sidharath Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 values of physical constants like gravitational constant G , permittivity etc depends on dimensions of length, mass , time etc therefore the magnitude of the constant is expected to be not same in the moving and stationary frame So .these are not constants because magnitude changes rewlativily
Sensei Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 values of physical constants like gravitational constant G , permittivity etc depends on dimensions of length, mass , time etc Who said so.. ?

andrewcellini Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 values of physical constants like gravitational constant G , permittivity etc depends on dimensions of length, mass , time etc therefore the magnitude of the constant is expected to be not same in the moving and stationary frame So .these are not constants because magnitude changes rewlativily this is your conjecture. where is your evidence?

Endy0816 Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) Could the observed differences balance out to yield the same value for G? ie. G = ar2/M a↓ r↓ M↑ In their own frame at least they would see the same value. Speed that gravity propagates at is also c, which is a constant for both. Edited September 4, 2014 by Endy0816
