Romance and laws of physics?

Question

I am specifically targeting Newton’s first law of motion or the law of Inertia here.
The law says “An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless an external force is applied to it”
Based on that I think that law also works for our emotions and feelings.
When we love or get used to someone, we want to keep it going, we don’t want to let go, we resist anything that comes to separate and just keep it going, we can’t quite it unless we apply an external force of determination. Does that a click?
If it doesn’t then you might wanna replace drug addiction smoking, alcohol etc.. And see how much force they need to apply to quite the emotional motion and the only force that really works more than any treatment is determination. That mean the emotional inertia can only be stopped by emotional force.
English is not my first language so you are on your own to figure what I am trying to say, if you get it, do you agree Newton’s first law of motion works at emotional level?

To John Doe.

Yes there are times when the emotion is just shuts down
The same thing happen by the laws of inertia when a moving object suddenly stopped moving there are only two reasons to explain why, first the frictional force decelerate the speed in to zero or the application of external force stopped it from moving.
How that works in finding reason for the emotional motion sudden shut down.
Well there might be a force of depression or lack of enthusiasm etc..or may be boredom decelerate it as friction does to the object, or an external force of crush on another person. But there is always reason no matter how subtle it might be.

You can apply the same law to religious beliefs. How hard it is to isolate your faith from the original beliefs that your parents thought you. From Muslim to Christian, from Christians to Muslims, from Buddhism to Hinduism and vise versa etc... There is always fight, debate, excuses that people create in order to keep it going with what they got used to. It has never been easy for people to convert from one CULT sorry I mean religion to another with out strong external force that bend the emotional motion.

Answer 1

isn't this a bit like Will Self's Quantity Theory of Insanity? If Newton's laws apply to emotions, then there will also be laws of conservation as well.

Self's invention is that there is a fixed amount of madness present in the universe, or in fact in any group defined within an arbitrary boundary. The only unknown is how it is distributed within that boundary.

Take this in the realm of romance, and you can isolate any group and guarantee that there will be the same amount of heartfelt love and carnal desire within that group.

Concentrating this fixed quantity into any sub-group within that boundary, according to the second law of thermodynamics, will require harnessing free energy from outside the environment. This is clearly happening right now: in YA space, my avatar is falling over himself in lust with your avatar. Me, outside YA space: I'm not getting any work done.

Answer 2

Love and emotions are physiological. It's just the endocrine system releasing hormones and adrenaline. When your body senses danger or your body wants to procreate, your endocrine system kicks into gear making you have a response. 'Fight or flight'--eat or be eaten. The urge to mate is as strong as your urge to eat--that way it is assured that the species will procreate.
So if you catch your lover cheating for example, you have a physiological response so that your body will protect itself from harm. If you try to over-ride your bodies natural response to harming itself and you try to accept his behavior by forgiving him too soon, you might get physically ill until you stop trying to over-ride your endocrine system. It will fight back by releasing even more chemicals to the point where your body will shut down if it needs to.

Answer 3

In parts, but there are time were the emotion just shuts down, what would relate to that in Newton's Law?

Answer 4

Ya, I get you. It think you could think of it in that way, sure. A body at rest (fat, lazy people) tend to stay that way and get worse, to where they can't move if they wanted to. But, an athletic person, you can't keep down. Sort of the same thing..emotions are no different.

Answer 5

Well another law of nature,says that all things tend toward chaos without energy.i.e. your desk at work will become untidy without you applying energy to it to keep it neat.I think that applies to relationships.When people stop making an effort.So i don't think Newton 1 would work.

Answer 6

first of all Quantum idea become invented to allow the point particle idea of the electron and proton to proceed. enable's analyze the Heisenburg Uncertainty idea for starters, and ignore concerning the countless self ability of charged element debris and different absurdities of the thoery for now, it particularly is (del)x * (del)p >= hbar / 2. The ability line width of floor state Hydrogen divided through its ability is (del)E / E ~ 10e-6 or (del)p / p = (del)E / (2 * E) = 10e-6 / 2. From DeBroglie and the radius of the Hydrogen atom, one has p = hbar * ok ~ hbar / Angstrom and (del)x ~ Angstrom, so as that (del)x * (del)p ~ 10e-6 * hbar / 2. it is purely off through a element of 10e-6, like maximum of so noted as modern Physics. through the way, darkish ability and count number are purely more suitable idiotic concepts to cover the **** of generic Relativity, and are conveniently non observable. The comic tale is on you schmucks for paying for all of those lies.

Answer 7

It is a very interesting concept. I think you might be on to something here. I wish I could give you ten points for asking it.

Answer 8

Yes

At least at speeds well below the speed of light.

Answer 9

I never thought of it like that. It is a interesting concept.Now you gave me somthing to ponder....

Answer 10

No.
