Widdekind Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Quick Analogy: When a comet comes near some central star, it heats up, off-gases, producing jets, which "rocket" the body around. And, when a charge, comes near some other charge, and accelerates rapidly, it emits various radiation-reaction forces (e.g. Synchrotron, Bremsstrahlung). These scenarios are a little alike.

Spyman Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Sorry for the off topic, but IMHO you should start a blog for your musings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this also analagous to the way that when you fart repeatedly in a public swimming pool your course through the water is changed? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
