Remember, F=ma helps us realize the connection between mass, acceleration (change in velocity) and force.
So, technically this could be a possibility.
FOXNews.com – What’s Faster Than Light?: “While nothing with mass can move faster than the speed of light, scientists now think some weird, faster-than-light currents may be the powerhouse for fast-spinning stars.
The idea may sound heretical to one of most deeply held tenets in physics, which states that the speed of light is the ultimate speed limit. But the new proposal squeaks by on a loophole in that rule, which insists only that no mass or information exceeds the speed limit.”
I’m still skeptical.
We’ll discuss more in class tomorrow.
