Physics...

I've had questions and answers from physicists and read things in books that, blatantly, don't make sense.

I'm a HS grad with NO FORMAL EDUCATION WHAT-SO-EVER in physics.  To all you Dr.s, Graduates, and Profs. I have a single, blunt message:

Please pull your heads out of your asses.

I'm sorry to be harsh, but this needs to be said, "G" - Newton's G - is wrong, and so is any equation that uses it.

Let's start off with something simple; if I were to take an exam and a question was:
"Draw a cube"
and all I did was to draw a square, my answer would be marked wrong.  If I, then, went up to my teacher and demanded it be marked correct because "A cube contains a square", I'd get laughed at.

To quote John Gribbin in "Get a Grip on Physics";
"Newtonian mechanics isn't "wrong". It is in effect the version of Einsteinian mechanics that applies for velocities much smaller than the speed of light-a "special case" of the special theory of relativity.  To put it another way, Newtonian mechanics, in all its glory, is entirely contained within Einstein's description of the world."

"Newtonian mechanics" is COMPLETELY WRONG.  Physicists tell me to provide math for my ideas, so I'll pull that shit on you now.  PROVIDE THE MATH THAT PROVES NEWTONIAN MECHANICS IS ACCURATE.  Newton's mechanics are a good approximation for measurements at low, every-day velocities that we work with here on planet Earth. Approximations are NOT ACCURATE, they are approximations.  While you may end up with similar answers for velocity, you will completely fail at accounting for mass increase, length contraction, and time dilation, unless you decide to bull-shit staple it on to your answer because you know it's an effect, even though Newton has no account for it in his equations.

To use the math another way, Einstein's equations account for a FOUR DIMENSIONAL UNIVERSE, Newtons account for ONE or TWO DIMENSIONS.  We do not live in a one/two dimensional universe.  The difference?  Draw a tesseract.  And Newton draws a line/square.

FOUR DIMENSIONS:
v = (v1 + v2) / ( 1 + (v1*v2) / c^2 )






ONE DIMENSION:
v = v1 + v2

While "v1 + v2" is adopted from Newton, Einstein's equation inherits a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT meaning than Newtons.  Newton's equation does not account for increases in Mass, Decrease in Length, or Time Dilation.  How this is STILL considered an approximation, is beyond my comprehension.  Just because the differences appear to be very, very, very small; imperceptible to us as human, does not mean that they are not wrong. 

...

Gravity is a complete and total cluster fuck. Einstein was a BRILLIANT man and well educated.  I am not well educated, nor do I have the background in mathematics to adequately attack his equation for gravity... I don't even have my notebook with the equation at the moment.

F = G ((m1 * m2) / r^2)

"G" is nothing more than a cosmological fudge factor.

Newton, was also a BRILLIANT man, but he had NO WAY of knowing that the Universe was 4 dimensional, and his equations do not reflect a 4 dimensional universe.  The FACT that his equation for gravity falls apart at high masses is expected.

The answer, then, is to throw the equations away, not to adopt them and integrate them into more complex equations.


How a number can have a negative dimension of mass and two negative dimensions of time, is far, far, far beyond my comprehension, and more a symptom of "cosmological fudge factor" than of "complete accuracy".  The units involved in Newtons equation are ... lacking.  Velocity is a FOUR DIMENSIONAL unit, it contains a representation of both space and time (v = d / t).  MASS is only a representation of the occupation of the time dimension.  To equate the problem this causes to the velocity equations: imagine having measurements of distance, but not knowing the constraints of time, you wouldn't be able to do the math.  r^2 isn't much better off.  Distance without the constraint of time... We live in a four dimensional universe, any measurement that is meant to have an effect on time - needs to have both space and time in at least some of the variables.

Example:
t = sqrt ( 1 - ( v^2 / c^2 ) )

...

Until physicists throw out their equations for gravity, we will be stuck spinning our wheels trying to decipher a universe in a way that cannot be deciphered.
