I am talking about factory sized chimneys indeed, and I am wondering how BOTH solid concrete chimney and brick chimney would act when they fall. When the base of the chimney hops into the air during free fall I am thinking that wind resistance and gravitational accelration causing large internal...
When a tall chimney falls, it usually breaks in two at some point along its length. Why doesn’t it fall in one piece? Where will the break occur? Will the chimney bend towards or away from the ground after the break? If the chimney does not break, something even stranger may occur: the base of...
I was required to blow up two identical balloons, one more than the other. Then I joined the two balloons via a short length of tubing and watched as the smaller balloon began to shrink at the expense of the larger balloon expanding. I was thinking that this had something to do with Newtons...
Can photons really be teleported? and how so, what is the procedure that allows them to go from point a to point b, what materials are used, could someone give an example and provide a link with pictures?

the intervals between those great minds on the timescale remind me that history at often times repeats itself and produces geniuses who will spark a new renaissance/or revolution in physics that being the subject

I myself have not looked into the neutrino project that well so I cannot express my concern for that experiment, but I can say that according to the article the physicists are not claiming that the neutrino particles are traveling faster than the speed of light, their data only shows...
In my opinion we have mastered classical physics and are now just beginning to learn the basics of quantum mechanics and relativity and their applications, I think we will continue to progress in learning the mechanisms of QM and relativity, for example just last week they sent a neutrino at a...
If the atom is composed of a nucleus with positively charged subatomic particles, and the electrons are in the outer orbitals which are defined as in an electron cloud, why doe they not attract and the atom does not collapse on itself due to electrostatic forces of attraction. Also is there a...
