Allen D I missed the part where you calculated/showed how far the green sphere pulled ahead of or fell behind the red sphere from apogee to perigee and the amount the green sphere fell behind or pulled ahead of the red sphere from perigee to apogee.

No sir, that will not work. You've dug yourself in too deeply for that -- you're going to have to dig yourself out. One post earlier From Allen Daves Tue Mar 18 17:58:08 2008 you said 2. I did not claim that "an accelerometer would indicate a change in velocity due to gravity". I have just ploughed through all of your posts on this issue and while there are many references which appear to be saying just that, I was unable to find one which did not break down into incoherence such that were I to quote it to you, your appalling lack of precision in expression would allow you to pretend that you had meant something else. Here is the complete paragraph in which this quote appears -- 2. I did not claim that "an accelerometer would indicate a change in velocity due to gravity" ..I stated as a fact that any change in whatever interial state ( in GTR/STR Gravity and inertia are one and the same) you are in, no matter what you take as your interial "ref frame", that for a fact, in-deed and in application that change will and has and always will be detectable as you said "for ever and ever amen"!.....I have "steped up to the plate" and showed, demonstrated and even cited proof. It is you keep changing ("Making like an eel in a bucket of warm fat") the approach without ever addressing my original post (quantum & laser gyros/accelerometers) or my secondary post to your "mass/spring" diversion. I have already shown you clearly and specificly how and exactly why a accelerometor can and will and in fact does measure any change in the intertial state, in a free fall or not. The only outstanding issues left to be addressed if any are ones of scale not practical/ actual application(s) Note this penultimate sentence - I have already shown you clearly and specificly how and exactly why a accelerometor can and will and in fact does measure any change in the intertial state, in a free fall or not. Now my lack of knowledge in this area gives me pause for thought, but I'll risk it anyway. I tried to find a definition for 'inertial state' but Google for once disappointed me. Perhaps everyone else calls it by a different name. Never mind. Pressing ahead, from context, I deduce that '...change in the inertial state...' means acceleration. If this is so, then I suggest that you are making the statement that you claim that you are not making. But we digress. Returning to my closing statement from Tuesday, March 18, 2008 8:25:47 AM, to wit - Now for the crunch, the bit where our velocity changes due to acceleration by gravity. (Note - from a recent post from Regner, perhaps 'speed' is more appropriate here -- please comment if you think it appropriate. In any event, what I'm trying to convey is that our rate of travel increases). This time, we place our vehicle into elliptical orbit -- around Earth will suffice -- and as we pass apogee, we begin to accelerate. At this moment we place our accelerometer 1 kg mass outside the vehicle with velocities matched and engage our distance and time measuring devices. After we have passed perigee we will have stopped accelerating and begin decelerating. At no time from apogee to perigee will the 1 kg mass have fallen behind or overtaken us and this will not change from perigee back to apogee and so on for ever and ever amen. Despite acceleration and deceleration due to gravity in an elliptical orbit, our accelerometer will indicate no change in velocity. Your direct response was - OK quite simply your wrong ... followed by a ramble about tides, then you purport to show me the error in my closing paragraph thus - You can't use gravity to create "Differential Forces" & effects and then use the same causes for thoese same forces to cause the same forces to be "non-differential" (wrt measurable acceleration) all at the same time...!?..I suppose though that is "the micicle of modern scicence" ... a complete -- but characteristic -- waffle! If for no other reason than that at no time have I invoked differential forces and effects and their causes and effects in order to show differential or non differential measurable or otherwise non effects or real effects that have no bearing on what we are talking about. I will make a further simplification of my final paragraph which must throw your claim into stark relief. Everything as stated remains except, I define the accelerometer mass to be a 1 kg sphere of lead painted green and the vehicle to be a 1 kg sphere of lead painted red and the distance separating them to be 100 m. I specifically remind you that the distance and time measuring devices situated on the red sphere remain in place and active. You're pretty good at maths -- why don't you just provide some calculations which will show the maximum distance that the red sphere will lead or lag the green sphere through the time of one orbit? If you prefer, you could place the vehicle (the red sphere) and the accelerometer reference mass (the green sphere) in Earth's orbit -- at Lagrange point 2 would do -- and just crib on the calculations made by Regner in his post - From Regner Trampedach Tue Jan 22 06:59:55 2008 Re: acceleration calcs.

Does the sun & or moon accelerate the tides or not ?

I'm not going to address your objections point by point -- that is a quagmire that I for one have been bogged down in more than once. I'm going to be charitable and assume that you still do not grasp what I'm saying about accelerometers. An accelerometer is a mass suspended in some manner, such as by a spring, in a vehicle which is to be accelerated. Now if we were to hang this device from a stationary beam in a 1 'g' gravity field, and it has a mass of 1 kg, then the spring will be extended, coming to a halt when the spring exerts an upward force of 1 kg. If the accelerometer is properly calibrated, it will read 1 kg. If you repeat the experiment on the Moon, it will read -- roughly -- 0.166 kg. If we take the accelerometer and mount it in a space vehicle in free fall, it will read 0 kg. If we initiate a rocket burn, and the accelerometer reads -- while the motor is firing -- 1 kg, then we can state that our acceleration is equal to what we would feel standing on the Earth -- an acceleration of one 'g'. Thus the extension of the spring is an exact analogue for the amount of acceleration being experienced. It relies for its operation on Newton's first law of motion and Hooke's law of elasticity. There is another way we could utilise the accelerometer to determine our acceleration in a space vehicle. Let us assume again that we are in space in free fall and we are about to initiate a rocket burn. This time, instead of gluing our eyes to the accelerometer, we detach the 1 kg mass and place it outside the vehicle in free fall with velocities matched. We initiate our rocket burn, and with some radar or laser device we continuously measure the distance to the 1 kg mass. If we integrate the readings over time, we can calculate our acceleration. Now for the crunch, the bit where our velocity changes due to acceleration by gravity. (Note - from a recent post from Regner, perhaps 'speed' is more appropriate here -- please comment if you think it appropriate. In any event, what I'm trying to convey is that our rate of travel increases). This time, we place our vehicle into elliptical orbit -- around Earth will suffice -- and as we pass apogee, we begin to accelerate.
