Spinning Donuts Theory

Recommended Posts

:P I wonder if this one interests anyone:

 

When an object moves at a high speed, it contracts in the direction of motion right? Well, what if the object is actually a donut, spinning at a high velocity. How can each segment of the donut contract? Does this mean the donut would shrink, ie. radius reduces to zero.
