Dies to Removal

Have you ever thought to yourself....how does that work?

Well, I thought it'd be fun to ask Col. Khaddafi! He's a scientist by trade. Let's see how much he knows!

Question #1: Why is Gravity only a theory? How is it not a Law?

Everything in science is theoretical, as nothing can be proven, only disproven.

Consider any given experiment: you make a prediction based on a theory as to how things will work, then either they work that way or they don't. If they work that way, you have reinforced the theory, but you haven't proven it. If they don't, then you have disproved the theory.

Shut up, Checkbox.

I was answering your question, and not even trolling at all.

BUT I DIDN'T ASK YOU!

Scumbag, what is the chemical reason that Checkbox tries too hard?

Chemical imbalance of love; too little dad love, too much uncle love.

hormonal imbalance. and if the answer is wrong, you can invoke internet autism, it justifies all sort of actions.

EDIT: Sarnath'd

Oh, hey, how do magnets work, anyway?

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.

Oh, hey, how do magnets work, anyway?

Its like gravity, except pixies send photons instead of gravitons to interact with magnets

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

What are these infinate tools I have read about ? they sound scientific.

nintendo eshop.


my avatar is the answer

hell yeah Shantae

june is great.


thats when the dnd hack n slash arcade games come to ps3 and xbox 360

holy shit which ones? are they similar to the old Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance games?

no, more like double dragon style. they were arcade games

when are you going to Break Bad?

How did you find the exact ceiling height of my lab?

Can we see pics of your lab?

I bet it looks cool.

Its on the main esther website actually!

...but the thing is that gravitation is felt instantaneously, even if a body is millions of light years away.

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).

Quick google search found some recent work suggesting it does move at the speed of light: http://www.astrowatch.net/2012/12/chine ... e-for.html
I think I have access to Springer. Maybe I'll try to track down the actual paper.

Hey it's Stardust.

Hello! I just couldn't say no to another round of scientific abuse.

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.

Please don't tell my boss. I've been successfully passing as a metallurgist for a long time now.

Don't tell me who your boss is then, since my nickname is scumbag.

Where can I find the double Mermaid.

try fishing for some

where can I find a mermaid to have anal sex with

Oh shit, here we go again.
Scumbag, how do fish procreate?
