@TimSweeneyEpic Assuming I parsed the question right: Red shift. (IIRC)

@TobiasBerghoff@Reedbeta Ah, energy loss of the radiation field via redshift, thanks! P.S. Another reactionless thruster design thwarted. - 8 more replies

@TimSweeneyEpic radiation red shifts maybe? -
@won3d@TimSweeneyEpic Some red shift during reflection is possible. A regular flashlight can also be used as a poor thruster.

@TimSweeneyEpic The radiation field loses energy, like a gas expanding and doing work on a piston.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@TimSweeneyEpic Not sure what you're referring to... but absorption maybe? -
@TimSweeneyEpic Oh I see what you mean. P = dE/dt = constant = F * v = ma * v. Accel should scale inversely with velocity @ constant power.

@TimSweeneyEpic first that eq is irrelevant to your q. Second not all radiation is absorbed, some is reflected, some transmitted.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@TimSweeneyEpic also the question is wrong. If it applies constant pressure to a changing vel object, the source must be changing.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
