Undergrad How Does Mass Influence Spacetime Curvature?
I did not realize that personal speculation is off limits. That is, in part, a specific goal of my series of questions and comments. I will stop now. I did not want to just abandon so am posting this.- bkelly13

Undergrad How Does Mass Influence Spacetime Curvature?
If I were the asteroid I would not feel any change in my trajectory. I could detect it but not feel it. I suspect, not certain, that accelerometers would not detect the accelerations of traveling in the curved line. From my perspective I would be continuing on a straight line. The new...- bkelly13

Undergrad How Does Mass Influence Spacetime Curvature?
I am a bit surprised to the resistance of the concept of a thought experiment. Seems to me that it is a valid concept to imagine doing something something imposible to get to some condition then thinking about the new condition and making comparisions. Consider something like an asteroid...- bkelly13

Undergrad How Does Mass Influence Spacetime Curvature?
I have read widely about spacetime but not deeply. I am not good with high mathematics. I am aware of and comfortable with the concept: “matter tells spacetime how to curve, and curved spacetime tells matter how to move.” But not much deeper. This is a thought experiment. Is there an equation...- bkelly13

Is the Theory of Conservation of Information Faulty?
I am familiar with the prefixes macro and micro. I have used Google and Bing and searched for phrases such as conservation of information, similar to conservation of energy. The broader question of conservation of information is not well defined to a non-physics major. The goal of the...- bkelly13

Is the Theory of Conservation of Information Faulty?
I am searching for a definition of “information” in the concept of physics and the theory that information is conserved. Rather than a general question, here are a couple of specific questions about information. Not limiting, just two possible examples of information. The magnetic state of...- bkelly13
