| A Defect in Mach's Principle *Mach's principle submits that in an isolated space (bereft of any but one entity) an object would have no negative inertia The fields from isolated, individual charges look like this: Whereas, in context of Matter in 4-D expansion, the defect in Mach's principle is that an isolated positive charge is confined to it's location - exhibiting negative inertia (a tendency to remain at rest; resisting outside forces) - by the recoil of - it's own, inherent - omnidirectionally expanding electrical energy. The isolated negative charge is confined to its location - also exhibting negative inertia (a resistance to outside forces) by the omnidirectional influx of electrical energy. These are the causes of negative inertia. - RP http://forums.delphiforums.com/EinsteinGroupie ______________________________ *The core of "Mach's Principle" is something like this: the inertia of a body is determined in relation to all other bodies in the universe (in short, "matter there governs inertia here". Mach's principle does not compensate for the omnidirectional expansion of all matter from it's center.
