC  

@Citizen Z is that your best response

2019-08-28 22:03:15 UTC  

The paper you sent seemed to assume that all atomic clocks rely on the speed of light

2019-08-28 22:03:51 UTC  

I can easily show this paper doesn't negate anything considering we have atomic clocks earlier than einstein's theory was even developed and they worked without assumptions of lightspeed

2019-08-28 22:04:00 UTC  

I'm not even going to bother with reading the actual paper

2019-08-28 22:04:45 UTC  

Besides, they do prove that atomic clocks at higher altitudes (farther away from earths core in the globe model) tick at a different rate than those closer. In accordance with general relativity and with gravity.

2019-08-28 22:04:53 UTC  

Not to mention, that's only a single proof of GR.

2019-08-28 22:05:29 UTC  

I can name many, many more, and besides even if general relativity was proven incorrect it's not like density is plausible as an alternative.

2019-08-28 22:06:48 UTC  

Density/buoyancy as replacement for gravity is *easily* disproven.

2019-08-28 22:06:58 UTC  

A little common sense goes a long way

2019-08-28 22:07:50 UTC  

nice like/dislike ratio

2019-08-28 22:08:31 UTC  

A video could have a million likes. Doesnt mean its true

2019-08-28 22:09:14 UTC  

I have a good example of trickery in videos but many didnt see it.

2019-08-28 22:09:19 UTC  

ok

2019-08-28 22:09:24 UTC  

Let me find
