So, we can only know a 'observable' portion of the universe, but surely that its not all there is to it (there is surely matter or something beyond it)

What if everything beyond that observable portion, has insanely weird physic properties, and stuff behave weird?

Lets say there are other life forms with consciousness, putting together our observable universe portions, that would be the 'stable' parts of the universe.

What I'm trying to say is, what if quantum wavefunction collapse isn't just caused by observation, but every wavefunction collapses if its within reach of the observable universe of any observer.

So, the ordering, physics and behaviors of the universe we know, is the product of whatever the first conscious type of life within our observable universe existed causing a wavefunction collapse to a single state.

While that conscious life form (species) existed, somewhere else within the first life form observable universe, a new conscious life form appeared, existing in a portion of the universe with the same physics, and behaviors that the first life form viewed.

Hey guys I'm sure this has been posted here before, hell it might have even originated here. But is the equation in this pic a trick question that's actually relatively simply and only made to look complicated; or is it truly hard and something that would take like a page and a half of work to figure out?

Hi guys :3

The answer to "why" does "x and y" do "z" in particle physics (as well as in everything) is actually always the same (fundementally).

It is energically favorible, ie, it minimizes the Lagragian. Everything that ever happens, must minimize the Lagragian.

Meaning: If x and y come into contact, and the difference between the "energy they have" and the " the energy they could have", can be made as small as possible if they do "z", then they will do "z". That is a fundemental law of the universe. It explains why particles annihilate, as well as why a balls rolls down a hill.

I mean I can try and relate it in terms of other physics concepts, if you specify the concepts. However, fundementally the answer will always be the same.

You should be able to solve this.

Well, let's see.

>It still takes hours to write out any meaningful theory
It's also important to remember

For these reasons, I would suggest this person would be VERY productive, but at the same point not idolized to the status of a god.
OP, the person you're describing is Isaac Newton.

What?
I've never heard of this. Moreover, that doesn't even make sense.

Sup, /sci/. /ɐ/ here. Please take a look at our pic.

So? Can /sci/ solve it?

OP here, I honestly don't know. It looks like a form of the Schrödinger equation, but I don't know which specifically.

I've only taken university freshman physics, so yeah.
