NE I don't think this is talking down to the student, John, as I made clear. Would you think of this as an emotional smack-down if it happened to you, or would you consider it a fair reality-check? Or do you not like reality checks? Do you find reality checks to be nothing but negativism?

If this is what you learned physics from in your architectural studies, then I have absolutely no doubt that you and your firm are on thin legal ground. PD

Exactly. For what it's worth, momentum's *definition* is not mv, either. Electromagnetic fields have momentum, but this expression certainly does not work for them. The formula works for a certain class of matter-based objects traveling at low speed, and that's it. PD

Looks like we have another item to add to the list of things you can not explain. Explain how what you choose to believe occurs physically in nature. If you can't explain it then its dogma: - The future determines the past - Virtual particles exist out of nothing - Conservation of momentum does not apply to a downgraded photon pair - A C-60 molecule can enter, travel through, and exit multiple slits simultaneously without requiring energy, releasing energy, or having a change in momentum. - Matter causes physical space to be 'unflat' but not move - Michelson's "aether displacement to the electric current" is different than Maxwell's displacement current - Mass is not conserved. - An electromagnetic field to have momentum. The following are the most correct physical explanations to date: - A C-60 molecule enters and exits a single slit while the associate aether displacement wave enters and exits available slits - The aether displaced by the matter which are the plates extends past the other plate. The pressure exerted by the aether displaced by the plates forces the plates together - Conservation of momentum does apply to a downgraded photon pair. When a photon is detected its wave collapses which determines its spin. In order for the original photons momentum to be conserved, the downgraded photon pair have opposite angular momentums. - A C-60 molecule enters and exits a single slit while the associate aether displacement wave enters and exits available slits - Physical space is displaced by matter. Aether is displaced by matter. - Michelson's "aether displacement to the electric current" is the analogous to Maxwell's displacement current. - Matter and aether are different states of the same material. In E=mc^2, Energy is matter transitioning to aether. Mass is conserved. - An electromagnetic field has momentum due to the connections between the matter and the aether. An electromagnetic field is caused by a change in the aether's state of displacement. This is what Maxwell referred to as a displacement current. While a C-60 molecule is in the slit(s) detectors are placed at the exits to the slits. The C-60 molecule is detected exiting a single slit. While a C-60 molecule is in the slit(s) detectors are placed and removed from the exits to the slits. The C-60 molecule creates an interference pattern. Explain how this is possible. In Aether Displacement, the C-60 molecule has an associated aether displacement wave and the C-60 molecule ALWAYS enters and exits a single slit in a double slit experiment. It is the displacement wave in the aether which enters and exits multiples slits. The displacement wave creates interference upon exiting the slits which alters the direction the C-60 molecule travels. Detectors at the exits to the slits causes decoherence of the associated aether wave (i.e. turns the wave into chop) and there is no interference. |
