In the Einstein Elevator, light travels at the same speed as an ordinary test mass.
How much is light deflected by the gravitational field?
The energy increase is then (1/R-1/r)·m·M·G.
The energy of the test mass is m·c² , resulting in e = (1/R-1/r)·M· G/c².
For light, this energy increase is a blueshift; in the opposite direction, it is a redshift.
This blueshift or redshift (=e) is caused by a change in the time scale.
Using the above values, the numerical value is:
e = (1/R -1/r)·M·G/c² = ((r-R)/R·r)·T = 2,1·10-6 or approximately T/R, since r is large and 1/r is small relative to R.
According to the "snow globe theory", this results in a time scale of 1+T/R and a length scale of 1/(1+T/R).
The relative speed of light is then
distance/time = 1/(1+T/R)².
The relative speed of light is c' = c/(1+T/R)² or nearly c' = c·(1-2·T/R) (Schwarzschild radius, tip: Expand with (1-T/R)²).
The formula for deflection, which Einstein also used:
alpha = ∫1/c'(r)·dc'(r)/dx·dy from -∞ to +∞
The integral sums the infinitesimal refractive index changes compared to the current refractive index.
This relative speed of light results in a light deflection of 2·rs/R = 4·M·G/(c²·R), as an angle measure ( 2·T/R) · 360·60·60/phi =1,75'' in
agreement with Einstein's general theory of relativity. Comparison of the calculation.
Einstein discovered the value of blueshift as early as 1911
(history).
The potential 1-T/R only gives half the deflection of light. In 1916, Einstein calculated a usable value using the Schwarzschild potential.
Does light have weight?
Construct two mechanically connected mirrors on top of each other. These mirrors are supposed to reflect light up and down without loss, thus Einstein's light clock at rest.
Therefore, light has no weight; it moves in a suspended state between the plates.
However, the momentum at the bottom must be greater than at the top. After all, the energy of light contributes to the total weight of the system.
If you reduce the distance between the plates by half, the number of momentums doubles.
The contribution to the weight is therefore independent of the distance.
Light travels at the speed of light, and changes in gravity also travel at the speed of light.
Light has no gravity because it evades gravity.
Viewed from a single point, the speed of light is different everywhere.
However, since all speeds, lengths, and time measurements are based on the speed of light,
it has the same numerical value locally everywhere in a vacuum.
The change in the speed of light is not a result of gravity or curvature; rather, gravity is a result of the change in the speed of light,
which is determined by the changes in scale according to the law of relativity: S1 in "snow globe theory".
There is no difference between acceleration and gravity.
