The great Einstein relativity hoax and other science questions, hypotheses and improbabilities / by Truitt, Page,author.;
This little book is packed with unconventional, easy to read, non-mathematical explanations of a variety of physical phenomena ranging from the appearance and properties of electrons to the construction of matter from particles and energy fields. Entire chapters are devoted to explanations of the creation of electricity by moving electrons and the production of light by oscillating electrons. The mechanisms of reflection and refraction are described in detail. An entire section is devoted to various kinds of relative motion leading up to a full, detailed explanation of Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity and its associated problems. Another entire section presents the theoretical physics of atomic and molecular construction by the universal energy field. Have you ever wondered what "charge" is or why electrons don't repel parts of themselves or spiral into the atomic nucleus? Why must particles accelerate and oscillate to produce the volleys of tiny pulses which make up light. Why don't moving electromagnetic fields have north and south poles or positive and negative charge? How does light reflect from itself? Why does it refract when it goes through transparent media? Why are there four leads in some house wires and only three in others? Why is your car battery attached to the body of the car? If you are traveling down the highway at 60mph, is the highway moving in the opposite direction at 60mph? Do objects contract in the direction of their motion and does time "slow down" at very fast speeds? Why do atoms attract to form molecules when they only present the negative fields of their electrons to each other? These and many other questions are answered, often in unconventional ways while other questions are raised which can't be answered at all. Anyone who needs a science or research project idea or even an idea for a doctorate thesis can surely find many possibilities in this little book.
