The units come out correctly for me despite the typo. But you screwed up, Stupid Ken. >>No wonder you are called Stupid Ken. >No.... >c'=c(Lambda_o/Lambda_i) >and thus the incoming speed of light is variable/ No, Stupid Ken. That equation assumes the frequency is the same, when it is not, Stupid Ken. The correct equation is c'=c(Lambda_o/Lambda_i)*(f_o/f_i) but as you (should) know, that simplifies to c'=c(Lambda_o*f_o)/(Lambda_i*f_i) (NOT c'=c(Lambda_o*f_o)(Lambda_i*f_i) as you, Stupid Ken, wrote). Since Lambda_o*f_o=c, and Lambda_i*f_i=c, Stupid Ken, the equation becomes c'=c(c/c) or c'=c, Stupid Ken. In other words, the speed of light is always measured as being c, Stupid Ken. Why do you deliberately remain ignorant of SR, Stupid Ken?
