Graduate Can Our Universe Be in an Infinite Loop?
The multiverse question and the infinite loop question are different questions and they might not be dependent on each other. The Infinite loop universe is a theory in cosmology known as the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_model" . I don't think it's well accepted by physicist- scott1

Undergrad Doubling the kinetic energy of an object does what to momentum?
Yes,According to this equation showing the relation between momentum and kinetic energy: E_k = \frac {p^2}{2m} I tried reversing the equation and I think you should a negative effect on the momentum -

PF Blocked in China: Increasing Censorship Methods
I'm glad P.R.C blocked PF.It's bad for Chinese users but at least P.R.C found the freedom of expression allowed on this site(but with cretin restrictions but still allows for unnecessary flame wars) is a threat to there authoritarian regime's power that they have to block it.- scott1

Undergrad Finding the Exact Time of Alignment of Earth, Sun and Center Sun
That's true but what it is actually is that the supermassive black hole gravity creates an accretion of gases which releases llight energy and creating a blob of plasma around the black hole.- scott1
