The units are H (Heat), N (Number of atoms), E (Number of electrons),L (Half life) and Delta (Atomic number) The more factors you add the more complex it gets but it wont work without respect to time. So you don't understand what physical units are (was it not in primary school?).. The number of electrons or the atomic number are unitless quantities.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensionless_quantity Charge, for example, is not a dimensionless/unitless quantity because it is the number of electrons or protons multiplied by the elementary charge. The elementary charge has the unit C = Coulomb. Multiplied by the dimensionless/unitless number of electrons/protons, it still gives the result in Coulombs. Half-life is in the same units as time (seconds, hours, years, billions of years, etc.). In science, it is easy to check whether someone's equation is correct or not, simply by checking whether the units cancel out correctly. If they don't, it is immediately a sign of error.

iNow Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 What makes you think I can’t understand metaphor? That’s quite an extreme claim to make against a total stranger. Perhaps it’s ridiculous comments like these which are driving members to downvote so many of your posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspireme Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) Okaaayy. So reading through this thread, my brain is like whaaa? So, from the original post, I was confused.  You call it Rumpelstiltskin because he split in two? But your theory is about things wanting to be stable and wanting to survive? As if they are living? Which I get but, this contradicts the Rumpelstiltskin name right?  Anyway...  To focus on the point...  Is the universe alive at the atomic scale? I have to agree somewhat. I wouldn't even begin to try to comprehend an equation for that. I don't think the dynamics of the quantum universe can be wrapped up in one simple equation. Heck, even human life can't be. But, the universe has a lot of symmetry and there are fractals everywhere, who's to say that doesn't extend beyond the field we experience. I wonder if Earth is a living creature. It has a heart beat apparently, and em field like our brains, iron blood (the core) which bleeds out of volcanos, lots of villi (trees), bacteria/parasites living on it that both hurt it and help it live (like the bacteria in our guts). It has cycles.  Edited November 1, 2023 by Inspireme Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
