you're completely missing the point. you are sighting definitions that are plain wrong, and using them in a way that is plain wrong.

no, his point is not that you are not using the whole definition every time, it's that you are consistently either using the wrong definition of a law, and/or using different definitions for each law each time you attempt to use it. you would make a miserable physicist

in fact i believe i remember hearing something like in a hydrogen atom there's enough energy to make a grain of sand jump 1 cm. that's intense if you think about it..

and that's what E=mc^2 means the amount of energy in matter is the amount of mass multiplied by the square of the speed of light. aka there is an astronomically enormous amount of energy in every atom.

ok, you're not wrong... it's just that you're not right. i need you to listen to me carefully, THERE IS NO ENERGY THAT IS CONSERVED IN EITHER OF THESE SYSTEMS. period. it is transferred into different types of of energy like heat and sound. there are clearly different amounts of energy in each...

this is the problem. EVERYTHING you've just said is completely invalid. that is NOT what conservation of energy is about. period. you are using a term because it sounds fancy, but you actually have no idea what it really means. there is no energy that is being conserved in these two systems...

Ok i think i see what's going on. your confusing conservation of energy. first of all, number 5 is a completely false statement. first off, the law of conservation of energy pertaining to all forms of energy states that energy is never lost, only transformed into other states. potential...

yeah unfortunately it's not really an equal situation as you've stated mainly because the pontoons have to cut through the current, overcoming the kinetic friction of the water rushing against them, and potentially if the current is strong enough, the plane would have difficulty taking off, but...

ok i think the problem is you actually have no idea what the law of conservation of energy states. what do you think the law of conservation of energy states? and how EXACTLY does it pertain to this problem?

i'm going to take the time to address a few things you're talking about because i feel you have a very strong intuition (this is obvious) but also a slightly skewed grasp of the physics involved. i'd really like you to take the time to understand the following. work is not a change in...

does something like this exist?

i want to be able to play my game cube on my computer monitor. i was thinking of the possibility of a pci card or something of the like existing that has audio and video in. is there anything like that? i don't have any room really for a tv, so a pci card i can install or some adapter cables for...
