Come now, we want some more

ok so i will google it

Googling it isn't a solution. Science usaully isn't scientific facts that you memorise for every instance. You use logic to reach conclusions.

Lets use the scientific method:

First, do you think there could be life as we know it on Pluto?

Just answer the question, yes or no, then give a fact to back up your hypothisis. And saying yes, because their life support systems could be different isn't an answer. Use something you know to reach how you get there. Don't use any what if's.

Can any members see were I am going with this way...

Think of it this way. When you melt an ice cube, what is happining. Do you think water might have any properties that make it easyier for the ice to melt in it then in air.

 

Of course it would, mass=energy EMC2 , light is energy/electromagnetic spectrum , which the absence of would = absolute darkness. Quantum physics will not allow this to happen , what we suppose is empty space really seethes with energy. And also you are referring to the visual spectrum of electromagnetism in which our human eyes are designed by evolution to observe our reality.

 

Just a thought! darkness is relative, a snake perceives objects in infrared , our eyes do not react in that particular part of electromagnetism.

Are you saying that energy and matter is like space and time? What I mean by that the more energy there is, the less matter there is, and were there is matter, there is no energy?

Sorry, I didn't look, I had to get off when I posted it so I just quickly posted it. Won't do that again. Sorry, mods, you can delete this thread.

So, light can be explained by math by equations, heat can, water droplets can with surface tension, motion can be explained. What can't be, or is life just one big math equation?

And another:

 

Of course it would, mass=energy EMC2 , light is energy/electromagnetic spectrum , which the absence of would = absolute darkness. Quantum physics will not allow this to happen , what we suppose is empty space really seethes with energy.

I was just giving a basic example. Here, would this one make you happy Cold is the absence of heat.

And coldness isn't relative...

I need to do more research, but I feel that protein is the highest matter that we consume. I don't think that if we grow the meat in the lab, that it would solve anything, because it takes energy. Like the article said, it took around $325,000 to grow that small amount of meat. Even if they did perfect the procedure, how would they be able to mass produce the meat? They took some stem cells, and grew them into muscle, and they needed cow stem cells to do that. This is very confusing, and I can't think about how they could do this...

How does the body convert food into energy? Is there a way they could make something so high energy that you would only need to take a pill a day? I like eating, but this seems to be a good solution also.

 

You cant equate sound waves to the quantum world, sound waves are just that waves, in the macro- world In the micro- world, light just like other fundamental particles, can exist both as a wave and as a particle. Google the "Double Spit Experiment"

 

Yes "space is a thing", or something, it is a 3 dimensional reality, which contains the stuff of our universe.

Wouldn't space be like darkness, the absence of matter?

Got to love cats

 

Light is both a particle or a wave it depends on how it is observed.

And how, shall I ask, is that so. Does that mean sound is a particle too. That fact just totally screwed up my perception of reality. More research for me...

This is off topic, but if you click on the moderating team link, it says that you have access to All Forums, yet the Residential Experts have access to 37 forums. Is this because there is a secret mod exclusive thread?

I was reading an artical in the New York Times Archive:http://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/06/science/a-lab-grown-burger-gets-a-taste-test.html?_r=0. It was about some scientists who "grew" some cow muscle, and then it got cooked.

Is there anything "wrong" with this. I can't think of any, so that is why I am asking this question.

What is the:

Notification method to use for followed topics daily/weekly digests

Would that be a blog?

And for the Private Messages,All of the boxes were checked off when I got on, and I am not getting notified. I guess I will wait for another one before I jump to any conclusions. I also checked the box that said auto follow threads that I reply to, but there was nothing about auto following a thread that I made, and I find that strange.

For some reason I am not getting notifications when someone PM's me. Also, is there a way to get a notification if someone replies to a thread that you started.

Thanks for reading, or replying

Yes, look at all of the movies and special effects. Just because its there doesn't mean its real.

Key Facts you must do before we can move on: Year length, atmosphere, what is in it(gases, solids, liquids), the temperature, how much gravity it has, the day length, and how much light it gets. Lets start with that.

We are assuming that the life out there is carbon based. We are also assuming that they need three key elements to survive. You are right about trying, as I understand it, thinking that there could be different types of life forms, i.e., maybe an intelligent rock, but you can't think that in this context. Think about what humans need to have to live, then, look at Pluto, and compare it with that. Then use logic to think up of if there could be life there.

NOW REMEMBER, IT IS LIFE AS WE KNOW IT!!! Also, assume that they have everything we have, so their life support systems would be like ours. You will be chasing your tail thinking like you are.

Think about these factors:

Look up the temperature range, atmospheric pressure and atmospheric composition of Pluto and compare it to Earth. See if there is any similarities and what organisms might possibly survive...if they can.

So StringJunky is saying see what the temp of Pluto is, compare it to earth, and do that for the rest.

I just hate it because it insults my intelligence. And also, the email was a yahoo one, and I almost never trust yahoo.

Read this!!!

The subject was Dear Friend(God Belss You) YES BLESS WAS SPELLED WRONG

My Dear

Ms. Diana Morokat is my name. I am the only daughter of late Pnkhmto Morokat,
who was slain by the rebel forces during this ongoing civil war in our country
Syria. I am 23 years old. I am an under-graduate, level 200 medical student at
University. I managed to escape into government refugee camp in London through
the help of some Red Cross Personnel's working in our country. I have an
estimate of TEN Million Dollars in cash that my father left in a Bank vault.
Now that he is no more, I want to transfer the ownership of the fund to you for
safe keeping and relocate to your country to complete my medical course and
permanently reside there. Please let me know if you can be honest with me and
assist me. I proposed to give you 30% of the fund at the successful end for
your honesty, confidentiality. All further details will be disclosed to you as
soon as I have your confidence. email: [i deleted it]
Respectfully

Diana Morokat

I got another one about the FBI wanting to give me 1 billion dollars that the government took away from me. I hate this, this is total crap that I'm getting this!!!

Wonder what site I signed up for to get them emailing me this, oh this makes me so angry

It would not be a violation of conservation of mass and energy, since the black hole gains mass. When the black hole evaporates, the mass it absorbed would also be evaporated, and this would not violate the conservation of mass.

Energy and mass are interchangeable, since [latex]E=mc^2[/latex]. A black hole evaporating would basically mean that all of the energy of a black hole would be converted into radiation. I don't see how this violates the conservation of energy.

If white holes exist, they would have negative entropy. Therefore, the entropy is negative of that of a black hole, i.e [latex]S=\frac{-Akc^3}{4G\hbar}[/latex]. That would be a violation of the 2nd law of thermodynamics in a closed system universe. Meanwhile, the metric would still be the same, as the metric for a spherical, non-rotating body (Schwarzschild metric) is [latex]ds^2=(1-\frac{Rs}{r})dt^2-(1-\frac{Rs}{r})^{-1}dr^2-r^2d \theta ^2 - r^2sin^2(\theta )d \phi ^2[/latex]. But, a white hole needs to have everything away from it. It has to move in a direction opposite of that of black holes, i.e negative gravity. In order for this to work, we need to have the metric in the direction outwards. Since a white hole would have negative gravity, we find that the mass of a white hole must be negative. And because black holes emit hawking radiation, white holes would have to absorb it, making them eventually evaporate, since it would gain mass from hawking radiation.

White holes would be a violation of thermodynamics if the universe is a closed system. If black holes actually do make mass disappear, there would have to be white holes to keep the amount of mass and energy in the universe the same. But, I don't see how black holes violate the law of conservation of mass/energy, since the mass and energy would turn into radiation with the black hole.

 

Have they proved that when black holes evaporate, they give off radiation? Black holes already give off radiation. Did you read this some where, or were you using logic to reach your conclusion.

Just a quick question, before I jump into helping Rajnish Kaushik with his C++. How hard is C++. Is it to the point, or is it crazily stupid and has horrible syntax like JavaScript does.(I strongly dislike JavaScript, JQuerys fine though) How hard is it going from Java to C++. Is it an OO language. And do you peoples have any good links.

Thanks

Joshua

I'm going to have to do some research in it.

I can take basically anything I want, because I have www.vlacs.org , so if I wanted, I could graduate with two diplomas. I know I need to take science up to physics and beyond, and also maths up to how high I can get. I was just wondering if I should take any economics classes, or any thing like that, if it would help me in the long run.
