Why is E=MC2 wrong
« on: July 21, 2013, 09:04:26 am »
I came across these this today. On its own its very interesting but they do a whole series of video's that are very relevant to electronics, so I thought I would post this one and put the cat amongst the pigeons.

I like the one about pi being wrong.
(Should be 6.28 because there's more uses of 2*pi than there are of pi by itself)

The same story is true for F=m.a
First of all it are vectors (except m)
and second this is only true for a constant mass, this removes a term in the equation.

Science  has a way to go before they can say what is wrong or right, I don't think anyone can argue that it wasn't a step in the right direction.

Scientist seem to be more interested in proving everyone else wrong rather than working toward a common goal, they tend to sweep things under the rug or discredit them based on political leanings.

Some people get butthurt when they're wrong or get told they have no evidence for their position.
