Sub;
This is a relatively short thread. Simply read each of the posts an you will see the answer to your question is there. The topic is basically M-theory made simple by stating the math in fundamental characteristic properties of motion.

Have you read any good science books lately?

Well done,we need more like you.

We get into "names" what do you call this next theory,strings,holograms, wavicles,waves,the fact is,that all the universal outworkings are lawfully going about their business,without needing,or in the slightest bit interested in whether we know or not!To me theyare all the same,whether it be a string, hologram,wave,wavicle,conscious energy,whatever you call it,it is operating nicely,thank you!You then get down to what we as individuals feel comfortable with,depending on our backgrounds and disciplines, if you are from a science background,then it is natural that you would seek answers from this sourse,etc,for me,coming from a undisciplined background,I suppose there is a tendancy to look in as many places as possible for ideas and answers.The reality of the universe is constant and eternal,we are just very much in the process of waking up from a very long slumber,and our trying to make sense of our "new found home"the unfolding process has begun,and will hopefully continue for along while to come.One day all theories will converge at a point of "Singularity"This will bring about the "Real Big Bang" of conscious understanding that we are all as one,and one as all?
kind regards michael.

What is the "flux" capacitor then??

Davidgow77, I will answer your question, but I am not sure just how it will be received. Every once in a while I make the observation that people are generally more interested in the bizarre and the ununderstandable. So when practical matters are presented, they generally view them with disdain, because they are not interesting enough.

Flux is known in the science of physics and especially the field of electronics as Reactance, denoted by the symbol X. Reactance is a form of resistance or impedence to current flow. In the case of a coil, such as a transformer coil or radio frequency coil the phase relationship between current flow and the voltage produced over that coil is such that current flow lags the voltage by a phase angle of 90 degrees. In the capacitor, the opposite is true, current leads the voltage. There is obviously a relationship between Reactance, flux, and hysteresis. I prepared a two page .pdf paper titled Application of Imaginary and Complex Numbers, which I posted in a response to the questions about imaginary numbers and their practical application. This post gives me the opportunity to redress the issue. It describes the calculation of the total voltage and the overall impedence of an electronic circuit containing any number of resistors, capacitors, and inductors by use of the imaginary number by way of a very understandable and simple explanation. A review of the imaginary number and how and why it represents the square root of -1 can be read in my first post in the "Mathematics->branches of mathematics->does imaginary exist?" discussion in the mathematics forum. Here is the link to the paper.

A fine textbook presentation of inductive reactance and capacitive reactance baudrunner. I think however DG was injecting a bit of British style humor into a somewhat serious atmosphere of M-theory. You however are changing the topic of the thread all together.

Dr. Brown's "Flux Capacitor" of the movie "Back to the Future" refers to the device controlling the time flux of the spacetime continuum.

I know that, I was just showing off! Sheesh...

Actually, as for the textbook representation, I've actualy done the lab work, measurement and subsequent calculation of Z and analyzed the scoping of I and V waveforms with respect to phase angle, to prove that the math is sound and very real and that that is the way that it is, textbooks notwithstanding. I was killing a couple of birds with one stone here, as well as giving a proper definition of what flux actually is in a round about way -ie. inductive reactance, nothing more, and that this actually has a great deal to do with string theory, for without this electro magnetic, hysterically based "friction" establishing reality we would not have the intuitive suggestion of it with reference to strings in these posts so I am really not changing the subject, am I? Beyond the math of eleven dimensions, and I agree that this math is highly speculative as to its suggestion that it has anything to do with reality, we are trying to establish a rational basis for the TOE, and if we find it necessary to talk about m-theory in whatever light, then so be it. I have chosed the light of the practical, that shines in the real world.

I have a small question. The question is probably bogus anyway...I'm 12, gimme a break...here's an Example: if you combine all the theories of the world(Some which have not yet been discovered) is that the Theory for Everything? Oh, and you know how sometimes you might lose something and you concentrate REALLY hard, and you can never find what you're looking for? Well, stop concentrating so hard and it will just slip, eventually. You'll find out, eventually.

Welcome to ToeQuest PP0711;
Your post does not seem to be that of a 12 year old but if you are, you are starting your future rather young. Allow time to enjoy your childhood while you develop your mind.

To reply to your question: If there where a way to separate the parts that are true from each theory, I'm sure we would be well on our way to a solution. However, who is there to say what parts are true?

String... or strand???

String often refers to a long strand of fibre in a ball... how long is a piece of string ... thats what mom always asked when I was a child...
Strand often refers to a piece of string... and suggests.... this continuousness piece of string... of a fine continuous fibre.... intertwine with others... like Dna... the answers lie within the encoded strands... 90% of which have not yet been discovered..... the answers lie within.... we just have to be conscious of its presence with us to know what it is....

Whatever is... 'string theory or no theory'.... it will be whatever you 'think it to be'...

Is flux this complicated. I thought flux was just the spatial densty of a field.

Quite right Mohan; Some people prefer to say what something is by presenting its properties and effects. It's like saying "you are a human" is a simple definition. Others may say you are a high school student 5 ft 6 in tall and weighing 145 lbs., and go on to state your eye color, hair color, clothing and so on. The thing is; how detailed of a description is appropriate or enough? The more detail, the more complexity.
