Abstract
We consider an isotropical inertial reference frame (“stationary”) and in it a uniformly rotating circular platform of radiusR. The velocity of light \(\tilde c\) relative to the rim of the platform is calculated and found to have values necessarily different fromc. This \(\tilde c\) remains the same ifR is increased but the peripheral velocity is kept constant. Since by so doing any small piece of the circumference can be considered better and better at rest in a (“moving”) inertial system, the velocity of light relative to this system can be deduced. Noninvariant values are obtained and shown to coincide with the predictions of our recently published “inertial transformations”.
