that is the weird part

double slit experiment

if we observe the light its one way and if we dont observe its another way

Well I think it was Einstein who started to theorize about the one way speed of light. But it’s the quintessential catch 22 since in order to test the one way speed of light you have to know the one way speed of light

i think thats how it worked

There is also this movie showing something weird happening in the horizon https://youtu.be/_uyFC-Tgnz0

https://youtu.be/-qxev8L27Lo

@jeremy when it’s tested as a particle it’s a particle. When it’s tested as a wave it’s a wave

i think it has to do with if we observe it or not

if we look its one way if we dont look its another way

i was talkin about the double slit experiment

Double slit is often misinterpreted

Have to be careful with that one

well isnt it if we observe the light or observe the results its one way and if we dont its the other way ?

i know it has something to do with us observing somehow

us observing changes the result in the same way everytime

No. If it’s actively tested as a wave it shows up as a wave. If it’s actively tested as a particle then it’s a particle

u sure?

i thought it had to do with us observing

I honk you’re thinking of some sort of schroedingers cat scenario

na

My Cat has passed the test to be a cat

Basically, according to double slit, if anything interacts with an event (and observing is considered an interaction), that event will fundamentally change in some way.

not the stupid cat thing that makes as much sense as infinite monkeys on infinite typewriters

A cat that knocks the front door

so the double slit is specifically if we observe it changes the form light takes

so when we dont look its one way and when we do look its the other way

I think that sort of stuff states that if you don’t observe it’s just kind of up in the air

Double slit doesn’t have to do with light specifically

Like it’s neither

idk

im more interested int he boats going over the curve or not lol

u guys got photoshop ?

That’s Schroedinger’s cat, Red

Oof

Double slit just states that the act of observing must change the event being observed

I slept through all my classes but history

so light is either a particle or wave depending on if we observe it or not ok

thats what i thought

Apparently people have done the double slit experiment and gotten the same results with C60, aka buckminsterfullerene. That's 60 carbon atoms!

Per molecule

idk what that means

I think we should perhaps look more into the medium light is travelling through rather than light itself

The earth is flat

@ElectroquasistaticMagnetoMan air

But my b*tch aint

@floridaswamptrash I’m happy for you

Thanks man

Well the interference patterns observed from the double slit experiment show that light and electrons experience wave/particle duality. This can be calculated with the schrodinger equation. Basically the less mass a particle has, the less likely you will be to predict its location.

C60 has a lot of mass

i dont believe in that shrodingers cat thing

thats a theory right ?

or is that even science sounded more like philosophy when i heard it

Apparently Schrodinger's cat is a thought experiment Schrodinger came up with to explain how silly super position is. (a particle being in both states at the same time).

I think he then realised that he couldn't actually disprove it.

yeah schrodingers cat isnt falsifiable

in the experiment schrodinger's cat is both dead and alive at the same time

It's not really a theory itself, more of a predictive model. The schrodinger equations form the basis of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED), the current scientific consensus for the behaviour of the electromagnetic force. In fact, I don't think there's really a quantum theory that doesn't involve the schrodinger equations in some way.

Don't quote me on that though.

i thought it was his interpretation of quantum physics or something

nvm i searched up on google and i got this

“Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment about quantum physics. Erwin Schrödinger suggested it in 1935, in reaction to the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum physics.”

It's as important to quantum mechanics as F=ma is to Newtonian physics

Apparently anyway.

i dont really know anything about quantum physics i just read about it

like i just read about string theory because i think its awesome

Same, but it pisses me off when I read it

Because it doesn't make sense

Or its counter intuitive

id imagine it does when you have it explained by a professor

because things online aren’t always explained in the best ways

Yeah, but it really doesn't make sense some times.

Like, I understand what they say, but it just doesn't seem logical.

yeah i find string theory and the fractal dimension very confusing

and then string theory also ties in to M theory which i dont even know what that is at the moment

but imo quantum physics is to complex for me to become a quantum physicist so im just gonna stick to software engineering

The problem I have is; we've reached a point in physics where it's really difficult to actually observe things accurately for what they are. We have to come up with complicated mathematics that involve a ton of probability.

When you apply that math to reality, strange things happen. Because it's not supposed to be reality, just predict it. But there's no choice but to apply the math to reality.

But the thing is, we actually do observe some really weird things sometimes.

theres more than one way to look at something

oh short and snappy look how cool i am

i think quantum physics is the only thing thats truly random because you can do one thing and get one result then do the same exact thing and get another

I think string theory was designed to be as mathematically accurate as possible. Mathematically accurate doesn't mean realistic...

i mean

string theory is supposed to be the “theory of everything”

Things are only random to us if we don't know how they work.

they are called theory for a reason

@Wardak “A scientific theory is an explanation of an aspect of the natural world that can be repeatedly tested and verified in accordance with the scientific method, using accepted protocols of observation, measurement, and evaluation of results”

yeah

as long as they are considered theorems then there is a possibility a scientist many years in the future would debunk it

generally

unlike a scientific law a theory actually explains how something works scientific laws only explain the phenomenon

or tries to

like gravity we know it exists but we dont know how it works therefore making it a law

i believe theories are held higher in science than laws but dont quote me on that im not sure how true that is

regardless about that comparison

theories can be disproven

with greater technology and discoveries

and new theories introduced

not all though

of course there are some theories right now that are so accurate that there probably isnt another explanation

Which theory of gravity do you believe in?

the thing is theories arnt wrong because theories are supposed to be able to be repeated

personally i dont care about gravity

i dont believe sht

and its not something personally worth researching into unless i need to

@eletrick33 even if theories show high repeatability they can be disprove i guess

the way i think it

Say that too loudly and you might float away 🙄

in the case that a theory is disproven then i would imagine that it would be changed or removed

wdym

all i need to know about gravity is for my maths calculations

i think hes saying that with out gravity we would float away

the 9.8ms-2 accel

but i think would just fly off the earth because of how fast were moving

but idk

yh but why would gravity stop

or exhibit no force

It was a joke

say somethign funny

make me laugh

kid

KID#

if gravity just stopped we would all be screwed

ok

i got you

make a FUNNY joke

people arnt actually blind they just have their render distance set to 0

LOL

I like gravity

It’s pretty neat

that could be ships disappearing on a flat earth

Eem

Hello

Hey

How are you?

The reason people believe earth is flat is because theres no apparent curve, well that's because the size of the earth is **so** large, that it *appears* flat because it's not small enough for you to see the curve

except when you see a ship go over it?

then suddenly it's small enough

Your eyes can see the ship much better then a slight decline.

I'm good my nuggle @Aiden {EMT}

Great

great.. so even though the earth is so massive

we can still see a ship go over the curve

It's because our vision is like straightforward and not left to right

@carlito hey, give me 1 link of solid proof of flat earth

If you have not researched it then perhaps you've got some way to go @Cake B0i

@carlito give me a link.

Some sort of evidence

How can you even prove someone has done research

I mean

It's easy to say

@Cake B0i So there's no curve then, that means Earth's flat

'do your research'

But then if they do and come back

How do you even judge if they did

Same goes for yourself, how can you prove to others that you yourself has done the necessary research

@Human Sheeple since the earth is flat, what's at the edge?

Other than spamming links.

@Cake B0i Your feet

good point @Aiden {EMT}

Unless you're sat on the floor with your feet in the air doing weird yoga stuff, then it's your ass that's at the edge

and anyone that thinks that 'one link' will change it all, well then there's something up with that logic

Hah, just as I thought. Flat earthers always start bluffing and saying "Your just a troll" whenever I ask for proof

Let's not jump to conclusions and accusations

Yeah there's your proof

...

Nice.. let's see if that converts him

Let me just ask you to not mock any party within this discussion

Even though it seems hard to not do so

It's pretty difficult not to mock the globe earth theory

it's so ridiculous

*facepalm* oh my ***FUCKING*** god. The size of the earth makes that level.

but i'll try not to mock okay

It makes it hard not to mock both parties for being childish and irrational within heated discussions

well, we all know which camp started the childishness now don't we

The earth is flat

But my b*tch aint

As I rarely see both parties resolving their issues peacefully and with solid proof without the other party bombarding them with insults.

i mean

the earth is flat and round

we've been beaten into submission with childishness

checkmate 100

yes, yes yes!!.. flat and round is most likely

two in one

win win

no ones wrong

best ending

Bagel shape

not really

shut the fuk up

dont

not really

me

you noob

because there's still those that believe in spherical shape

what about them

checkmate who?

round does not equal spherical

is your plate spherical?

the plate you eat from?

you type too much

So what

and what are you tryna go to

Let them be

As to how you would know...

what do u lsiten to

mozart

Uh not always

what's mozart?

uh dont worry

Anyway I don't understand what the meaning of this conversation is

hes a bloody globe earther

Like... 90% of the world population

those degens cant believe they live in sucha life where they are brainwashed to believe that the world is spherical

look if i get my telescope over here

i can seee

mount everest

still typing?

Including most of the Greek philosophers, most politicians...

you beating my a$$ with typing man

say it with ur chest
