MMX vs Earths' rotational sagnac

[RJBeery]

You can find here that the circular path and the linear velocity is sufficient to calculate the sagnac. Angular velocity is not necessary.

Just as in the case of the circular loop, if the apparatus is unaccelerated, the two beams will travel equal distances around the loop, and arrive at the detector simultaneously and in phase. However, if the entire device (including source and detector) is rotating, the beam traveling around the loop in the direction of rotation will have farther to go than the beam traveling counter to the direction of rotation, because during the period of travel the mirrors and detector will all move (slightly) toward the counter-rotating beam and away from the co-rotating beam.

Please note, for the 5th and final time, that rotation equals acceleration. The apparatus is unaccelerated == the apparatus is not rotating. At this point I'm giving up; I wish you the best of luck with the pursuit of your MMX/GPS "contradiction", maybe you've uncovered a grand conspiracy?? With such an amazing ability to interpret explanations as they are spoon-fed to you I'm sure you'll go far in the Physics world. Anyway, I'm unsubscribing from this thread...

One thing that is rather obvious is that the word "accelerate" in various forms, appears more than half a dozen times in that link. The word "linear" appears zero times.

How much linear velocity can anything traveling in a loop have?
"Let me know when you have this figured out. "

In that link, v appears in the equation. Let me know when you have figured out v is the linear velocity.

Your acceleration is not used in any sagnac calculations.

Consider GPS. How much acceleration by the earth's rotation applies in the .05 seconds the signal takes to travel to the earth?

The truth is aceleration does not apply.
