DanielZimmer Posted January 28, 2022 Report Posted January 28, 2022 Mass times acceleration is the derivative of kinetic energy. It’s not anything else. They say that force is mass times acceleration. That’s wrong. Force was invented by Isaac Newton. Newton never heard of energy. Newton didn’t know what he was doing.

HallxofIvy Posted April 19, 2022 Report Posted April 19, 2022 Was this posted as a joke? if so it's not a very good joke, if not, it's just pathetic. Newton certainly wrote about energy! Yes, mass times energy is the derivative of energy. But that can be given a name! Why not name it "force"? Basically you have worked hard to find a more complicated way to say what Newton said very simply. Dubbelosix 1 Quote
Dubbelosix Posted February 27, 2023 Report Posted February 27, 2023 (edited) Force is not fake. I held hope this was a reference to gravity not being a force, which it isn't from first principles of GR in which gravity is a pseudoforce But it isn't... Halls is right this is either a joke or a poor understanding of physics. Edited February 27, 2023 by Dubbelosix Quote
