Strange Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 2 hours ago, poo thrower said: no because, if one is two things and at one time, and you have picked one of the two things that it can not be, then that is called "avoiding eating vegetables to save more room for pudding (...and then going to play with spaceships)" Photons are neither particles not waves (so they are not "two things at one time"). They have some characteristics of both of these everyday concepts (as well as other characteristics which are less intuitive) and so the terms are used, informally, to describe their behaviour.

Simplified for the mathematically minded: Physics <> Maths yes... because for it to be physics it has to be explained with the universal "language" of maths OR other people have no idea what you are talking about, (further to it completely not allowed to be written in the sciences.) with "spoken word" ("language"), people get told to "F-OFF AND DON'T QUOTE ME." etc (there is a kind of big difference). 2 hours ago, Strange said: Photons are neither particles not waves (so they are not "two things at one time").

"i will just put these soap particles in the washing machine and then watch them wave about a little bit prior to letting somebody else sort out my washing" kind of thing ?

Moderator Note We understand that mainstream science isn't for everyone. Your approach to learning, asking questions and ridiculing the answers, is perhaps not well aligned with our discussion style. It would be selfish of us to keep you here when you could be looking for somewhere you'd be better appreciated, if you're still of the mind to leave. Wishing you the best whichever way you decide. I'm closing this since it's not helping the person it was supposed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
