  1. I start from the premise that FTL propulsion is impossible. The first reason is relativity. The second more important reason is that FTL travel can violate causality. The universe is very stubborn about some things. For instance the universe will not allow you to know your absolute velocity. I think causality is another thing that the universe is stubborn about. I don't think any potential technology that could violate causality would actually work.
  2. I could easily be just loosing my mind but isn't the equation this: = c ∆t / λ = 299792458 m/s X 1sec / 400*10^-9 m = 299792458 m / 400*10^-9 m = 74,931,145,000,000? 400 nm X (10^-9 m/1 nm) = 400 x 10^-9 m I asked you for a source for N = c ∆t / λ, so are you saying ( ∆λ1 - ∆λ2 )/ λ = c ∆t / λ?
  3. I think you made a math error, you're dividing by 10^-9. That didn't help, I could not find that equation in the article
  4. Because we both are intelligent and we have a common language, mathematics.
  5. Could you give a source for that equation? N = 7.5 x 10^14 for a time of 1 sec. I don't really know what that is supposed to tell me. Thanks
  6. I don't agree, I believe that communication with an alien would be rather easy. Communication with ants is difficult because ants don't have anything to say, they're ants.
  7. You certainly can, I just think it is easier to find densities of pure substances in general. That's right. C1V1 = C2V2.
  8. Looks right to me. The easiest way to calculate it is to use this equation C1 X V1 = C2 X V2. That doesn't seem right. How about this... 500ml solution X .3 ethyl alcohol = 150 ml ethyl alcohol (100% pure).
  9. Go ahead and present your idea, it will published here for all to read and it won't cost you anything.

    Power?

    Just to be clear to Capiert, that does not mean KE is a vector, it isn't.
  11. I think that handguns and semiautomatic guns should be banned. I know that is unfair for all of the responsible people who have a hobby of collecting and shooting guns, but life isn't particularly fair. The realization that in many states in the USA if you are in a bar having a drink there are probably several people in that bar that are armed with hand guns is unsettling.

    The KE equation you wrote would mean that an object moving at a constant speed would have zero KE. That is incorrect, hence the equation is incorrect.

    Power?

    It looks like you are saying an object moving at a constant velocity has zero KE, since vf = vi That's a problem.
  14. And it would need to be maybe 1000 meters high? This would be insanely expensive and probably impossible to build with todays technology.
  15. I think the answer, if we assume God was created, would the in the mind of people or God's mom and dad.
  16. I do not think there are women that can compete with men in a professional sport that relies on speed and/or strength. For instance the record for a 100 meter race by a women was 10.49 seconds by Florence Griffith-Joyner. The top 10 high school boys 100 meter times were 10.15 seconds or less, which is more than 1/2 second faster. If Caitlyn Jenner had competed as a women in the Olympics she would have probably won 10 gold metals while setting world records. IMO it is simply unfair to women born as a women to allow transgender women to compete against them.
  17. I do understand. Mass is not energy. Mass can directly be converter to photons, but photons are not energy. It is along the lines of graphite and diamond, graphite can be converted into diamonds but graphite is not diamond
  18. You do know that Pelosi doesn't drink alcohol, right?
  19. Society is only allowed to use the drug that you prefer?
  20. You first have to have evidence that God created life, before moving to your question.
