If that's what you thought empty space meant -- devoid > of all physical properties -- then you were simply mistaken. i didn't say that empty space is devoid of physical properties. I said that if empty space is void of any enitity then it cannot have any property. My point is that you called the ether as empty space and then proceeded to deny the existence of the ether---you tried to have your cake and eat it too...eh?

Then again, he thought the product of two negative numbers was a negative number.

Ken, you made a statement that stress exists in solids only and not in liquids or gases. I showed you explicitly and with an introductory link that stress is found in liquids as well. You could at least admit that you were wrong when you said there is no stress in liquids. If you cannot admit you are wrong when the truth is shoved under your nose, you should at least admit that you have a severe personality problem. > > > > > > > Do you need a pointer to a beginner's guide?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_stress > > > > > > > Are you thinking that the only things that physics deals with are > > > > > > solids, liquids, and gases, and nothing else?

I'm sorry, Ken, but this is like saying a lizard is a mammal because it has four legs and a tail and two eyes, which are the unique properties of mammals. It's a wrong statement, and the rationale for making that statement is also wrong. You made a mistake in thinking that stresses only exist in solids. I showed you that was a mistake. You are now making a mistake that physical properties only pertain to matter. This is also a mistake. > > > > > > > > It is a new entity (medium or aether) > > > > > that can have stress and permittivity.

Then again, he thought the product > of two negative numbers was a negative number. I realize when you watch a battery operated clock start to tick slower you think time is actually changing. You have a clock with a paddle for the second hand. You drop the clock off the side of a boat. The further and further the clock drops into the ocean the slower it 'ticks', as determined by a clock on the boat. The clock 'ticks' slower because of the increase in the hydrostatic pressure on the paddle. Since you refuse to believe in the existence of water you insist time changes. You have an atomic clock on the space station. You 'drop' the clock off the 'side' of the space station. The further and further the clock 'drops' towards the Earth the slower it 'ticks', as determined by a clock on the space station. The clock 'ticks' slower because of the increase in the aether pressure on the clock. Since you refuse to believe in the existence of aether you insist time changes. |
