      @@haalandfilms1695 I often heard people say there is a difference between being smart and being intelligent. The distinction they make is that smart people know a lot and intelligence means a lot more. I was never really completely with that because if you know a lot there are certainly neural differences in your brain, but do you deserve that pride when people call you smart for that reason? And if you know a lot of misinformation, are you smart? Because there are still the same differences in your brain, but you are certainly not seen as smart if you know a lot of misinformation. Then I came to the conclusion that only one thing can exist, intelligence, as an evolutionary mechanism. And IQ scores are very black and white because they treat intelligence as something fixed, not something that exists on the principle of relationship.

      Well, like Dr. Kaku said, Einstein constructed a theory about the mechanics of bodies moving at a certain velocity. Just assuming 2 fundamental facts (Einstein proposed them) you can do calculations to find how time behaves between different perspectives (what we call reference frames). And dilation happens not only to time but to objects, just think about it: everytime you move on a car everything around the car is compressed in that direction (clearly at low speeds that's imperceptible).

    • @vincejohnm
      @vincejohnm Před rokem +8

      Read about the Lorentz transformation. Mathematically, that’s how Einstein did it. If the speed of light is constant for all observers, then time and distance must be variable. Distances literally shrink and time literally ticks slower the faster you move as to not break this fundamental speed of light barrier. The answer is the Lorentz transformation.

      Fun fact: The cape question is an issue of the medium: comic books. It's hard to show motion with a static medium. If Superman is flying, you have to give the reader a sense of movement. Based on everyday logic, he'd look like he's falling. But the cape gives the reader more information. If he was falling, the cape would trail above him, if he's jumping up, below him, and if he's flying, it's trailing ehind him. Optical cues like these are possible with light-weight fabric, and a cape was already the garment f choice for some other heroes, so they decided to use that for Superman, too.

    My favorite physicist is Rudolf Clausius. He was the thermodynamicist who basically formed the idea of entropy, but he is barely known. So everything he did and was, makes him my favorite physicist across all dimensions.
