Thanks for the welcome CraigD. That formula is correct for a nontranslating circularly rotating system with Euclidean axioms. However, if you assume the system is moving uniformly and apply Galilean relativity to it, you'll find that the orbital period must increase. You can rationalize this by realizing that circular rotation that suddenly begins to translate "to the right" is now undergoing ellipsoidal rotation wherein the "smaller radius" of the ellipse is equal to the previous circle's radius. Also, when you employ Galilean relativity, you'll find that the orbital period increases by exactly the Lorentz factor, assuming Euclidean axioms.

How do the popular Copenhagen and Path Integral interpretations of quantum explain the experiments on light by Grimaldi and later by Newton and Thomas Young? In case you don't know, these were "zero slit" experiments, i.e. we remove the outer frame of the windows and leave only the center post. The post was often a thin wire or hair and was placed in a beam of light. "All possible classical paths" in such a situation are directed outward, away from the post. We can't get a classical path wherein the photon lands directly behind the post.

The orbital period of a particle (or the most dense portion of a wave-packet) that moves with constant angular velocity increases if the particle is in uniform translation. Each cycle of the wavicle sends a signal which we count as a clock tick. Any questions?
