What definition did you find that denies that heat is kinetic
energy?

Yes, I already know that. I asked you a specific question about a
situation it predicts will have a specific result, the "mysterious
loss" of momentum. Do you have an answer?

Please stick with one illustrative example at a time.

I ask again; do you think momentum is mysteriously lost every time
the cops test a gun as I described, yes or no?

There is a very simple answer to all this, randomly vibrate a low mass
glass bulb filled of sand or salt crystals stop shake it when the
system crystal sytem taken on momentum and behave truly chatoic
respective the reference glass bulb.

Now let it free float the bulb will not move only oscillate and
finally come to stop just like the sandcrystals.

Now you boneheads where did the momentum go, even a bot could figure
it out.

Same goes for a glass bulb filled with water that is boiling in space
the water molecules have momentum but after a while, the water will
settle down, now did not the boiling water have momentum in the first
place.

Start to think bot brains.

So sand crystals don't swallow up energy by vibrating.

The way I see it is punching a sandbag in the gym. It does not swing
much because maybe it absorbs a lot of the energy.

Is there a good absorbant better than sand? (asking it in general from
others, if somebody knows it)

This idea was more understood by most than I expected when I came
here.
