摘要
In order that a measurement of one item against another item is significant it must be verified that these items ARE INDEPENDENT of each other. It can readily be shown that the unit of m/s is proportional to the speed of light and hence measurements of the speed of light in units of m/s are basically flawed. Some aspects of the speed of light not being a constant are discussed. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
