Woo, Avenue Q!

[xox.happy1.xox]

Lol, I second maths, Ninwa.

How there was nothing before the big bang, just darkness. I get headaches when I think about it for too long.

there wasn't even darkness =p

Quantum Mechanics..well, no one understands this haha.

Oh yes, that reminds me of something i've never understood.

does ANYBODY understand quantum theory?

Quantum is just another definition for a certain amount of energy a photon carries.
I guess since we studied this in unit 4, quantum physics is a more detailed study of light and matter. I am not exactly sure though.

[vcestar]

I still dont understand the concept of time, like wat was there b4 everything existed? And when will it ever end?
Does the universe go forever? If so how? If not wats on the other side? LOL.

Physics

I second that. Gave up on it ever since in year10, I got full marks on the biology and chemistry unit tests, and got a C+ on the physics one, hence explaining my broken asian 5 subject set :]

Doesn't specialist have a bit of physics? You do pretty well in that though, right?

I never understood why so many random threads are being created And so the "recent posts" box is filled with this thread. I wish it could be bigger or filter out stuff

that is one aspect of it.. it deals with describing systems (nature) on an atomic level. AFAIK

Remember he went to MHS, the tests there are like extremely hard, he wud have gotten atleast A anywhere else. Besides, when he says he is crap at physics, its just for his standards like (not get a 50) which makes it "crap".

I don't understand how fast the speed of light is? How can it be the fastest organism in the universe?

Wow, it took me so long to post this. :S

Yeh it was probably one of my strongest sections by the end actually..took me a while to get the hang of it but.

Light isn't an organism =P

Lol, but nevertheless, my somewhat distorted question still stands.

WAt are u on about??? I dont get your questions

The speed of light is 3*10^8 metres per second. And light is not an organism.

Hmm this brings me to the question: What are photons? Like literally, what are they?

They are particles and are just "packets of energy".
