Ah thank you for editing that. I figured that was the source of confusion, but I didn't want to point it out and sound arrogant and all, especially since I'm new. Thanks though, I finally have a definitive answer.
Well, I've looked through what lectures of Hawking that I could find, and I can't seem to find it. Perhaps I read it incorrectly. I swear what I read was along the lines of "due to the Uncertainty Principle, some particles can appear outside of a black hole, and thus travel faster than light...
I don't know for sure, but doesn't Hawking radiation defy the speed of light? Since the Uncertainty Principle in quantum mechanics allows for some particles to just appear outside of a black hole, causing its evaporation. Is this true, or are my sources false? (My sources were a transcript of...
I understand you could not make a light clock move at light speed, it was hypothetical. So does that just mean that even hypothetically, its foolish to consider things moving at light speed?
Hello everyone, I'm new here: I just wanted to ask one question that was bothering me. You see, I've just started reading about modern physics; for example, quantum physics and general relativity - and their possible unification through superstring theory (yes, I'm reading "The Elegant...
