The Mechanical Behavior of a Multispring System Revealing Absurdity in the Relativistic Force Transformation

Figure 4

(a) The distribution of the springs looks uniform from the viewpoint of the lab observer . (b) The distribution is no longer uniform as viewed by the moving observer . The density of the springs' distribution, as well as the mass density of the plate, is higher where the tangential velocity of the plate () is greater, and vice versa.
