But then what are these theories about the total energy of the Universe being null? (Universe from nothing theories)

There is a negative sign related with time and you don't address that. I mean, when transforming time into distance the sign is reversed. see discussion in the thread http://www.scienceforums.net/topic/53525-why-negative/ At the end of the thread it is even suggested that: which has as consequence And that

Right E is something m is something different But you can transform m into E by making the following: _multiply m with square meters _multiply m with a number (a constant) _divide m by square seconds After executing those 3 operations, m can be transformed into E. So clearly, m is different from E. The "equivalence" simply means that if you are given E, you can easily calculate m. As if you were given apples and the constant weight of an apple then you can calculate the weight of a million apples. But apple and weight are different concepts. And of course if all apples have a weight, not all weights are made of apples.

That's the point. Criminalizing is a gift to maffia. As a consequence it provokes an increase of "black money" together with a decrease of "white money" (because people in need will use the money from their legal income and spend it for illegal (black) use. From the point of vue of economics, it is a disaster.

the "My content" has a time limit indicated in grey characters below the "My content" title. In my case it goes like this. But if you make a search by other ways you may find older threads. Sometimes I use Google search for that.

Obtuse?

It is my understanding of established physics. Not considering the cosmological expansion of space of course. If I am wrong, please proceed. Anyway this is not about absolute time and absolute space. It is about relative measurements of time and space into Spacetime. When time dilates, length contracts. You cannot have the one without the other. It acts as a conservation law.

This quote above from the OP. The OP has introduced the concept of "travel" through time. I disagree it is about semantics. It is about the difference between an object experiencing motion and the receptacle in which motion happens. An object can speed up or decelerate. The receptacle, called Spacetime, is like a block engraved in Pendelikon marble. The concepts of time dilation and length contraction are about the measurement from one Frame of Reference to another. Time & Space do not dilate & contract just because someone else in another FOR is taking a measurement. If ten observers in 10 FoRs are taking measurements of a single moving object, they will obtain 10 different dilations & contractions. That does not mean time & space dilate & contract in 10 different ways, it means that each observer will take a different measurement and will be able to know exactly what the 9 other observers will measure. ------------ Sorry, the correct is "pentelic marble".

Time is not a speed. I have been challenged here on this forum when I tried to explain my POV of things "traveling" through time. The word "travel" or "motion" through time is the question here. IOW do we "move" through time? Some other members say that no, we don't "move". If I am not abused, Theory states that we "extend" through time.

Theory says Time is a dimension. Future past & present are direction on this dimension that are relative to the observer. Napoleon is somewhere on our past, we are somewhere on Napoleon's future I believe so, yes, but some other members may disagree on that. No. A rate of seconds by seconds (s/s) has no meaning. No more meaning that a meters by meters for distances. A distance has units meters, and time has units seconds. Point. There is no rate. I don't understand that. Well, there are only 2 directions available, so for 3 elements it should not be a surprise that the 2 of them have the same direction. Equations of thermodynamics are time reversible IIRC. The 2nd law is empirical, it describes an observation, so it should not a surprise that this observation is accurate. I don't think so. Space by itself is an outdated concept. The correct concept is Spacetime. If time is part of Spacetime, then the question is what happen to spacetime once it passes the event horizon. And since Spacetime is a receptacle, my gut feeling is that nothing happens. Time cannot "speed up" nor "slow down", these are wrong concepts similar to the concept of rate you introduced earlier. That ressembles your earlier question. Indeed, does a photon "travel" through time? That is a tricky question because the concept itself of "existence" is directly linked to time.

It took me 5 minutes to find one from a group picture cutting a cake. Some time ago I had found another one from a seminar you gave. I don't bother to find it back, it was just to see who was behind Sean Connery (not behind James Bond). That makes two. Happy to learn you found yourself a third time.. Noticing you choosed as avatar twice a person portrayed by an actor and not a real individual.

Right. But you are renowned. Your complete name is on your blog and your picture easily spotted. It looks like hiding behind your finger.

Never mind ---------------- No, not "never mind", I changed (my mind). I changed my mind again. Never Mind

That resumes to an old question of mine: why the avatar is not just you? Why must it be someone else?

Google map pictures from Russia - what is it?

found this: Penza is the town where the line seems to stop. No further info about the "Lomovskaya sentry line built in 1640" https://www.google.nl/maps/place/R158,+Penzenskaya+oblast',+Rusland,+442411/@52.9615576,45.0479314,13272m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m12!1m9!4m8!1m3!2m2!1d44.901894!2d52.9882774!1m3!2m2!1d45.0397761!2d52.9499346!3m1!1s0x41404359e1b923d3:0x5ae3941399493f2e Although looks weird to me that a human intervention with tree plantings from 1640 still persists today. -
Solvay is also a partner of Solar Impulse. http://info.solarimpulse.com/en/our-story/partners/#.Vb0UMfmm2J8 Solvay is very important and highly estimated in Belgium. Make google search about domaine solvay Or about parc Solvay, institut Solvay, etc.

Mass is not equal to energy. Because c^2 has units. One could say that the amount of mass is directly proportional to the amount of energy. Because c^2 is a constant. If mass were equal to energy, then c^2 should be a simple number without units, and units of mass would be the same as units of energy multiplied by a number. But that is not the case.

So, if the baseball is 73mm diameter, the wall with the slit within is 1,5 meter thick.
-
If i undertsand clearly that means the material thickness and the wavelength are of the same order of magnitude. It is like passing a baseball through a brick wall as thick as the diameter of the ball.
-
Not the spacing. The thickness of the material used to make the slits.

See here (the whole thread is similar) http://www.scienceforums.net/topic/88018-proof-a-negative-times-a-negative-equals-a-positive/?p=856454 ------------------------------- Enhancing a little bit: It is like there were 2 KINDS OF POSITIVE, but mathematics don't care.
-
In the standard experiment, how much is the thickness of the slit and its relation to the photon's wavelength?
