    The Origin of the Universe: Unraveling the Mystery of the Big Bang

    Ultimately, our notion of cause and effect does not allow us to answer this question about how something can come from nothing. We think, something must have caused the beginning of everything, but what then caused that something? There is an error in our logic.

    Wave-particle duality/double slit experiment

    Oh, great...everything is a wave. That's not particularly easy to wrap your mind around. I mean, since a wave is just a disturbance from an equilibrium...everything would be a disturbance from an equilibrium?

    Wave-particle duality/double slit experiment

    I researched the question but found no straight answer. In response to rewebster, I should have put this in quantum mechanics, but I thought I wasn't technical enough to understand the QM experts...I figured the GM would allow for a more 'funny' answer as you called it. The answer sidharth gave...

    Wave-particle duality/double slit experiment

    Is it true that particles behave like waves when there is no observer but behave like particles when there is an observer? If so, how does the observer impact the behavior of the particles? Do electromagnetic waves play a role? Any insight would be appreciated.

    Why do we need a quantum theory of gravity? What would it do?

    Thanks doug. very helpful post

    Where is contact made during collisions?

    ahh i see, thank you.

    Where is contact made during collisions?

    If two objects collide with each other, where is contact actually made? This question confuses me because even at the atomic level (two atoms colliding) where is contact made? P.s. i hope I'm in the right section of the forum
