yes a proton can "orbit"
gravity doesn't only affect mass, it literally curves space.
it's been proven that light (massless particles) are bent when they travel near a massive object (like the sun).
extrapolating that, a thought experiement can help you think about the edge of a...
"In general, heat in the form of radiation is infrared waves"
yea that's what everybody tells me, but i'd like alittle better explanation insated of 'this is the way it is, go figure'

thanks for any replys so far tho. =]
I know there is an equation somewhere that tells the wavelength of light given off by an object at a certain heat. So does this work backwards as well? do you get maximum heating of an object if you heat it with that wavelength light? if so, then you could vary the wavelength as the heat in the...
