Abstract

The invariance of the speed of light in RFs in motion proves that the space time is a quantistic entity, because its “density” is determined only if related to an observer. The difference of this density between two observers in relative motion is given by a set of transformation equations obtained by analysing the propagation of a flash of light in a 3D RF. They show that the RFs of the two observers are displaced, one with respect to the other, towards an imaginary direction by a spatial component transverse to the motion, and as a consequence their respective “density" is reduced by a ratio √(1-v^2/c^2 ). Therefore the two observers, watching the same physical phenomenon (for example the displacement of an object from point A to point B), would measure different values for space and time, same value for velocities, but different accelerations and therefore different forces acting on the object.
