Order parameter, correlation function and length

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the confusion regarding the relationship between various physics concepts, particularly Newton's second law and the reasons for gravitational attraction. Newton's second law states that the force acting on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration, which explains why objects fall down due to the force of gravity acting on them. The question of why things fall down instead of up is tied to the fundamental principles of gravity, which is an attractive force that pulls objects toward the Earth. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding established physical principles through experimentation and observation. Overall, grasping these concepts is crucial for a deeper understanding of physics.

Hello people,

I don't understand the relation between those concepts, I tried to read what's written in wikipedia about them but no use.

Can someone please elaborate more about the relation between them in some intuitive manner?

Thank you :)

Come on physicists! show me your powers :)! Please, I really need to understand this :'(.
 
Very well, I have an easier question though, since there is not a single comment!

Here is the question...

What's Newton's second law? and why do things fall down not up?

Think hard guys! it's not that easy :P
 
why don't things fall up? if you will answer on it you will answer on your second question...

You should start to believe in any general physical principles which were established by experimental way (or theoretical if it was proof by experiments or predicted of course)... and if you doubt one's own eyes you should sleep more...Denis
 
Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'

I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...

Thread 'Why is the 3 body problem unsolvable? And what will happen if someone solves it?'

I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
