AI Thread Summary
Energy is defined as the capacity to perform work or apply force over a distance, rather than being a standalone physical entity. The discussion revolves around the concept of energy in its "pure state" and its ability to transform between forms, such as kinetic and thermal energy. Critics argue that the inquiry lacks a solid foundation in physics, while others emphasize the importance of exploring different perspectives on energy. The conversation highlights the challenges faced by students in grasping complex scientific concepts and the need for constructive dialogue. Ultimately, understanding energy requires recognizing its relationship with the systems that contain it.

What is energy actualy in a pure state and why can it change form (kinetic to heat. Ect) if its not particles.

What do you mean by "pure state"??Does it have to do with statistical ensembles??

ignore whatzzupboy...here is what he send to me in the private mailbox


I am only a freshman and as I have already stadted in my alpollogy thread it was a physics project, we were told to make a theory and show full effects of it and how it would be proven, that I turned into a physcology project, to show how when somebody who knows nothing of what they are talking about trys to make them sound intellegent, in this case by a theory that if correct changes parts of physics, cause the people around them to act.
Sincerly,
Mathew

FYI: My physcology teacher say it looks like I;m going to make an A on. So thank you truly and fully.

Why are you posting all these silly threads?
Why don't you make an effort of learning physics&math, rather than slide into crackpottery?
 
Alright look
1) I'm not a crack pot I to school to hear that not ONLINE
2) It was A simple question so get off my case
3) Why is it that the WE, as human civ., are so stubbor to look at things from a different persective when offten time it is tere that the right answer is found, which by the way is what I am doing looking at te world through a dif. perspective.

Now, if you please can you pease just answer my question and stop crittisizing me, or is itthat you have nothing better to do then to critize a 15 year old freshman boy!

This is not a bad question, actually. Energy is defined as the measure of a thing's ability to apply a force over a distance. It is not a physical quantity in itself. It does not exist separately and apart from the 'thing' that contains energy.

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
Thread 'Struggling to make relation between elastic force and height'
Hello guys this is what I tried so far. I used the UTS to calculate the force it needs when the rope tears. My idea was to make a relationship/ function that would give me the force depending on height. Yeah i couldnt find a way to solve it. I also thought about how I could use hooks law (how it was given to me in my script) with the thought of instead of having two part of a rope id have one singular rope from the middle to the top where I could find the difference in height. But the...
