Yes, and I think the same thing. Only... I would say, My Old Public Education, Very old as a matter of fact. http://www.vicphysics.org/documents/teachers/synchrotronprojectKB.doc Very good article. I may save that one and add it to my collection and web site. Always like to read anything about Einstein. I started a web page long ago about early scientists. I have a few files on Einstein. I read one short statement there that made me smile. The Algebra gets a little messy. I was an algebra student too. Made all A's on high school and college algebra without even trying. It was all simple country logic to me. grin Likely they have changed some things by now. It was so long ago, I may have forgotten a little. Want to see an interesting Calculation. . Try this one. Calculate the Unbalanced Neutral Current, in a 3 Phase Y. Just look at the formula ! I put that formula in the HP 15 C, but it used so much of the memory, I decided to take it out. I do not recall saying anything or disagreeing with the electron speed or the flow. Instead I was concerned about the resistance changes. Unless the scientists have changed all that, and updated Ohms Law, I thought I understood resistors as well as most.Likely I have seen more damaged, shorted, open circuited, smoked, burned up, than many will ever see. I still have to explain the dangers and hazards of the resistor and diode, when I am in the right mood and thinking clear, . it that ever happens. grin I do not plan to get into the electron flow. I can't see the electrons, but I can see the effect there of. That should be very interesting even to the non technicians.
