  1. This might be relevant: http://blogs.scienceforums.net/onablog/2012/10/15/an-open-letter-about-your-new-theory/
  2. Can you explain how you determined the current in each resistor? An LED is not a resistor. It has a non-linear voltage-current curve so the measured "resistance" will depend on the applied voltage. The LED will light if there is sufficient voltage across it. You don't give enough information to say whether this is expected or not.
  3. Can you explain what you mean; you question isn't very clear. I assume "Engineering Math" means the mathematics used in engineering. But what is "Engineering Physic"?
  4. Can you explain how you determined this. I'm not sure what you mean by "a resistor LED" but you can't measure the resistance of an LED with a meter. It has a non-linear voltage-current relationship (i.e. it is not a resistor) and so the measured resistance will depend on the voltage. As long as there is still sufficient voltage across the diode, it will light up. You don't provide enough detail of your set up to comment any further. It sounds more like you don't fully understand what is happening.
  5. As does much modern technology. Most modern semiconductors are now at the point where quantum effects need to be taken itno account in the design of manufacturing processes and the design of the individual components (transistors, LEDs, wiring, etc) on the chip. If quantum theory were wrong it would be very obvious. And this depends on SR being correct.
  6. Some may be different versions of the same basic idea in order to eliminate other possible explanations, or to increase the accuracy. There are also many thousands of tests which are equivalent to directly testing SR, for example tests of Lorentz invariance. Some of these have been done to extraoridinary levels of accuracy.
  7. Because it has a protective layer of aluminium oxide, which is not soluble in nitric acid. This is, in general, why aluminium is resistant to furtehr oxidation or other forms of corrosion.
  8. Don't thank me, thank Google! (I had forgotten the lunar caustic name completely)
  9. "It was once called lunar caustic because silver was called luna by the ancient alchemists, who believed that silver was associated with the moon." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_nitrate
  10. What is a "gluon strand"? Why would electrons move around neutrons or gluons when they are both electrically neutral? Your idea starts out wrong and goes downhill from there.
