in other words, if c is the maximum velocity possible, then is there a number that gives the maximum acceleration possible? Would it be something like c divided by the Planck time?

I think I see. thank you.

ln(-1)/i=pi this equation does not use limits or integrals, as you can see, but it does involve imaginary numbers. Does this make it an open expression, or does the fact that it uses i not matter?

note that by limit I mean the calculus operation, as in limf(x) as x->a. I was playing around with numbers earlier today and came up with a limit that gives an exact value for pi. I want to know if others have devised limits that equal to pi, because I am not sure if I am the first because my...

I believe that mass is a measurement of inertia, which is an object's tendency to, as the above person wrote "resist changes in motion."

kinda. What happens is that a real particle transforms into an antiparticle pair, which then annihilates into energy, which then becomes a particle again.

Oh, so its just a not-completely-true simplification of what's actually going on, which is that energy/information is being transferred into the material?

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/06/100627072458.htm According to the above article, light was brought to a complete stop during an experiment. What confuses me is that, if light has no mass, and is then manipulated to have no velocity either (which means there is no frequency and...

I just want to mention I lost track of what you guys were talking about a while ago. Yea, I don't get what you guys are debating anymore.

I'm sorry, but what I meant to ask was that I learned about how momentum and energy are always conserved, but my teacher never mentioned the same thing for force. Was that just an oversight or does it really not exist, and if so, why not?

title says it all

Well, I'm not much older than you, but I'll tell you that what you're trying to do is very ambitious. I suppose you have work for the next few decades cut out for you, good luck, hope you're successful. I'd consider helping you if I actually knew enough about this topic to write a book.

hopefully my post wasn't too vague.

I learned about G (the gravitational constant) a while ago, but ever since then it was bugging me. I did not like how a seemingly random, irrational number whose existence could not be explained existed. Then I started thinking about this: if we arbitrarily changed the definition of a meter to...

There are, however the nearest universities are all sub-par and I had spoken to some representatives. They do not offer courses to high school students in any science at all.
