Outside an atomic nucleus, a neutron decays into a proton, an electron and an anti-neutrino within 15 minutes. From this, we can conclude that a neutron is a proton with an electron stuck to it. The function of the neutrino…
In the physics presented in this book, empty space is merely a void with no properties.
The 3 dimensions we normally ascribe to space must therefore be seen as fundamental
Many who believe that Earth is an expanding planet believe that this on its own would have led to stronger surface gravity, and that this in turn explains the impossibly large size of the dinosaurs. However, expansion without an increase…
In one of his books, the author Henry Berg makes the observation that there is something profoundly strange about mirrors.
How is it that a surface made up of atoms can perfectly
In one of his EU lectures Dr. Gerald Pollak makes the suggestion that the atmospheric jet stream of our planet may be an important contributor to its magnetic filed.
The jet stream is
The word “and” is normally associated with addition. If Jack has three apples and Jill has four apples, Jack and Jill have seven apples all together. If Jack pulls a pale up a hill
A common criticism of the eternal universe is that such a universe will suffer heat death trough entropy. All useful energy will at some point be spent, leaving the universe with
Mercury makes its rounds around the Sun a little faster than Newton predicted. This anomaly has been known since Newton's time. But it wasn't before Einstein came along with his curved space-time that conventional science settled the matter for themselves…
Every time we move things from one place to another, we do work by changing the energy of whatever we're pushing around. When we speed things up, we add energy to them. When we slow things down, we subtract. Both…
The equation E = mc², made famous by Einstein, equates energy to mass. It tells us that an increase in energy equates to an increase in inertia. It also tells us that this happens at the speed of light, in…
