Sanev liked post by tk421 On thread : Question about surface gravity
You wouldn't expect to learn calculus in a forum post, right? Well, you shouldn't expect to master GR that way, either.
Get a copy of Misner, Thorne and Wheeler. It's over a thousand pages long....

Strange liked post by tk421 On thread : What is dark matter make of?
For the sake of argument, let's pretend that the numbers support your hypothesis to the claimed error of 1.1%. How does this lead to support of pi as the answer? Why not 22/7, or Finnegan's constant?...

AndrewC liked post by tk421 On thread : Mobile waves
Perhaps you are referring to reports of weather-modification by radio waves. If so, there certainly is a lot of, er, noise on the internet about such a possibility (often with reference to Tesla),...

Strange liked post by tk421 On thread : eodnhoj7's word salads thread
On this, we have our first big disagreement, but I appreciate the generous thought.

Anurag liked post by tk421 On thread : How large objects curve space time
It's not weight, it's mass (actually, mass-energy) that is relevant. The amount of curvature is proportional to mass-energy, so all masses -- even tiny ones -- will curve spacetime. It's just that we...

AndrewC liked post by tk421 On thread : Threads and comments are being deleted or "trashcanned" by Strange.
And the salad-man continues his drivel-fest with his latest incoherencies on the nature of "1" and symmetries and invisible green sheep dreaming furiously marmite. JohnDoe--Please, please start your...

AndrewC liked post by tk421 On thread : eodnhoj7's word salads thread
If matter is the building block of cars, cars are an inherent part of the production of matter.
See how simple it is to find out if your propositions are false? You should try it sometime. Your...

Strange liked post by tk421 On thread : Cosmology and Consciousness
Not much to discuss, I'm afraid. Penrose, brilliant as he is, is expressing a personal opinion based on precious little science. It is almost as simple, and simple-minded, as "We don't understand...

Please stop posting altogether until you learn some physics. Your posts are infinite in length and incoherency. They are not structured in any kind of way that would encourage discussion. Instead,...

Strange liked post by tk421 On thread : Please help me understand relativity
You need to realize that what "makes sense" to you is really what is familiar. Your intuition is built on an experiential base. Since that base does not involve motion at near-light velocities,...

jakemitch44 liked post by tk421 On thread : Perceptual Acceleration?
It has indeed been thoroughly discussed; the notion has a name: Relativity.
If one presumes that the laws of physics are everywhere the same, one is free to choose a reference frame (the one "at...

You are being aggressively lazy, so this will be my last attempt at educating you.

Chrissy52 liked post by tk421 On thread : Helium balloon deflated in hot truck
Rubber (at least, ordinary, natural rubber) has a large-ish positive temperature coefficient of expansion (I just looked it up -- it's about 80ppm/K), and thus expands when heated, just as most...
