I have been doing serious thinking that's why I am getting these questions. I am sure you're not even thinking so deep as I am thinking. It's very basic. I know all the equations. I just want to know the answer of a more basic question.
guys, Let me introduce myself a bit so that you don't assume I am just a sort of stupid trying to make sense of physics just for timepass. i am electrical engineer and i have read the books that you are talking about. But, I haven't seen many books trying to explain the real reason behind the...
Any other views. To make it more clear let me put it this way.
Say there is a charged particle somewhere in space. It's producing some electric field in it's vicinity (are you sure?). We can observe this electric field only by putting in another charged particle. (right? that's the only way)...
Well, I have read general theory of relativity. But I have always seen it in theoretical terms. As a means to explain a force. But, never really thought that this space concept can be so creepy :))
In physics, you never really come to know when you cross the boundary between theoretical and...
I have always wondered about this question. How do 2 paritcles sitting at distance x come to know about each other? I know, you can say that they feel field from each other. But again, how does this field propagate? Remember electromagnetic or gravitational fields don't travel through a medium...
