Could there be a connection between standard kilogram having less weight then its copies, and Pioneer's anomalous acceleration? |
Could there be a connection between standard kilogram having less weight then its copies,
and Pioneer's anomalous acceleration?
For a moment, if the copies of the standard kilogram moved a lot,
and the standard stayed in one place, and the copies are heavier,
it occurred to me Pioneer also moves a lot, and slows down right?
because it is getting heavier perhaps?

You know Pioneer slowed down, or did you not?

You propose the Standard Kilogram artifact got less massive for the
same reason both Pioneers effectively got more massive. You argue
that cm/sec impressed local velocities and 7.6 miles/sec Pioneer 10
velocity are comensurate.
Yours is a terrible muddle wthout physical meaning.
Platinum sorbs hydrogen like sponge. One could propose traces of bulk
sorbed hydrogen progressively migrate to the surface, are oxidized to
water, and desorb over the decades. The reaction is reversible. Now
weight loss depends on relative humidity over and metal casting
conditions during fabrication.
The anomalous sunward acceleration of Pioneers 10 and 11 is easily
rationalized by Kuiper belt dust. Impact with ~1.4x10^(-19) g/cm^3
would do it. Work the numbers. That would be a tremendously
UNinteresting explanation - more so if true.

Sure. The angels are cleaning the Pioneer, and are removing a little
bit of mass. No wait, acceleration is not due to body mass, but due
to *system* mass. No wait, the acceleration acts like mass is being
added, not removed, inside the position of the Pioneer.
So, no.

Probably no correlation.

So what you are saying is that moving the Pioneer, adds 1 part in 10^8
*to the Sun, Jupiter, etc.*? You understand that it appears as
"little g" is increasing, which means all the mass inside a circular
orbit whereever Pioneer is crossing is greater. Changing the mass of
Pioneer won't do it.
So, no.

Sorry, I absolutely cannot follow you here, this is the way I see it:
Say you launch a mass A into space, it sets out on a trajectory B that
takes it eventually out of the solar systm, and the speed
the thing distances itself from earth is S1.
Now it seems to me, that if my some mysterious process A's mass increased
after launch, it's orbit would take it away from the earth with less speed.
If this was not so, then you could launch a 100 kg spacecraft with the same
rocket as a 1000 kg one.
Although Pioneer did some gravity assist flyby, the same basic idea applies.
What is wrong with this reasoning?

The overwhelmingly larger mass of the Sun and planets
means that the probe's acceleration is virtually independent
of its mass. Remember how different masses fall at the
same rate when you drop them?

I follow your reasoning this far. The mass of the Pioneers is not
increasing. It did not take longer or unexpectedly large thrusts to
adjust their positions. Additionally, if we are positing "mystery
mass increase" why not "mystery momentum increase" too? Also,
accumulations of mass as impactors has been discounted from similar
reasons.
If this was not so, then you could launch a
100 kg spacecraft with the same rocket as a
1000 kg one.
Different circumstances. You assume the source of momentum derives
from the Universe, rather than from the mass (whatever that is). Not
a bad assumption, but you left it unstated.
Although Pioneer did some gravity assist flyby, the
same basic idea applies. What is wrong with this
reasoning?
I did not figure out you were keeping the initial momentum the same.
Now keep in mind that:
- Pioneer was slowing down, so the effect should be decreasing. It
didn't.
- The Pioneer effect (really for four different satellites / probes)
was "sudden onset". Which belies a simple motion-related effect.
- The platinum standard is being cleaned, which removes metal oxides
from its surface. This removes metal.

Yes, sure a lot of thought for food.
I mentioned the oxydation possiblility in an other post, but would not
the copies be cleaned too?
Maybe the standard more often, perhaps anytime they compare it with a copy?

I suspect the copies are handled more. More handling means more
chances to absorb hydrogen from both water and "people grease".
Metrology is a real interesting *art*.
Maybe the standard more often, perhaps
anytime they compare it with a copy?
When I worked as a machining inspector, I polished my standards
everytime I referenced them.

because it is getting heavier perhaps?
But why would a body that moved around be heavier than an identical
body that didn't? Relativity says that mass is an invariant.
And as far as Pioneer goes, it's still not known what the answer is or
even if there is a real problem.

Yes, that is the big question, 'why'.
I was sort of joking about time-deletion in sci.physics related to this:
If one mass accelerated and then de-accelerated, it would arrive back at the
origin YOUNGER then a similar one that stayed behind as reference.
If any universal parameter changed (over time), it would have changed less for the
moving mass.
;-)
I am not saying it is so, but relativity says that!
