  1. If an electron and a photon were just 2 points the chances of them 'hitting' each other would be essentially zero. So clearly the picture in your head of this interaction is incorrect.
  2. I'm not sure what the issue is. There is a minimum amount of energy needed for pair production. At the minimum energy needed the pair will form and immediately annihilate each other. If the energy is a bit higher than the minimum then the particle pair will have some KE and will move apart before attracting each other and annihilating each other. If the energy is very high the pair will have enough KE that they never recombine.
  3. But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. No man except for the lavender dude.
  4. It means time is a dimension. You apparently decided for some reason to only recognize spatial dimensions as 'real' dimensions, that's fine for you, but don't expect others to jump on board with you. That is not correct. Special relativity is a special case (flat space time) of general relativity.
  5. It is not possible to locate an event without the dimension of time. For instance if I want to have a meeting with you it is not possible without specifying a time, in other words it takes a minimum of 3 spatial dimension and 1 time dimension.
  6. If I replace metric units with imperial I will still get the correct answers from this equation. That is not true for the relationship you described. Your relationship is a coincidence that is based on arbitrary units.
  7. It is absolutely a coincidence. You are not understanding the comment about units. If I were to change the units from meters to furlongs and time from seconds to fortnights, then your connection would disappear, but an real connection like pV = NkT would still hold with a unit change.
  8. Your phone auto corrected metamaterials to invisibility cloaks?? I don't think there is any way in hell to generate metamaterials or optical wormholes from wifi, sdr, and 5g. Your welcome.
  9. You need 3 invisibility cloaks. First have 2 people under different cloaks texting each other using 5G. Now take a 3rd cloak and cover both the people. This will cause a feed back loop between the magic (at least one of the people texting must be a witch or wizard) and physics resulting in the formation of a worm hole. The hard part is finding invisibility cloaks and witches/wizards. Seems like this shouldn't be in the engineering section...
  10. "Is it possible". No. I don't know what energy times frequency times spectrum would be, but it certainly wouldn't be mass. Shining different wavelengths of light at each other will not form atoms.
  11. I don't want to be on the team, but thanks for the invite.
  12. It doesn't seem mysterious to me. OK, good luck to you and your team.
  13. I guess you are saying you don't like the explanation for the interference pattern. I don't see any particular issue with the explanation. It would seem that a single particle would leave more than one spot on the screen if your idea was right but that doesn't happen. Good luck working out your idea further
  14. I don't know what you mean by that comment. I don't know what casting shadows in higher dimensions has to do with the double slit experiment.
  15. There was no initial velocity specified and I incorrectly assumed (since it was not stated) that the vertical travel was a drop, but if my assumption had been correct an initial velocity of 3.63 m/s would yield a travel distance of 55m in 3 seconds with the acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2.
  16. Since roller coasters are not powered and the question says the coaster is falling vertically the acceleration should be easy to determine, think about it.
  17. Typically these "auditors" are idiots that just want hits on YouTube.
