Christ Graham, don't get Chris started on physics and maths. We'll never see the end of this thread.

But 0 is no speed - it's only 0. What is above 0 and and slowly enough:confused: I once heared an answer that fascinated me - speed is relative to you. So the answer was 'your body'. And that's true;P I never moved in front or bhind my body:laugh: But 0 - thats too simple in my mind

Hallo Chris, I used the google-dictionary to trnslate 'velocity'. And I got'Einlaufgeschwindigekteit'what means the speed, you inject a liquid to someones ass. Hope, that was not ment:laugh:

But I like this discussions with him (sorry, I only had it onde before, but it was very amusing). And for me, his postings are very interesting;)

True, but Chris is a maths tragic and once wound up is like the energiser bunny, he never stops.

And I,m realy glad, that you recogniced, I'm not from Germany. That is imprtant for us (you can't understand, but it is) So :rose::rose::rose: to you!!!

Albert Einstein had a thought that if you traveled backwards away from a clock faster then light speed you would actually be going back in time as the clock would turn backwards. The same thing is applied to if you see farther into the universe you are actually seeing further back in time as light takes time to travel. So if you equate going back in time to going a negitive velocity in terms of space time, then actually going a faster speed then the speed of light would be slowest. E=mc2 -> BOOM

Speed or velocity? (Lowest velocity is -c. Lowest speed is 0) cheers, Chris Maunder

Hi Chris, Since speed is distance over time, shouldn't the lowest speed be the Planck length over the Planck time? Ivor S. Sargoytchev Dundas Software -- modified at 16:27 Saturday 24th June, 2006

-c is c in the opposite direction. :)

Relatively speaking, of course. You can't make sweeping generalizations about space and time at those speeds, because you will always find equally correct views of the universe, which contradicts eachother. :)

No - it doesn't work like that :) Heisenberg's principle (in part) means dx.dp >= h_bar/2, where dx is uncertainty in position and dp is uncertainty in momentum. If we assume a unit mass then we have dx.dv >=h_bar/2. => dv >= h_bar/(2.dx) (h_bar = planck's constant / pi) So the bigger your uncertainty in exactly where you are, the less your uncertainty about your velocity. So you can say the velocity of an object is as close to 0 as you want. You just have no idea where you left it. cheers, Chris Maunder
