/sci/ - Science & Math

I have a quick question...

Imagine an object that weights 20 Newtons at the surface of a planet, right before it collapses gravitationally. If the planet collapses to 1/5th of its initial radius... How much would that same object weight now in the new planet's surface if it has the same mass?

I can't figure it out, it's due for tomorrow. Can someone explain it to me please?

Society once suffered from ignorant superstition; today it
suffers from ignorant skepticism. When people are confronted
with a challenging view, most see only that it differs from their
own, and so they dismiss higher truths beyond their recognition as
quickly as they would those obvious delusions beneath their
threshold of gullibility. Higher knowledge is therefore fringe
knowledge because those who pursue it have been alienated to the
fringes of society. These fringe truth seekers follow their hearts and
open their minds, having placed more importance on the liberation
of their souls than the conventions of society.

Fuck your science,
I prefer the truth.

"There is far more to this world than taught in our schools, shown in the media, or proclaimed by the church and state. Most of mankind lives in a hypnotic trance, taking to be reality what is instead a twisted simulacrum of reality, a collective dream in which values are inverted, lies are taken as truth, and tyranny is accepted as security. They enjoy their ignorance and cling tightly to the misery that gives them identity. Science and religion are cancerous to humanity, it puts blocks and limitations upon the mind, and dictates how you perceive reality."

What does /sci/ think of this statement?

"We have numerous, extremely naïve assumptions built into our thinking, and our most venerable explanatory engines, such as science, happen also to be our oldest explanatory engines, and therefore they have built into them the most naïve and unexamined assumptions."

"Who is to say what is real and what is not? "Real" is a distinction of a naïve mind, I think. We're getting beyond that."

"Nature is not simply the random flight of atoms through electromagnetic fields. Nature is not the empty, despiritualized lumpen matter that we inherit from modern physics. But it is instead a kind of intelligence, a kind of mind."

Hey /sci/ here's an interesting question: what is the biggest known planet and how big can planet be. I'm not thinking about our solar system but whole space. Give me your suggestions.

I just thought of something right now, I might sound like a total fucking idiot but here it goes. Speed = Distance/Time, Now time is relative, couldn't this mean speed is relative, or is this just something I missed in school.
