The present work is investigating an error discovered in the calculations of the Michelson-Morley experiment for calculating the velocity of the Ether, which resulted from wrong perceptions of the reflection of light in the arm of the apparatus and from an error in its calculations. By our calculations, the strange results of this experiment were e...

Context 1
... reflection of light at all cases will follow Snell's reflection law (angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection) [17]. See FIG.3. The action of the reflection happens at light speed, and it does not affected by the motion of the reflection surface [18]. ...
