Graduate Gravity: Warping of Space or Force?
Gravity, as defined by Einstienien Theory, is a warping of space. And any mass traveling through space will take the path of least inertial resistance, ie not necessarily a straight line, dependent on that warping of space. So, is gravity a force, or just an expression of warped space, that...- messysmurf

Undergrad Is the IB Physics HL Answer Key Wrong About Electrostatic Attraction?
II and III are definite yes, both are by definition negatively charged with respect to R. I is a maybe, if S is not positively charged relative to R then there will be attraction.- messysmurf

Undergrad Do physics equations work in non-SI units?
Yes, of course it works, this is like asking does mathematics work in another base system, of course it does.- messysmurf

Graduate Can PN Junction Charge Difference Be Utilized to Generate Electrical Energy?
In a PN junction, if the P doped side becomes negatively charged with respect to the N doped side, does this mean that the application of an external metal wire, from the P side to the N side would cause current flow in that wire? Gien that the depletion region can be readily made at least...- messysmurf

Graduate Theories out there that view time as a particle?
Time is a placeholder. Things can have position in time, just as they can have position in space. It is one of the fundamental concepts of this physical reality that things can have locations. By contrast, try to imagine a universe that does not allow things to have positions in either time or...- messysmurf
