    Can Electromagnetic Radiation Help Define Absolute Rest in the Universe?

    Hi, I'm looking into electromagnetic radiation at the moment and something has just entered my head. If its true that an electron will not radiate unless its velocity changes with time then could this property be used to determine absolute rest. That is, how can we know that if something is...

    Help:Specific Heat and Electromagnetic radiation

    Please help uncloud my understanding #1.Why does the Earth cool off much more quickly when the weather is clear than cloudy? My foggy understanding: The cloud cover “traps” the heat energy radiated from the Earth because water has a high heat capacity, and so takes a longer time to heat up...
