    How gravity arises from spacetime curvature?

    I think there is a fundamental fact that was omitted in the rubber sheet analogy. The bowling balls on the sheet warp the sheet because gravity acts upon its weight. For the analogy to hold there must be a 'force' that acts upon masses for it to create curvature->gravity. This force got to be...

    Why Does a Black Object Reflect Light Despite Absorbing All Colours?

    I'm not sure but here's what I think. There are two ways I can think of for the object to reflect some of the light: first, the light that is absorbed by object changes the electronic config. of the molecule's electrons and if at that same moment another wave of light hits the molecule...

    Is the Universe Bound by the Laws of Conservation?

    I am wonderring is there a known solution to the problem that all the light emitted by the stars must come out of the universe (if it is finite). All the energie is then lost and if the universe loses energie, it loses mass hence is bound to disappear someday... *if there will be an end, there...

    Universe as a simple harmonic oscillator

    I'm quite lost in most of your explanation but I just think that if the universe is occillating then we should feel that occillation from within the universe. I don't think such a harmonique "force" is felt or has been mesured.

    How many dimensions really exist?

    Your question is like asking if God exists. Because we can only be sure of the dimensions that we can see(or experiment) in the material Univers. But a dimension does not need to be influencing the world that we know. So it is impossible to know, we can only try to understand as best as we can...

    Can Time and Space has Duality ?

    I think the biggest problem with that is that time travel is very constrained. space has different properties the time like the fact that time is a one way road. For the two to look alike (confusing), the mathematical model of both entities most have several similarities. Then there is the...

    Physics or Imagination: Which Drives Progress in Science and Technology?

    I think imagination makes science and physics is just the generally accepted record of it.

    Is Inertia the Key to Understanding the Nature of Gravity?

    I never said C was a variable, I just raised it as a remark or a question. Anyway, the theory is not related to that 'postulat' at all so it's a totally unrelated but interesting question (Is C a constant? it should be since the theory of relativity is based on it, but in my point of view, the...

    Is Inertia the Key to Understanding the Nature of Gravity?

    I have a theory or more of an idea. I have absolutly no proof of that, but I never came upon something that is inconsistent with it. here it is: Solving the famous E=mc² to c give c=sqrt(E/M) which is not new to anyone. As we know that light is a wave, naturaly a wave move in a transmitter. I...

    How to Calculate Forces for Elastic Collisions with Angular Responses?

    For those interested in this, I resolve the equation correctly and here is the final force expression : F = (2*V/dt - sum(F1)/M1 - sum(F2)/M2)/(1/M1 + 1/M2) where F is the force applied to ob. 1 during dt and V is the initial relative speed of both objects taking ob. 1 as reference. F1 and...

    How to Calculate Forces for Elastic Collisions with Angular Responses?

    Got It! I did solve the problem myself this afternoon by making the most simple assumption that at half the time of impact both velocities at the point of contact should have a null projection on the common normal of impact. hence I got this: 0= Vn(initial) + sum(Fn) * dt / (M * 2) then...

    How to Calculate Forces for Elastic Collisions with Angular Responses?

    My problem may be complicated or simple (I guess complicated). I'm having problem solving a general (or theorical) situation of colision between two objects having both angular and linear velocity. The result I want to obtain is the force that needs to be applied for a time (dt) so that the...
