Quantum Inertia and New Physics - Interview with Mike McCulloch
Offered By: Unzicker's Real Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore quantum inertia and its implications in physics through this 51-minute talk featuring Mike McCulloch. Delve into the mystery of inertia, drawing inspiration from ocean physics, and understand the explanation of inertial mass through Quantised Inertia (QI). Examine the EPR paradox, the central formula for QI inertia, and how QI provides a reason for Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MoND) with different predictions and uses. Investigate the connection between QI, gravity, and the uncertainty principle, and learn how QI eliminates the gravitational constant G. Discover practical applications, including DARPA research and the GPS anomaly. Consider the potential dangers of a new dark age and the significance of anomalies versus coincidences in scientific research.
