| Hi Having thoughts about the superiority of math versus pure physics. For to give an illustration of this we perhaps can give any standard problem which can be solved with math and/or physics. Problem: Finding the common unit or link between matter and energy? Hint: We know in quantum physics the unit between matter and energy is that these can be seen as synonyms, 1 eV is both a energy unit and a mass unit, eV/c^2 is also a mass unit about roughly 1.783 × 10-36 kg. This lot of us should take for an answer on our main problem showing the superiority of math versus pure physics by the division of 1 eV with c^2 giving the link between matter and energy. Matter = energy/(lightspeed * lightspeed.) But to me the pure physics is not in an minor position to math by the finding of another link between matter and energy which is as good as matters itself. By the finding of another link we see that math and pure physics are equal in the search of a answer in common physics. So what's the link? LeoK |

| "LeoK" <*@*.chello.se> wrote in message news:kTmSd.2869$Mw3.1378@amstwist00... Sentence fragment. "Superiority" means...? "Pure physics" means...? Seriously, the word 'superior' implies a decision has been (or could be) made regarding the relative merits of two alternatives. The 'merits' are evaluated according to some criteria. These criteria will necessarily depend on the application to which the two alternatives have been (or will be) put. Bottom line: 'superiority' is a relative and conditional term. As 'energy' is defined in physics, the 'link' is a factor with the dimensions of speed squared. There is a *correspondence* based on the Principle of Relativity. This is not the same thing as "synonyms." When mass is given in electron-Volts (eV) it is done ONLY in applications in which some massive particle is moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light. For example, physicists routinely discuss the energy of a photon as so many ev, but never the *mass* of a photon. giving lightspeed.) The existence of a connection between mass and energy demonstrates the 'superiority' of math to pure physics exactly how??? finding itself. in This arrangement of words demonstrates conclusively that English is not your first language. Please, find a more competent translator for your sentences before trying to post in English. The multiple grammatical problems here render the sentences almost devoid of sense. We are discussing *your* question: "Finding the common unit or link between matter and energy?" We will need a definition of "link" which is appropriate and acceptable in BOTH contexts before we can confront the problem. ["Mass" and "energy" both have definitions already which are equally satisfactory in either context.] Choose one: [Only registered users see links. ] Come back when you have figured out what you want to talk about.
