Edward Elrick Posted September 19, 2010 Posted September 19, 2010 What are the limitations of classic mechanics and which are its differences with quantum mechanics and relativistic mechanics?
insane_alien Posted September 19, 2010 Posted September 19, 2010 well, classical mechanics produces inaccurate results beyond 0.1c and if things are smaller than a few nanometers. relativistic mechanics is needed for things faster than 0.1c as it introduces the correction factors and other interesting things and quantum mechanics is needed for the small things as again, it adds in all the missing things. between those to limits classical mechanics is an acceptable approximation. 1
