Scumbag the Science Guy

Though the anthropic principle just answers that it doesn't matter since if there was nothing, there wouldn't be anyone capable of questioning why there is nothing instead of anything, therefore the question is superfluous. There is something and that's what we're at it.

Scumbag the Science Guy

But seriously that's a great question, although impossible to answer in any way since time was born with the big bang itself.

It's the same than asked "why is there anything instead of nothing?" :iiam:

To continue exposing and fighting moral corruption. Specially on Internet. #TireGate

Actually the fork tips radius is typically too large for anything bad to occur, whereas if you fold aluminium, the local radius is like the size of a hair radius, hence the difference.

Because it conducts the microwaves like the oven walls, except aluminum paper folds easier so you can have locally spikes and it happens the same like in a lightning storm, the currents are attracted to spikes and you can get sparks as a result that can light off inflamable stuff inside.

This thread clearly shows that even hobby sites like magical cards webforums can decisively contribute to raise the scientific culture of the general populace. :hifive:

I don't follow, its implied its the kessler syndrome situation. rocket fucks up one satelite who fucks up two or more, who inturn fuck up two and more each, etc... untill all the satellites in this kind of orbital range are consumed?

tbf I think that parachute entanglement scene took artistic license with the laws of motion for increased dramatic effect

I actually found more funny that through pure coincidence, the hubble telescope/shuttle, ISS, and Chinese space station were all within view range of each other, what a serendipitous movie event!

Is that true? I was under the impression that it had never been proved one way or the other, but that most hypothesized gravity travelled at the speed of light (same as the other forces).
Yes you're right, since the graviton is merely hypothetical, the speed at which the force information transmits is merely hypothetical also. You're much better at
this than with metallurgy.

Basically, no one understands gravitation, same as with quantum mechanics. We just know it exists.

What can you infer about the force needed for a baseball to accelerate at a rate of 5m/s2 compared to the force needed to accelerate the same baseball at a rate of 10m/s2 ?
E=1/2mv^2; dE/dt=ma, and do your homework yourself

Oh, hey, how do magnets work, anyway?
Its like gravity, except pixies send photons instead of gravitons to interact with magnets

Question #1: Why is Gravity only a theory? How is it not a Law?
No one knows. It is incompatible with the other 3 other forces (electromagnetism, strong and weak forces), and with the general quantum mechanics theory. these three are mediated by elemetary particles (photons, gluons, and some bosons). People invented gravitons (hypothetical particles that carry information about gravity) but the thing is that gravitation is felt instantaneously, even if a body is millions of light years away. People struggle to find the Theory of everything which will explain all four forces with just one equation, but then weird-ass theories like Godels incompletness theorem say that such TOE is conceptually impossible.

For time being its safer to think
that Gravitation is due to the workings of invisible pixies and not to bother any further about shit noone cares about for all practical matters.
