New Theories / Re: Do mechanical vibrations of atoms expend energy?
« on: Today at 05:54:13 »
Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on Today at 05:21:45
I would say the north arctic is like a chimney for heat to escape into space.

It sounds like you are mistaking "north" for "up". Heat rises, but it rises against gravity, not towards the north pole.

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on Today at 05:21:45
So what's your answer as to where all the heat from burning goes?

It goes into the environment causing it to warm (very, very slightly).

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on Today at 05:21:45
or you think its irrelevant?

Compared to the heating caused by greenhouse gases? Yes.

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on Today at 05:21:45
though it is a fraction of the heat from the sun, how can you rule it out when its directly going into the atmosphere as heat?

I showed why with the math.

Plant Sciences, Zoology & Evolution / Re: Has natural selection been nullified in humans ?
« on: Today at 01:08:44 »
Natural selection still has plenty of sway in human development: disease and accidents are still a big killer in all countries.

I wouldn't be surprised if the incidences of some diseases has increased because of advanced medical treatments. Those with weaker immune systems are more able to survive and pass on their genes in developed countries nowadays.

My stance is that the aether doesn't exist at all.
why does an aether have to exist for my temperature theory to be true?

Because you said that it involved the aether.
No pope. I just call it the aether because you people are so high strung on semantics. call it what you want, you still aren't going to find anything in the universe without tempetature?

Words have particular definitions. If you are using a word in a way that goes against its traditional definition, you can end up causing confusion. So if what you are talking about isn't aether, then you probably shouldn't call it aether.

Well Kryptid instead of a 24 hr direct current through the atmosphere of heat building in the north arctic, putting the heat into water and distributing it evenly through the oceans would at least cut down on the melting of the NORTH which I think is probably most important? Also I imagine the ocean would have to raise in temperature enough for the heat to be absorbed considerably or at least a portion of it back into the atmosphere? Water is denser then air and will absorb more energy?

Your argument hinges on heat from man-made sources being the primary cause for global warming. It isn't, as the math I did shows.

New Theories / Re: What causes the human tailbone to wag/Dizzyness?

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on Yesterday at 06:07:48
Also another trick that's vital to using your tailbone without going into a rabbit hole. While starring at something pay attention to something in your peripheral, after a second the object might wobble, you can change the wobbling to a general wobble of your vision by not focusing on anything, or you can use thought to ask about a specific object like 'what's in that?' and that object alone will wobble. The wobbling can sometimes originate from the center of the forehead effecting the vision. People talk to me about chakra's?
Why do you persist in posting this idiotic nonsense?

Please don't call posts idiotic. It's inflammatory. You can feel free to point out problems with the reasoning, but try not to sound insulting in the process.

So the sun's heat keeps earth a steady temperature, then burning of fossil fuels is adding the heat moment to moment that is causing a warm up.

Only by an incredibly small amount (about 0.01% of the heat that the Sun is contributing).

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on 06/06/2023 20:23:17
Although the sun rains down a lot more heat then we are burning, without the sun it would probably be damn cold

Right.

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on 06/06/2023 20:23:17
hence the large amounts of heat from the sun is not damaging

Depends. It certainly can be damaging in hot, dry areas of the world.

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on 06/06/2023 20:23:17
heat from burning fuels is?

The math I just did suggests otherwise.

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on 06/06/2023 20:23:17
Water would hold onto the heat longer and release it slower. Thermal conductivity between the hot water and the ground might heat up the earth below a pool of hot water faster then the at least a portion of the heat that will enter the atmosphere?

The ground where you injected the water would continue to heat up until it reached an equilibrium. So if you are pulling a megawatt of waste heat from a powerplant, the ground where you are injecting the water will eventually start releasing heat at a rate of one megawatt anyway. I see no advantage to doing this.

instead of using air to release the pressure, just spray water into the piston and drain the water.

What are you going to do with the hot water afterwards?

But a substance can have no color, no taste, not make a sound, but it has to have a temperature?How does something with no temperature exist?

What substance are you talking about? My stance is that the aether doesn't exist at all.

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on 06/06/2023 01:35:32
The structure of the nucleus and its innate heat that gives it a constant temperature determines qualities the substance has?

Not really. The electronic structure of the atom determines most of that.

Alright how if greenhouse gasses are evenly distributed in the atmosphere, how and why is the heating mostly occurring over the north pole?

What's your source for that claim?

Well call it the aether or what have you, but what do you guys think of the idea of the temperature the aether retracting the magnetic field extending from the shell, back into the shell?

I think most of us would say that the aether probably doesn't exist and that its existence isn't needed to explain what we see in physics.

This is why I asked if oscillations of the atom's in the hot water release energy. I guess the question is when you pour boiling water on the ground does 100% of the heat re-enter the atmosphere? or does it dissipate downwards? into the denser cooler earth?

It will eventually end up in both the Earth and the Earth's atmosphere. Heat spreads until it finds an equilibrium.

As for your idea of heat released from powerplants causing the Earth to heat up, let's take a look at the numbers. The Earth receives more solar energy from the Sun in a single hour (173,000 terawatt-hours) than humanity consumed in an entire year (160,000 terawatt-hours in 2017: https://explainingscience.org/2019/03/09/solar-energy/

To find out how much energy the Earth receives from the Sun in a year, we multiply that number by 24 hours in a day, times 365.25 days in a year to get 1,516,518,000 terawatt-hours. So humanity's energy consumption in 2017 was only 0.0105% of the total solar energy reaching Earth. This means that the amount of heat we are adding to the environment is on about the same order of magnitude, about 0.0105% of how much the Sun is already heating the Earth up (or less, since solar energy itself already accounts for some of humanity's energy consumption).

The Earth's temperature has warmed by about 1 degree Kelvin since the late 1800's. Since the Earth's average surface temperature is around 288 kelvins, that means the Earth's average surface temperature has increased by about 0.35% over the last century or so. That's a temperature increase of more than 30 times what can be explained by humanity's heat emissions alone. So we know something else is the primary driver.

I don't understand. Why would atomic nuclei suddenly expand? What would cause that? And why do you use "sand" to describe it? Also, what is "the word" you are talking about?

New Theories / Re: Do mechanical vibrations of atoms expend energy?
« on: 05/06/2023 08:02:06 »
If you don't have evidence to support it, that would just make it a hypothesis, not a theory.

Also, what would you do with the water in the smoke stacks once it absorbed the heat? Remember, heat can't be destroyed.

It's my opinion that it doesn't matter so much the greenhouse gasses that are causing a warm up, but rather the way we burn fuels, pouring a could amount of heat straight into the air.

Do you have some math to support that?

If I recall correctly, you were talking about using fusion to do this. A fusion powerplant isn't going to be hurting the atmosphere anyway.
Ah yes! I totally forgot about lasers.

Lasers? What are you talking about?

If the atoms are not in thermal equilibrium with their environment, then yes, their vibrations will cause them to lose energy over time.

Could be that the sun is wrong and more colors would be appropriate, making you wrong,wrong again, making the sun mad.

This is exactly the kind of spam that got you banned the last time. If I observe that you haven't really changed your ways, you'll get banned again. Please act more maturely when other members disagree with you.

Anyhoo when light falls into the gravity field of the nucleus, it presumably blue shifts going in and red shifts going out.

The gravity of a single atomic nucleus would be so incredibly tiny that I don't think red shift and blue shift would even be detectable with our best instruments.

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on 31/05/2023 20:39:51
The speed of light is thought to be a result of the background temperature of the aether.

Can you give a citation for this?

Quote from: trevorjohnson32 on 31/05/2023 20:39:51
But as light cools off it continues at the same speed?

Light doesn't have a temperature. Temperature is a quantity of bulk systems such as a collection of atoms.
