    The difference between always and never

    Both "always" and "never" describe time period that does not end. So, they both describe different "ever running" realities. Always is an "ever running" presence and never is an "ever running" absence. So, actually they are not opposites. They are two words that describe the same thing...

    Graduate Space-Time Geometry: Consequences of Minkowski's Relativity

    "Geometry" in general is the picture of physical structure. A physical theory/model is the picture of physical dynamics. In this context, geometry and physical models are related in the same way that snapshot image is related to cinematic flow. Leandros

    Graduate Wave collapse. Fact or fiction?

    So, do you mean that the QM is a clever mathematical trick in order to overcome the lack of knowledge ? Is the missing information from our brain processed by QM's clever mathematical model of probability? Leandros

    Graduate Is the Sagnac effect a valid argument against Relativity?

    You must try to understand the difference bettween "apparent speed" and "actual speed". Leandros

    Graduate Quantum computer solves problem, without running

    A classical algorithm is a road map of decision making process. Following the road map of decision making and arriving at the next node of the road map we found ourselves in a new position that is caused by the path of the previous positions and which will bring us to the next position. By this...

    Undergrad The Significance of C in Einstein's Famous Equation E=MC^2

    The kinetic energy of a moving object is equal to (m*v^2)/2 m= mass v= velocity So, it is not *strange* to relate energy with the square of velocity. Leandros

    OK. Thank you for trying to understand my post. Leandros

    Graduate EPR paradox revisited, again. hehehe

    Well, you wrote in post #8 Are these just preparations of measurement ? No sir, they are not. Alice has to follow Bob's direction AT THE TIME OF ACTUALL MEASUREMENT Alice has to synchronise her measurements with Bob's timing AT THE TIME OF ACTUALL MEASUREMENT Alice has to make...

    High School Physics & Proof: Fact or Theory?

    There are several scientific methodologies and the majority of them follows the path of observation-hypothesis-evaluation-rejection/acceptance and observation again. This cyclic methodology in many cases results in the rejection of hypothesis, but this is an accepted part of the methodology. In...

    High School You have a light bulb in the middle of a room and .

    You would have the same light in the room either with mirrors, or without them, if you are counting the energy of light, but you would have less shadows in the room with the mirrors ! Without the mirrors the objects in the room are lighted with a directional light, thus they cast shadows...

    Graduate EPR paradox revisited, again. hehehe

    The agreements you are making between Alice and Bob ARE NOT about the preparation of the experiments. They are about performing the experiments. The agreements are not just careful plans, they affect each experiment's observations as it happens and they preordain the behavior of each observer...

    Graduate EPR paradox revisited, again. hehehe

    You say first that they agree before hand that they will always measure in the same direction...they synchronise their measurements...they also agree that Alice will ALWAYS be the first one to make the measurement... And yet you say then that the results are affected before any signal would...

    Graduate Concerns about ontological interpetations of Theory of Relativity

    I think that I have to clarify that from my point of view "the plane of simultaneity for any given observer describes the map of the actual state of the real world around the observer at that moment". I do not know if this just a difference of semantics for your point of you, but I think it...

    High School If C cannot be achieved, then how can light achieve C?

    Actually when light pierce matter (glass, or water for example) you can not describe the phenomenon in the same way that light pierce darkness in void space. Light/photons exist and travel only in vaccum. Then, the speed of light is 'c'. When light enters space with matter and then exits...
