Length Expansion: A Prerequisite for Understanding the Principle of the Constancy of the Speed of Light and Various Relativistic Paradoxes

Authors: KyeongDo Kwak

The second principle of relativity, stating that the speed of light is constant re-gardless of the source’s velocity, remains incompletely understood.Moreover, thespeed of light is incompatible with length contraction.Beyond this, relativity stillcontains many thought experiments that are difficult to comprehend. These includeBell’s spaceship paradox, the muon paradox, the Supplee submarine paradox, andthe Ehrenfest paradox. The commonality among these problems is that logical con-tradictions arise during the application of length contraction. Since these problemsstem from length contraction, approaching them with length expansion logically re-solves all issues. This article examines whether length expansion resolves this seriesof problems.
