ABSTRACT: In
earlier papers [1]-[4], it was shown that the consistency of the concept of
time with motion requires time and distance to be of the same dimension, and
thus measured by the same unit. The arising reduced system of units revealed
that mass and energy were only different
facets of one entity, and resulted in the well-known mass-energy equivalence
formula as a natural consequence. The physical space can be identified with any inertial frame, but when it comes to comparing the results of
measurements in two frames, or more, only one frame, say S, can be taken
stationary and identified with the physical space, whereas all other inertial
frames are moving relative to S. The equivalence of
inertial frames as sites of one physical world implies that an intrinsic units
system of length, time, mass and charge should be defined in terms of basic
constituent physical blocks that have the same identity in all inertial frames. A basic feature of the universal
space and time theory (UST) is that the same one time prevails in all inertial
frames. The scaling transformations (STs) that relate the geometric distances
in two frames, S (s) when chosen the
stationary frame, are derived, and applied to explain the Doppler’s
effect. The time distance between a moving object in S and an observer
depends on its state of motion; and the Euclidean form of the STs is employed
to explain arrival of some meta-stable at the earth’s surface despite its short
lifetime. The quantitative predicted Doppler’s effect, which is in a striking
agreement with the Ives-Stilwell experimental results, coincides with the
relativistic prediction for longitudinal motion, but yet predicts a complete
absence of a transverse effect at a right angle. In coming parts of this work it will be shown that the
UST explains elaborately the drag effect, stellar aberration, and produces
naturally the relativistic mechanics. The UST will also be completed through
deriving the scaling transformations of the second type, by which the
null results of Michelson and Morley experiment, Michelson and Gale experiment,
and the Sagnac effect are explained. The
current work and our intended future works in UST are new versions
containing basic conceptions and visions that didn’t appear in earlier versions [1]-[6].
