Matterwave's latest activity
-
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.What do you mean by "highest level"? QFT and GR both form our fundamental understanding of physics. Creation operators are a... -

A creation operator does not represent an actual physical process. (It's not even an observable since it has no eigenstates.) It's a... -

Like.
if thats the case then i think i understand it a bit more than i though. thank you -
Matterwave replied to the thread Why does the movement of electrons create fields?.More precisely, in electrostatics (where my charge distribution doesn't move) the electric field gives rise to a force via... -

its a force like gravity, gravity doesnt need to generate (i think i have good mental model but i am not sure this is confusing im gonna... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Why does the movement of electrons create fields?.Could you clarify your question? Are you asking about why moving charges give rise to magnetic fields while stationary ones do not... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Why does the movement of electrons create fields?.I agree with "not generated". It is good to go away from the idea that fields are created or generated, they just "are". In every day... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Why does the movement of electrons create fields?.I might not phrase things that way, but I also can't tell exactly how you are thinking of things. Maybe you would like to rephrase it? -
Matterwave reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Undergrad Comparing the time of two moving clocks with
Like.
I don't think this is true. You're asking the same question here that you asked in your previous threads (of which there have been more... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Why does the movement of electrons create fields?.It's not that the movement "creates the fields". Fields are not created, they simply are. Just as electrons simply are. An electron at... -

im self studying, i am 16 and learning calculus but still a BIG NOOB with some basics here and there, im doing all this for fun -
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.One issue with this statement is that energy is not an invariant. Different reference frames will give a different accounting of energy. -
Matterwave reacted to Mike_bb's post in the thread Undergrad Comparing the time of two moving clocks with
Skeptical.
If you compare two clocks on the fly, you'll see that both clocks show 100sec. -
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Comparing the time of two moving clocks.There are some excellent answers to your question in the previous thread. If the English --> Russian barrier is blocking you from... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Comparing the time of two moving clocks.I guess so we don't just rehash the exact same explanations as the previous thread, I'll ask some different questions. Do you use AI...
