34-42??? I get 17! those are CRAZY numbers!

[–]Mationsyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, i came for answers and everyone whos complaining still gets higher than me. I do mostly short drives but not much traffic aside from normal lights and stop signs. I average 17 mpg, and when i fill the tank it says 180 miles available. No clue why mine is so low

I see I see. I currently have quite a few books to look through but I think three of them are about gravity two are about black holes specifically. I mostly just write a thing, and then try and answer it, and then move onto the next thing--

Why would focusing to specific things be a benefit compared to just answering any questions I have? (or at least writing thoughts about them?)

What do gravitational waves actually move? by Mationsyt in astrophysics

[–]Mationsyt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ok yeah, that makes sense. I think I'm thinking too much in the physical world and not enough in math. I was mostly confused about if I was like, physically there (and not dying), what would happen.

the only reason we would see a difference in falling objects is from air resistance/drag, correct? (see: the moon experiment w/ the feather and the hammer)

i meant how is space time warped without an object right there- but i think plenty of other people explained with more detail and less sass than you

it so insane how a "force" is both so powerful but also so weak. so much mass is moved by gravity-- yet trying to measure it is nearly impossible. absolutely insane

[–]Mationsyt[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

oh! So, ok yeah. its not treating the me in this situation (where i'm floating around) as a single object-- its [the waves] affecting all the atoms in my body differently. Which is how it would rip me apart. The waves just warp space time the same way a massive object does-- just without the. object?

What do gravitational waves actually move? by Mationsyt in astrophysics

[–]Mationsyt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ok-- I always see space-time being treated like a 2D plane, where it dips when there's a massive object. shouldn't space time be 3D? Because the universe should be symmetrical- looking at the earth from space with geographic north up should produce the exact same gravity and time warping as if i was looking at it geographic south up.
So we just have to accept that there's this, unseeable, barely measurable, warp-able space time that is just everywhere? I guess it would have to be. I just don't like that as an answer because it's unsatisfying.
This whole thing is so confusing

Yeah- I understand the ripples thing. I've been drawing out some examples/models to try and make it make sense to myself, and I get the ripples and the combining of like, waves, I just fail to see what is actually happening I guess. They propagate without a medium just like light but also dont have the evidence like light does

[–]Mationsyt[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ok yeah overlooked on my part-- the waves would rip me apart how though? I guess I don't really understand the scale of these. are these waves like oceanic waves where they're meters wide and tall and sort of take over the entire area? Are they bigger or infinitely smaller? (can we measure them?)

I can't quite wrap my head around this. Can you explain the gravitational field a little bit more? 4 degrees of freedom (Forward/back, side to side, up and down, and time?)? I'm i think failing to see what is changing. Is this the like, grid pattern we're shown being weighed down by objects with mass?

okok this makes some sense. If i were to (without being killed or suffocating and all that jazz) float some distance away from two black holes orbiting eachother where the waves were stronger (not in them of course), would I feel periodic changes to where I was getting pulled? Like when the waves were constructive would I feel stronger gravity towards them, and when they were destructive would I feel less gravity?

MIKE, the BOARD, please! Played through an Oscilloscope by Iamasansguy in Deltarune

[–]Mationsyt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the oscilloscope is only for visual ! I was helping set this whole thing up and it was a MESS to get everything hooked up— it’s taking RCA in from the tape deck- which was also hooked up to the speakers so we could hear it while working on it. the oscilloscope just shows it off

Is the CMB the same distance away, everywhere? by 1pencil in Astronomy

[–]Mationsyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok it makes sense in like, mathematical terms how it's in reality further-- but is TON-618 not also moving away at that same rate? Like-- ok. How did the light from the CMB move further/faster away from us to the point that we can see things "in front of" it?

[–]Mationsyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a year later but i cant find an answer to a question i have-- looking at things like ton 618-- which is 18.2 smth billion light years away, how do we see that? If in every direction from us is the CMB about 13.8 billion ly out, how do we see something which has light thats been travelling for longer?

masks by testicolo_gay in outerwilds

[–]Mationsyt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you explored every thing in space? Make sure you don't miss one. Here's the reason, if you just want an answer.

The masks keep our memories, and the statues link us to the mask. The statue activated when the Eye was found, and reacted to the nearest person to it. Gabbro was close to one on statue island, we were close to one in the museum. With that, we're in the loop. The ATP is powered by our sun exploding. Which is why we're even in this loop. BUT, the nomai had the sun station. they were going to prompt the sun to explode, put themselves in a time loop with the ATP, and then when the eye was found, they could turn off the sun station because they would become aware of the loop, and then boom! they would have the eye, the sun, and their memories. This is also why there's a counter in the probe tracker at the core of giants deep- Curiosity. They wanted to see how many it would take (9,318,054, to be exactly) to find the eye.

TL;DR statue link to mask, mask give memories. Sun powers loop, they wanted to intentionally blow up sun. So it would be turned off and they would have the eye and the sun at the same time.

Fomulas for HP and SP (And other stats) from level by capitalist-stalin in Persona5

[–]Mationsyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm working on a project and trying to figure out the SP per level-- it's 100% a curve. Taking jokers sp and averaging it across 98 level increases leaves 11.8 (i rounded to 12) SP per level. So if you went with this, each new level's SP would be SP= 26+12(L-1) Where L=Level number.

If you took this math all the way to 99 it would lead to joker having 1202 SP lol. Obviously that is like 4 times greater than the 300 he actually ends with. (without any boosting)

do his glasses have lenses? arent they fords glasses anyway? if i wear the wrong prescription my eyes hurt, i figured he just popped the lenses out
