Did your physics professor say “velocity == speed”? Because if so, yes he was

According to this physics website you’re wrong
An object is accelerating if it is changing its velocity.
Velocity =/= speed
A change in direction is a change in velocity

Here’s a new clearer statement to express my thoughts on the matter.
Contrails are visible and normal and fine. I probably don’t fully understand the science behind them, but I realize what we are seeing is water vapor.
Chemtrails are also real though. They are invisible to the naked eye and are directly contributing to global warming as well as some health concerns that are hard to quantify. They are not some conspiracy to control or disable the masses. The exhaust of cars and especially planes leave a trail of harmful chemicals behind them. The reason for this is because we care more about convenience and money than we do about the ecosystem we live in.
I personally believe pointing out that dichotomy is more useful than laughing at people who are misinformed.
Just because the contrails are science
I understand that part, doesn’t stop them from containing the plane exhaust which is directly contributing to global warming
Nah, plane exhaust is real and killing the planet. Just because the contrails are science and not doing mind control doesn’t mean they’re not still bad.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Everyone uses 4d chess as the example of more intense gambits when 3d chess should suffice because chess is a 2d game
2·8 months agoSpace and time are not the same thing, they are facets of spacetime. We are only able to traverse space because we can properly perceive it, we do not have the ability to traverse time. I obviously understand the movie is fiction, it’s still a decent attempt at showing what it might be like to be able to truly perceive and traverse time. Our way to understand it (as depicted in Arrival) is the ability to actually see and experience the past and the future. You and I and no being we know about has the ability to see anything except the present.
As an example, the screen you are reading this on presents a 2d image. It does not have the ability to produce a 3d image (though we can make illusions that seem like it sometimes). That screen is constantly moving through 3d space (on spaceship Earth), but you still wouldn’t say that it’s presenting a 3d image because it doesn’t have the ability to directly interact with that space. Just like how we are moving through time but don’t have the ability to directly interact with that spacetime.

2·8 months agoNo we don’t, we perceive the present. We perceive length width and height, and have the ability to traverse that space. We don’t have currently have the ability to experience anything other than the current moment. Have you seen the movie Arrival? That’s an attempt to show what truly perceiving time would be like.

69·8 months agoIt’s pretty funny that most of the time we have to wait years, often not until the next term, to feel the economic impact of a president, but Trump knows how to make shit happen immediately
Not dividing the left, just consolidating the right
I would like to do that, but my comments on negative topics definitely produce more discussion. Just like everywhere else, negative is easier than positive.
Initially I was in the “shut up, there’s multiple instances that the news could be posted to” crowd, but then I noticed that it’s been posted to !world@lemmy.world like 20 times and I wanted to come back and apologize. Guys, please check the comm before posting the article.
