Would you consider Einsteins theory of relativity, relatively boring?

Question

I mean compared to say Hang Gliding or swimming with hungry Great White sharks.

Answer 1

Wasn't there something written, relatively recently, regarding records being released - revealing Einstein's 'relative' realities? As in, his women friends (that no one really realized he was relating to, or with)?
Is this the 'theory of relative(ity)' that you are referring to?
How that relates to hang gliding or great white sharks, really doesn't register with my realities . . . really sorry, sir. . .

Answer 2

Relatively

Answer 3

Boring

Answer 4

Well first off, you have to be more specific. Do you mean Einstein's theory of Special Relativity or his theory of General Relativity?

In 1905 Einstein wrote a paper "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies" whihc introduced the special theory of relativity. In a nutshell, special relativity considers that observers in inertial reference frames, which are in uniform motion relative to one another, cannot perform any experiment to determine which one of them is "stationary".

This is known as the principle of relativity. While this principle was not new to Albert Einstein's work, he found that including electromagnetism in this principle required a new formalism with many surprising consequences. In particular, it required the speed of light in a vacuum to be the same for all these observers, regardless of their motion or the motion of the source of the light.

One of the strengths of special relativity is that it can be derived from only two premises. First, the laws of physics are the same in any inertial frame of reference. This means that the laws of physics observed by a hypothetical observer traveling with a relativistic particle must be the same as those observed by an observer who is stationary in the laboratory. Second, the speed of light in a vacuum is constant (specifically, 299,792,458 meters per second relative to the observer).

Now, while that is typically enough to keep me giggling with mad pleasure all week long it's Einstein's theory of general relativity truly astounding. General relativity was developed by Einstein in the years 1911 - 1915. General relativity is a geometrical theory which postulates that the presence of matter "curves" spacetime, and this curvature affects the path of free particles (and even the path of light). It uses the mathematics of differential geometry and tensors in order to describe gravitation without the use of the force of gravity. This theory considers all observers to be equivalent, not only those moving with uniform speed.

Curving space-time!!!!
Altered free radicals!!!!
The path of light!!!!

Wooo!!!

Someone throw me a towel cause my head is swimming!

Hang gliding is for wussies!!!

GIVE ME THE THEORY OR RELATIVITY OR GIVE ME DEATH!!!

Besides, when LL Cool J quote's Einstein you know it's the shizznizz!!!

"Einstein's theory of relativity. Grab hold of a hot pan, second can seem like an hour. Put your hands on a hot woman, an hour can seem like a second. It's all relative."

Answer 5

I think it is very relative. But would rather hang glid. All the things are interesting.

Answer 6

Well it does create the possibility of time travel, so not that boring.

Answer 7

Watching paint dry is riveting compared to E=MC^. But I'm not one of them rocket scientists...

Answer 8

No - consider this Everything is Possible, that's not Boring is it.

Answer 9

no, it is very exciting. and makes so many things possible.
to improve our lives. you probably don't understand it well enough to appreciate it. That is why you think it is boring.
What is boring to one person is not boring to another.

Answer 10

Yep..but compared to what the rest of the question is...that's a good thing!!!!
