Week-4 Energy, Matter and the Four Forces

  • How has e=mc^2 affected you?
This formula has caused me stress while using it chemistry. 
This formula shows that all matter contains energy. Even the smallest particle contains mass, which is energy. Everything around us is energy. All of these energetic products are directly influencing one another. I am energy and I am made up of energy...I am an energetic being. So his formula affects everything that happens to me internally and externally at all times. 

  • How would you compare the four forces?
Weakest to->>>>>>> greatest force

gravity, weak nuclear force, electromagnetic force, strong nuclear force

the forces interact with one another to great things such as the grand unified theory. Where the weak and strong nuclear force comes together like a magnet. All of these forces are separate but they work together to create one great force or many great forces at a team. 

  • What is the function of gravity? 
"Gravitation is the tendency of masses to move toward each other."
The force of gravity is what keeps everything in orbit around the sun. It keeps my laptop from floating and keeps me grounded to this planet. It allows objects to stay on the surface of the earth. It allows things to fall when things are dropped. Gravity helps prevent our planets and stars from colliding. Going in a proper orbit with a gravitational pull.

    "Everything around us is energy" is an important observation you made. It would be interesting if the energy potential of every life form was accessible to that life form. The E=MC2 concept is a fun theoretical mental exercise. It's mostly theoretical because the energy potential of most molecules of animate life forms and inanimate objects are not accessible. I am sure there is a good reason for that.

    It's definitely food for thought that the four forces are the foundation for every other force in the universe!

Week 2- Quantum Mechanics

1. Blog Assignments for Week 2:  Your reflections on Uncertainty:       This principle tells us that there is a limit to what we humans can know and understand about quantum particles. There are things that are too small that cannot be measured. Which is where the Uncertainty principle comes in. From what I understand, it is to difficult to get exact measurements of energy and time. We also cannot precisely measure the position and the momentum of a particle  SImply the act of observing or witnessing something occur directly affects what occurred. An example of this is Schrodinger's cat. This cat is chambered up with radioactive substances. When the observer opens the chamber after an hour the cat being alive or dead could be directly influenced by the observer. maybe the cat died only when the observer opened the chamber. This principle says any external influence to something can possibly influence what is happening.  I feel like this pr...

Midterm Paper- Time: East vs West

Each culture in the world views time differently. In western culture, time is perceived to be more linear. In America time is valuable on a financial level. Anyone in the western business world typically believes that time is money. Also in the western business world, they believe that making quick decisions is important. If a decision isn’t made right away then time is being wasted and so is their money. Westerns are not as careful with considering how it may affect the future and what mistakes have been made in the past. For the westerns its efficiency they value. Time is closely related to life, money, and efficiency. Westerns don’t view the lessons of the past like the Chinese do, they determine how the past lessons were by how the present situation is. The west very much values the present. While in the Eastern world time is viewed not linear but cyclic. Time is precious and the world has an abundance of it, with this abundance allows them to wait for the perfect time. Every d...

Week 9- Sacred Geometry and Fibonacci

Ø   Are there connections you can make between Sacred Geometry and Physics? There are many links between Sacred Geometry and Physics.  Such as quantum entanglement. In Sacred Geometry measurement is very important and so is the calculation. One degree of difference in design will change and influence the rest of the of geometry. Just like a ripple/butterfly effect which occurs. It sharts with something small, but over great distances, it can have a huge influence. Such as seeds, pine cones, protons, pineapples, cauliflower...etc. It's easy to find common reoccurring patterns all around us in nature. In Chinese medicine, this is often seen and considered when we work with feng shui. Physicists often create mathematical patterns which represent the universe and many of these drawings come out as sacred geometry. One example is the flower of life. Which is a shadow of a Metatron cube. Which represents the entire universe and how everything is interconnected.  Sacr...
