9. WAVE PROPULSION: https://imgur.com/BOi8zNF

No it's really not

EM waves have ZERO mass

force is mass times acceleration

no mass yet acceleration occurs

So @Ivan Pavlovich I'm sorry you're wrong

What acceleration?

Do you see the object moving as a result of being shot at with a laser?

lasers emit light or infra red waves

Yeah, waves have energy and they can transfer that.

so it's not a force then is it

It is.

force is mass times acceleration, what's anything times zero @Ivan Pavlovich ?

zero

zero force yet an acceleration occurs

The LIGHT has 0 mass, not the object being pushed.

force is a byproduct of accelertiaon, accelration is not a by product of force

so can you please shut up about forces now you've been proven WRONG

?

F = ma
Therefore a = F/m
m = F/a
You could also say that a stationary cube has no acceleration, and their mass cannot be calculated as you cannot divide by 0 so it cannot exist

This kind of reasoning does not work

I haven't been proven wrong, but we might as well move on.

We're talkign about acceleration and @Ivan Pavlovich keeps insisiting a force is required, it's really not

Can't you use p = f*v and disregard the mass term

But mass is part of the relationship between both

How can you have a force with zero mass @Ivan Pavlovich ?

Yes

How much does a beam of light weigh?

How can you have a mass with no acceleration?

Same equation

Same logic

Ok, so you're confusing the light with the object that's being pushed.

object being pushed by light with zero mass

The acceleration _of the object_ is what matters

@Syntax Thank you, can you tell @Ivan Pavlovich that please

F = ma refers to the object being pushed, not the pusher.

What I was saying is actually going against your line of reasoning

because I swear to god if this zombie doesn't shut up about his forces I'm going to kick him, a zero sum force that creates an acceleration such shit

Censorship.

You can't use the equation to argue that way
Rearrange the equation and your logic causes the value of mass to be uncalculatable

ANYWAYS, let's move on
