cr47t Posted November 28, 2015 Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 Ok, so this week is the 100th anniversary of the release of Albert Einstein`s General Theory of Relativity. (i think)This is pretty neat. Discuss the General Theory of Relativity, what you know about it, and how the world has come with it and used it in the field of science since it`s release.Don`t get too far into it though. If you don`t know what this is, dont post or read until you get a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerion Brightflame Posted November 28, 2015 Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 Relativity isn't actually that hard to understand from our perspective, because there's a lot of real life examples that give it understandable context. A lot of the other stuff Einstien did/said s very interesting. Like he never got a noble prize on this stuff, and he refused to belive in wave particle duality until the end of his days. It's kinda interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kinda interesting. Thought he disliked the uncertainty of Quantum Physics. The funny thing is the only thing that could completlely eliminate that uncertainty would be Type B Tachyons, which he didn't really believe in either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact we can only know a particles momentum, or it's position, but never both just irritated him, and he refused to believe. It's also funny to think that we learn calculus at an age ealier than Newton actually came up with the idea. (I think it was newton that came up with it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I think it was newton that came up with it) It's not actually, you can bypass the Uncertainty if you have two distinguishable portions of momentum. Some Tachyons COULD have complex momentum which would allow you to exactly pin point both location and momentum. Anyway, the Canadians have already found a way to reduce the uncertainty http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/03/130303154958.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cr47t Posted November 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 Bump even though the week is over possibly :/ im not an expert on this. (sorry)Just in case anyone else might have something to say about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
