If energy causes to things to "move faster" would'nt the purest form of energy have the highest velocity of all matter, even faster than photons, or are photons the purest form of energy?

But it doesn't always do that. For example, sometimes an energy increase causes things to "be higher" (as in a gravitational field).

would'nt the purest form of energy...

There is no "purest form of energy"...

...have the highest velocity of all matter,

...and energy doesn't have a velocity.
 
thanks for makin me feel retarded :-p

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
