Document Summary
When you pass waves through two slits you would see interference, constructive and destructive. For a very short period of time you can control energy (borrow) Creation of mass e=mc2 gives some energy, more can be created. When you create mass from energy, you make anti-particles that collide and destroy each other giving energy off. Lasers, transistors, accuracy of atomic clocks (quantum noise) Light can act as a particle and wave, light travels in packets of energy called photons Photons have no mass by have momentum and energy. Einstein"s special theory of relativity does not include gravity. All laws of nature are the same for observers moving in an. Makes the curvature of space a physical variable describing gravity. When the spaceship is accelerating it seems like there is a gravitational force. We see the bottom of the spaceship accelerating to meet the ball. We as observers say that the rocket is accelerating up to meet the ball.
