Is it time to give up newton's mechanics?

>> No.12741007

>>12741001
Yes. Things started going shit when we forgot sun and moon are gods and not "objects" falling towards earth.

How is gravity being simultaneously a force and a spacetime distorsion supposed to work?

Based, we should have killed Anaxagoras and all his followers instead of just exiling him.

>>12741001
nope, still useful as hell in all of classical physics (which is where mots engineering resides). just know the limits of applicability for it and its all good.
>>12741037
newtons mechanics is much more than just the law of gravity

i don't want to use Riemann geometry when all i want to do is fucking calculate the power or acceleration. relativity is literally useless

>> No.12741828

>>12741001
Yeah, buildings, bridges, cars and all of that stuff is completely useless.

>> No.12741845

>>12741001
no, do you know what you're talking about?

Newton's mechanics are the ones of the only things holding properly.

Relativity theory is garbage.

Yes, go ahead and calculate a ballistic trajectory as a geodesic line on a curved metric. Let's see how long that takes you.

>> No.12743499

>>12741037
It appears as a force when you're working in a flat coordinate system and only in the limit of small mass (you only start seeing Newtonian gravity fail at solar scales with stuff like Mercury's precession).

You're either bad at baiting or incredibly stupid,
