Like.
No, they aren't correct with respect to the vertical component. To see this, consider the spot exactly in the center of a charged... -
weirdoguy reacted to DaveC426913's post in the thread High School Is there anything in the Universe that is not fundamentally made up of matter? with
Like.
Which is why we use math. Math is not ambiguous. And why we don't concern ourselves with the semantics of words. Words are ambiguous... -

Sad.
It is not surprising how often people end up disagreeing, bickering, and even fighting over things like different interpretations, in... -

As long as there is a realisation that your theories are not completely correct, then all is well and good. Words are used in... -
weirdoguy reacted to pervect's post in the thread Undergrad How many sorts of time are there in physics? with
Like.
Some recent threads inspired me to want to make a list of the different notions of time we need in physics (As I write this, I am... -

Like.
The book is pointless. The author yanked random bits from differential geometry, linear algebra, calculus, and physics. It’s the best... -
weirdoguy replied to the thread Can Dogs Talk Using Buttons?.Oh I hate most dog owners. Especially those whose dogs run around without leash and approach my dog. My dog also always walks without... -
weirdoguy reacted to Nugatory's post in the thread High School Rotating disc: tidal relativity across surface of disc with
Like.
The term “fabric” is used as a metaphor in unserious descriptions of relativity to avoid the math required for a real explanation of the... -

Wow. I am amazed by the response. ``` I will hazard what I think you may see as a paradox: Those two scenarios, when put tegether... -

Is it based on general relativity? If yes, then it most likely it has been studied before. If not, then it is most likely inconsitent...
