3000 Å , the expected effect is a fringe shift of about one - tenth of a fringe . The
accuracy of the Michelson - Morley experiment was such that a relative velocity of
106 cm / sec would have been seen ( i . e . , one - third of the above estimate ) .

Thus there exists a triply infinite set of equivalent reference frames moving with
constant velocities in rectilinear paths relative to one another in which all physical
phenomena occur in an identical manner . For brevity these equivalent ...

We now show that the contraction of lengths in the direction of motion is a more
general phenomenon which applies to all relative motion . Consider a rod of
length L , at rest parallel to the z ' axis in the system K ' of the previous section , as
