Find it! (My suggestion: How to identify a "measuring rod", and how to compare separated "measuring rods" with each other? (PSE/q/146693).) | |
| Nov 14, 2014 at 0:54 | comment | added | user4552 | This is related to the Ehrenfest paradox en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehrenfest_paradox , and the paper by Einstein alluded to in the question is "The foundation of the general theory of relativity," A. Einstein, Annalen der Physik 49 (1916) 769. This issue is discussed in section 3 of the paper, and I've reproduced a translation at the end of this book: lightandmatter.com/genrel | |

| Nov 13, 2014 at 22:20 | comment | added | Rok | Yeah, I've seen this one, but unfortunately it didn't dispel my confusion - I was still baffled by Einstein's (and others') claim that space is approximately hyperbolic in the co-rotating frame. | |
| Nov 13, 2014 at 20:33 | comment | added | user12262 | Related, and in some sense even a better question: "Understanding the "$\pi$" of a rotating disk" (PSE/q/121889). | |
