have been contemplating the basics, not the mechanics of energy, any thoughts? lowon brain are you out there

Answer 1

Last I checked the Freemasons haven't eliminated me yet - so yes, I'm still here! Though, I'm wondering why do I always get the most difficult questions – is this a conspiracy? LOL

In any event, since Y!A isn't exactly the appropriate forum for a detailed technical discussion/exposé on such open-ended complex issues (including the more controversial aspects of the subject such as non-physical energies, the eternal life force, magical anomalies, hypothetical particles such as Tachyons, etc.), I'll just give you a little food for thought to spice up your philosophical contemplation plate.

Perhaps a good place to start with would be an Einstein-like gedunken (i.e. thought) experiment, exploring the concepts of Mass, Energy and Space-Time. Start with the following two axioms/basic assumptions: (1) The famous Mass/Energy Equivalence Equation (arising out of Special Relativity): E = (gamma)mc2 , and (2) The definition of Gravity itself as provided by General Relativity (i.e. Gravity is the curvature of Space-Time in the presence of a Massive object). Now, see if you can somehow use those two to span the Mass/Energy Equivalence Equation to include Space-Time as well. In other words, try to show true Mass/Energy/ Space-Time equivalence. Think of it like water in three separate phases: Ice / Liquid / Gas, where we know we can go from one state to another. Now imagine if you could transform all Mass not only into a pure Energy state but also into pure Space-Time. …. What would be the physical, technological and philosophical ramifications of such a thing? …. Now, if I tell you anymore, I am sure the Freemasons WILL eliminate me! LOL :-) …… Have Fun My Friend!

Answer 2

Nobody knows what energy is. There is no precise definition of it in physics.

1) energy cannot be created or destroyed
2) energy implies a curve in spacetime
3) energy and order are closely related

Feynman said it bluntly: "It is important to realize that in physics today, we have no knowledge of what energy is." [Richard P. Feynman, Robert B. Leighton, and Matthew Sands, Lectures on Physics, Addison-Wesley, Reading, MA, Vol. 1, 1964, p. 4-2.]

Answer 3

there's the individual then there is the rest of the universe be yourself and take on only what you can handle buy some books and distinguish that which is most benificial to you and your learning objectives also learn the basic signs and symbols and scientific measurements and basic theories mass plus impetus creates motion motion has path path has velocity and trajectory ,resistance creates transfer of velocity (slowing of mass) newton said an object in motion tends to stay in motion (or rest)until an outside force acts upon it such as the ground p.s. impetus is the application of force to an object that causes the object to acquire motion

Answer 4

One thing that I do know about energy is that ..it either has to be used or turned into something else. It is impossible for it to just disappear.

Answer 5

fleeting as I pass glad to see your writings many poets I have seen am glad for YAnwsers To pen the words within your being to share them with the world your matter matters to one who calls herself giggles.

Answer 6

There are far too many imponderables on that. You are certainly not low on brain.

Answer 7

you need lots of it to get through the day
