The spring oscillator will oscillate the same way sideways. Moreover, it will oscillate the same frequency out in space, far away from the earth. Note too the mass spectrometer.

Your "amount of matter" definition for mass when applied to the celestial universe and to the atomic universe is like talking about apples and oranges. And even in the classical planet surface case where it is at least proportional with respect to surface planet atoms and our mathematics, mass is not an "amount of matter". Mass is the quantification of the resistance of an amount of matter. An atom is an amount of matter. Mass is the measure of an atom's resistance, or group of atoms resistance. The only justification we have for generalizing planet surface object mass to the celestial universe rests on Newton's written statement that "Since it is true for all the matter that we can measure it is true for all matter whatsoever." paraphrased. This is the 21st century, not the 17th. Have a good time jr..

No need to keep reasserting it.

With your particle mentality you define matter in terms of matter. Like the universe is based on fundmental bricks, more fiundamental than the atom itself. Atoms repesent stable and near stable forms of matter. Building stable forms of matter from unstable particles of matter is a pandora's box limited only by our capacity to create smaller and smaller atomic shards with our colliders. Destroying a stable electro-magnetic element into unstable pieces of garbage and reconstructing the atom using the shattered pieces of rubble is pitiful cowboy. But you stay on it. jr

The language of physics is math, a language that you clearly don't understand. |
