Defining Light Speed

For the fun of it, given Fourier,

Ff[f(x)]=F(f)=f(x).ei2πfxdx

as

f.λ=c

f.x=cλx

If we denote inertia in time as

mt=1c and

nλ=xλ

the number of wavelengths in a distance x.  The expression,

f.x=nλmt

where nλmt is the number of wavelength per unit inertia in the time dimension.

f stretches x into spacetime, fx.  When measured in units of wavelength, λ, the expansion of spacetime is weighted by its inertia in time, mt=1c.

Furthermore, if the time and space dimensions are equivalent, that f.x is a square, then

m2=c.nλ

c=m2nλ

or

nλ=m2c

where m2 is a complete square of a rational number of our choosing.  If we define c to be a complete square too,

c=b2

where b is rational, then

nλ=m2b2

nλ is always rational, provided spacetime, fx stretches uniformly, equally in both f and x directions, that both time and space dimensions are equivalent.

c=299792458 is a complete square of rational number 173145158176600479841015
