    Confusion with faster than light

    Thanks for all the brilliant replies and understanding of my poor knowledge in the area. I'll get reading up on all of this shortly! I'm starting with this thread: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=231008 seems to be just what I need. Hayley.

    Confusion with faster than light

    You'll have to excuse my need to be spoon-fed here, but could you elaborate on that a little, or provide a link to something that can help me get my head around it, I'm currently going through Quantum entanglement on Wikipedia and forum posts. It seems to be more about information communication...

    Confusion with faster than light

    Just to add a quote to show the point of view from the other side: "If something appears to be traveling faster than light, it is traveling faster than light" This is what I have to deal with Also when saying "nothing can travel faster than c" being told to look at quantum entanglement...

    Confusion with faster than light

    1. Okay, I understand this. 2. So it is not possible to exceed c when measuring the particle in it's own reference frame, correct? 3. The problem is it's not a calculation, it's saying that if an observer sees something exceeding c because the observer is moving that makes it look like the...

    Confusion with faster than light

    Hi, wow thanks for such a quick reply. Well about the relative speeds, the argument is basically saying that as an accelerating observer objects appear to be traveling beyond c, which I can understand to a degree. But from all I've ever read is that nothing can travel faster than c, and the...

    Confusion with faster than light

    Confusion with "faster than light" Okay first off hi, this is my first post on these boards, let me clear a few things up here, I'm a bit of a laywoman when it comes to all of this so please go easy on me. I've been into Physics for a couple of years now as a bit of light reading to keep my...
