Hmmmmm

I thought red has a smaller wavelength than blue and therefore red has more energy than blue. So why is it that hotter flames glow with a blue color?

this might be kind of a weird question lol but according to forums on tortoises and other reptiles, ceramic heat emitters (a piece of ceramic heated to about 200 degrees id say) actually emit a UV radiation... is this true? where does the radiation come from? is it black body radiation...

from what i understand they pop into and out of existence because + 1 - 1 = 0 and because quantum mechanics... and that's the same reason we have matter in the first place, right? because we had anti matter and matter (from virtual particles, right?) in the beginning of the observable...

what if there's a way to measure speed and direction at the same time and we haven't found it out yet? does it have to do with information theory?

i understand that a black hole occurs because the atoms are not strong enough to hold back gravity after a certain point. is the matter continually collapsing on itself or does it stop after the atoms have been crushed? like is it a runaway effect? my next question is why does a large mass in...

thx i get it now ur description was very helpful

From what I understand, the observable universe began as homogeneous and very hot. if the universe was very hot, doesn't that mean that particles are vibrating at very fast speeds? after all, isn't heat simply kinetic energy of particles? if this is the case, then how could the universe be...

if photons bounce into each other at a frequent rate, and photons bouncing off of each other may result in large change in direction of motion... then why don't we see "junk" photons? photons that enter our eye not because they bounced off a surface, but instead bounces off of another photon?

an air wave takes place in volumes of air, water takes place in volumes of water... but u can have an electromagnetic wave go through empty space using only one particle. how does this work? this to me does not seem analogous to the waves that i am used to. does this "wave" instead refer to the...

or is it all random? thanks :approve:

well, I am no mathematician, but isn't side length 0.0000000000000000000000...1? everyone is saying 0 so i guess not :(. this is a good point i think it is in similar lines to the fact it seems like a circle must have 180 degree vertices if you consider it to have infinite points... right...

it works if straight lines are infinitely small but nonzero :0 from what i figure like 0.00000000000000infinity1

thanks for the reply. as a definition for polygon is a shape with multiple sides. is there a particular reason the definition is so specific as to say finite sides? I am quite interested a circles definition is: the set of points equidistant to a single point. this is an infinite set of...

well yeah if you stop at any integer youre just going to end up with a very round polygon... you need to go on forever (infinity) to be it seems straightforward that if you imagine what would happen if a polygon had infinite sides itd be perfectly curved no matter how close u zoomed in while a...
