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
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
“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
