    Is Lifting Lower Weights Necessary to Keep Shape?

    Going down in weight would increase your cardio workout(heart) because you are doing more reps as long as you work the muscles to fatigue. You could still see gains in size this way,your workout would just take longer. If you just want to mantain do less sets or don't workout as often.

    B A thought Experiment in Time Dilation

    Hey just trying to learn something and maybe have an interesting conversation,buddy. Apparently no matter how many times I ask you will reply.

    Even if time on the edge of the disc nearly stops? I would think that would have some physical consequence on the rest of the disc.

    I guess I'm thinking more of going back in time, more like a time machine.

    Assuming the material is strong enough to withstand the stresses from the high RPM. Would it fracture due to time dilation? Also I'm not familiar with Bell's Spaceship Paradox I'll have to look that up.

    Yes I get it but there would have to be some other effects on the rest of the disc then.

    We are not physically connected.The disc started out in the same time frame but now part of it is ageing more slowly than the rest of it.

    Yes I know and elementary particles live longer when traveling at relativistic speeds. What are clocks actually measuring though? Time or our idea of time?

    Because it is slipping out of the present as we watch it.Time is continuing at a "normal" unaccelerated pace for us and the center of the disc.

    Not exactly going back but slowing down compared to the rest of the disc.

    Do you have a website or link to this experiment?

    I want to know would you see the edge start to disappear as it slips back in time,in effect,seeing Time Dilation right before your eyes. I think that would be pretty cool no?

    Ok so here's my idea,it came to me while watching a record album spin on my turntable(I believe it was Dark Side of the Moon). Technically this exp. could be done now but the results would take a while. You take a disc of some super strong material attach it to a ultra high RPM motor and put...

    No absolutely not. He got mad at me because he couldn't answer the question himself.:smile:

    Unanswered Science Questions: A Lifelong Pursuit

    Just wanted to say hi from south Chicago burbs. I've had a love of science all my life. One big question I've had for the last 30 yrs which no one can seem to answer.In fact I once got a scientist at Fermilab mad at me for asking him.I'll be asking the question in another thread soon.
