Okay I am a high school school student trying to learn the components of relativity, but i can't find anything that really explains any of it with examples and actual numbers. Does anyone know of a good place to learn this? I just feel stuck with high school education in the field of physics.
Okay if this is true then where does potential energy end and begin? It stands to reason that we also have the potential to be pulled toward any object in the universe. Would that not mean we have an infinite amount of potential energy? Please forgive my lack of familiarity with this concept.
Wow thank you so much for that, i had not put together to relation between potential energy and kinetic energy in the system. That answers my question perfectly and nullifies some pages of math work :( oh well, thanks a bunch!
I read an article about super massive black holes that are millions a billion times larger than our sun. In reading this article i began thinking about gravitational acceleration and what the effects would be on incoming objects. I ran through a bunch of equations and found that the mass gain...
