  1. This is what Trump plans for his enemies. The Capitol police were physically abused by his mob for being "so bad and so evil" for defending Trump's enemies INSIDE the Capitol! Is this respect for law enforcement? WHO exactly are "so bad and so evil"? Earlier he said "Move the fooking mags, let my people in! I don't care if they are armed! They are not here to hurt me!" (They were armed to hurt Trump's enemies, which is ok.) "I know your pain. I know you are hurt. We had an election that was stolen from us. It was a landslide election, and everyone knows it, especially the other side. You have to go home now. We have to have peace....This was a fraudulent election...Go home...We love you. You are very special. You see what happens. You see how others are treated that are so bad and so evil [WTF?!! Who is so bad and evil? The Capitol police? He was actually implying "look how my enemies SHOULD be beaten with poles!!] ...But go home in peace." Unidentified female rioter "We need weapons! We need strong, angry patriots!"

  2. It is not a contradiction, it just isn't compatible with the Newtonian model of time and space. And at its heart, Relativity uses a completely different model for these. In Relativity these measurements are not absolute but frame dependent. An analogy would be these images of two lines: The same set of lines, just viewed from different perspectives. In the first image the red line is "taller" than the green, and in the bottom image the green line is "taller" than the red. The point being that in Relativity, time and space are measured more like the "height" of the lines in the images and not by their absolute length.

  3. No, they are typically retirees looking for something that lets them stay engaged in a meaningful way. The next week they'll be volunteering at the local St. Vincent DePaul Society food bank.

  4. As a note for anyone who may stumble upon this post in the future: This is something I wrote when I really didn't understand much about science and I was also ignorant about a lot of other things. Unfortunately its one of the things that first pops up when I search my name, and its honestly really embarrassing that this exists out there, but unfortunately this forum doesn't delete posts, so all I can do is attach a comment to express my discontent with my silly past self.

  6. I wonder if there is a language difficulty because you seem to be asking questions (which is good) rather than trying to preach. But I would say that you are posting too much at once. So I am going to start with the first part of your post and begin to answer these questions. Then we can see how we go. So the Moon orbits the Earthonce every 27.3 days which makes it angular speed of 2π / (27.3 x24) radians per hour. This is approximately 0.01 rads/hr.. (It will become clear why I am using these units) The Earth also rotates at an angular speed of 2π/24 radians per hour Which is approximately 0.26 rads/hr. Since both rotations are in the same direction the net rotational difference is their difference or 0.26 - 0.01 = 0.25 rads/hr. The radius of the Earth is 6731 kilometres. So if a static bulge is to keep up with the moon is must travel at 6731 x 0.25 km per hour. This agrees with your calculation. A wave travelling at this speed is the basis of the simple dynamic theory. But this theory is only applicable within the following constraints. If the depth of the water is d in km then waves of wavelength L will propagate witha velocity of v = √(gL/2π) for waves in deep water. Where g is the acceleration due to gravity in km/hr2 which is 127008 km/hr2 This makes the wavelength as (1600*1600*2π) / 127008 or 127 km. However this formulae is only valid for d/L greater than 0.5. Now the average depth of the ocean is around 3.6 km and tha max depth is only 11 km (NOAA) So dl << 0.5 and the condition is not satisfied for the deep water formulae. Which makes the ocean too shallow for a simple resonant system. So instead we must use the shallow water which then includes the effect of the bottom and other topography. The formula for such waves is given by v = √(gd) Which is good to around (1600 * 1600) /127008 km Which is approximately 20km. This emans that the wave equation is no longer homogenous (equal to zero in this case) There is now a forcing term involved as well and the theory is known as forcing. Does this help and do you wish to continue ?

  7. Be nice... or take a long walk off a short pier. Why are you bothering with us? Given your supposed experience in science discussions, you are awfully hot-headed. Do you think we should fawn and help you present your pet ideas? If you assert, expect resistance... tis science.

  8. What former (from my list)? Former are people working at polling stations.. ..then you shouldn't be ambiguous (and pay special attention not to be ambiguous in the future).. Otherwise there will be meaningless "what did you mean" or "misunderstandings" derailing the thread.. ...I was referring to "his minions"...

  9. ..which is simply impossible in the US from the very beginning.. ? ..just like any other politician..? Honest? You must be joking or living in an illusion.. These volunteers are seeking contact with politician-to-be.. if he or she succeeds, they hope to be remembered, when it comes to the ministerial table layout and in hope to get lucrative job, worth to have in their CV.. ..I did not say a word, not thought, about counting stage..

  10. Now you have the mechanism for charged particles releasing and absorbing photons. With the photon being fundamental, if you wrap it around the charged particle you have an absorption with the photon charge source aligning with the charged particles dipoles. An acceleration will unravel the photon so it can be released. The charge does not change meaningfully because they are layered on top of each other. Attached is a visual of photon absorption in a hydrogen atom where it wraps around itself four times.

  11. My response is for anyone else who may feel trapped and obligated to read. No. I'm blocking him because he's losing his marbles (e.g. feeling trapped by me merely posting to this thread, or whatever that's bugging him)
