A teaching tape for ME-02, inertia from the small-speed coefficient
toward low speed
Teaching tape that walks the observer speed toward zero so the proxy can stabilize.
Open ME-02 with these settings
Where it starts
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Observer speed v/c (beta) | 0.6 |
| Emitted energy L (emittedEnergy) | 1 |
What it changes, and what to expect
Set Observer speed v/c (beta) to 0.1 describes the same world from somewhere else
Set Observer speed v/c (beta) to 0.01 describes the same world from somewhere else
Set Observer speed v/c (beta) to 0 describes the same world from somewhere else
Analytic limit at zero speed
At vanishing speed the identified coefficient is L/c^2, an analytic limit.

These are the values the tape's author recorded, not a result this page computed. Nothing here runs the instrument. Open ME-02 with these settings: the link opens it with them already in place. Compare what it gives you with what is recorded here. The settings travel in the link and the laboratory reads them as it loads, so without JavaScript it opens at its worked example instead.
