Because of length contraction, in the straight side the moving electrons will appear closer together than they would be if there were no current. This gives a greater charge density, so the straight side should have a negative charge. But this is not observed. How come? That's nothing. If you have a spaceship that is travelling faster than the electricity in its circuitry how can they work?
swansont Posted March 8 Posted March 8 ! Moderator Note Not sure if you’re being obtuse or a smart-aleck or are clueless about relativity. If you seriously don’t know how electronic circuits can work in a fast-moving rocket, start a thread to ask. Don’t hijack someone else’s discussion.
