If these two statements are logical implications of Maxwell's equations,
a) A magnet that is not moving with respect to the aether will not have an
electric field.
b) A magnet that is moving at a constant velocity with respect to the
aether will have an electric field.
Then consider this thought
The law of Faraday is very clear any change in magnetic flux induces
charge hence a field.
Many untrained physicists write j (current) instead of q what is wrong.
To measure a current you have to cut the ring (rim) of charges what
leads to dragging forces and movement of charge over e.g. a
The question of whether the magnetic field rotates in the faraday disc
generator is a question that is related to aether theories in particular
or any theory of privileged reference frames in general. It got me
wondering if there are alternate ways to test for the presence of an aether
or a
As most might know, in physics we only know force fields. Thus so called
field lines (magnet field) are equipotential cuts of the space covered
by fields. Of course you never can draw such a line as all sources are
in constant motion/rotation.
The static magnetic field is a special case as it
Sorry, the last word should be 'magnet' rather than 'magnetic'.

Another visualization of the behaviour of magnetic fields without the
concept of lines of force.
When the magnet is moved around it simply changes the orientation of all
the little compass needles.
The notion of lines of force tends to make one think the magnetic field is
somehow mechanically
Here is a physical demonstration of the situation using a ferrofluid.

The ferrofluid does not rotate with the cylindrical magnet, which supports
the idea that the magnet's field does not rotate with the magnet.
(There is a little bit of movement but the
It depends what you mean by a field. If you imagine the field is made of
wire-like filaments which are fastened to an atom then you would expect the
field to translate and rotate whenever the atom translates and rotates. On
the other hand if you imagine the field is a vector field then the field
In reply to H L V's message of Tue, 5 Mar 2024 09:28:31 -0500:
Hi,
You don't need an experiment to figure this out. The field obviously rotates
with the magnet.
This is because the field is not a single entity. It is the sum of all the tiny
fields created by the electrons attached
to
Instead of measuring voltages, another approach would be to measure how the
entire assembly moves in response to the various relative rotations. In
order to observe such effects, the entire assembly should be self contained
so that it is free to slide over a level surface. The relative rotation of
