This should lead to the simplified equation E=V*c²where E is the potential energy that can be released by a collapse of the bubble (assuming the bubble is empty) and V is the displaced body of the medium due to the existence of the bubble, equal to the volume of the bubble.
QuoteThis should lead to the simplified equation E=V*c²where E is the potential energy that can be released by a collapse of the bubble (assuming the bubble is empty) and V is the displaced body of the medium due to the existence of the bubble, equal to the volume of the bubble.Considering the ratio of mass to space is a marble to a football field how could a bubble expel a medium? Would it not e more likely that the medium is the super fluid?
edit: when you are asking how a bubble can expel a medium then we can just look at water. How do bubbles expel the medium there?
Wouldn't that only make sense if the bubble expelled the air? Air is still penetrating the bubble right? Can you describe the physical medium that cannot pass through the bubble?
well, we would indeed need some kind of force for this.And yes, the conclusion would be that medium is the superfluid that is displaced by mass (or by the connected force). Like it is with any object in a medium that displaces part of the medium, as with a bubble. Which is really just a "hole" in the medium that is maintained by a force (as can be seen with sonoluminescence where the sound waves are the force).But with the bubble we have a "volume-energy-equivalence
The recent oil-drop experiments, that have shown that Quantum Mechanics can be integrated into a model of a underlying superfluid substrate, can also mean that we can try to integrate E=mc² into a model of the behaviour of liquids.And this can be done by analysing how Sonoluminescence is created. With Sonoluminescence the collapse of artificially created bubbles (maintained by soundwaves) in a liquid medium leads to a release of potential energy that even produces light.So we can now assume that the energy released is directly proportional to the size of the collapsing bubble (equal to the displaced body of the medium due to the existence of the bubble), and depending on the properties of the medium. Those properties of the medium can be summarized in the speed of sound (squared) in the medium, because the speed of sound incorporates all the aspects of the medium that are relevant for a reaction to pressure disturbances, Compressibility and Density.As in c²= Bulk Modulus/Density, where the inverse of the Bulk Modulus gives the Compressibility.This should lead to the simplified equation E=V*c²where E is the potential energy that can be released by a collapse of the bubble (assuming the bubble is empty) and V is the displaced body of the medium due to the existence of the bubble, equal to the volume of the bubble.If we apply this to E=mc² we could assume that mass indicates the displaced body of the medium due to the existence of a bubble, which would have serious consequencies.
