For my PSSC Honors Physics Summer Reading I need to read "Six Easy Pieces" by Richard P. Feynman. I need to complete a journal for the book. The journal should describe my impressions of the book, the author, what i learned, what i didn't understand, etc. But for the etc I'm not sure what else I can include in this journal. The journal I know can not look like an outline from a lecture in science class since it would result in a lower grade evaluation. If any one had read the book before or if you have any ideas of what I can include, please help me. I would be very thankful if you can give me ideas. Thank you all. God Bless, and take care.

If an object that have mass is pulled by gravity, it'd accelerate with time. Would someday the object travels faster than light?
Let's just imagine that the object would never reach the center of the gravitation.

As we know, when we travels near lightspeed, mass increases, but gravity's acceleration to an object is not affected by mass isn't it?

Nobody woiuld ask if mm'/d2 or f=ma is a newtonian formula because it obviously is. So, when the same question is asked about 1/2 mv2,there is a possibility that the formula is not newtonian. In fac it was formulated by Leibnitz. Ask "Marquise du Châtelet" through google and you'll have a complete answer. Wouldn't it be right to give additionnal points to somebhaving posed a question followed by a wrong answer rewarded with the maximum of points?

There is no such thing as an irresistible force in that whatever amount of energy it takes to move an object of ANY size equals the amount of resistance of the given force. In other words until that object auctually was moved by said force it resisted it until enough of the force moved it.

On the other side of it an object is only immovable until enough force is available to move it.

With these thoughts in mind what do you think?

Is there no research close to resolving this problem. I recall that the late Professor Eric Laithwaite was working with gyro motion and had demonstrated a prototype. He was the big mover on maglev in the early days.

If the strong nuclear force is carried by virtual fermions, they ought to be limited in range by the uncertainty principle. Can anybody calculate the maximum distance and tell me whether the decrease in strength with distance is abrupt at the end, or follows an inverse-square law, or whether some other kind of trailing off happens?

Is there a transmission spectrum for sound in air, not unlike the transmission spectrum for light? Is there a maximum frequency of sound that will travel through air?
