You will learn how to algebraically solve sqrt(a) + sqrt(b) = sqrt(a) * sqrt(b)=c, sqrt(a) - sqrt(b) = sqrt(a) * sqrt(b)=c, sqrt(a) + sqrt(b) = sqrt(a) / sqrt(b)=c and sqrt(a) - sqrt(b) = sqrt(a) / sqrt(b)=c (whereby two operators are held neutral to each other between constants, rendering a "tipping point") and to graph the final a and b as x and y. You will also learn goal seeking to 2π for each above equation. This article has applicability to the Special Theory of Relativity because, just as E = mc^2, c = sqrt(E) / sqrt(m), which can be set equal in Neutral Operations to either sqrt(E)-sqrt(m) or sqrt(E)+sqrt(m), among other possibilities. Bear in mind all that is being proposed concerns a certain velocity, not a physical event. Were it to be put forth that E = mc^2 = m+c^2 and m+c^2 is the moment of tangence of mass and light speed squared, then a physical phenomenon has been shown to be realized by experimentation.

Steps

  5. Select cell range A37:B49 and either Insert Chart or use the Chart Wizard or the Ribbon and select Charts, All, Scatter, Smooth Lined Scatter. A new chart will appear atop your data. Move it to the right and position its upper left corner at about G26, and expand it rightwards and downwards by pulling on the bottom righthand corner when the cursor is over it and turns into a double headed arrow to about cell I54.
  6. Using Chart Layout, choose Axis and select No Vertical Axis and No Horizontal Axis, then Gridlines Horizontal none, Legend none.
  7. Double click in the Plot Area and do Fill medium purple; double click in the Chart Area and do Fill black; double click on the series line or plot line and do Line Weight 2.75 and Solid Color red, or whatever appeals to you. Make sure the series in the formula bar reads as follows: =SERIES(,'NeuOps sqrt(n)'!$A$37:$A$49,'NeuOps sqrt(n)'!$B$37:$B$49,1) and here is what the chart should look like:

c = sqrt(E)/sqrt(m) = sqrt(E) - sqrt(m)

  1. Enter to D60, sqrt(E)/sqrt(m) = sqrt(E) - sqrt(m)
  2. Enter to D61, sqrt(E)/sqrt(m) - sqrt(E)= sqrt(E) - sqrt(m) -sqrt(E)
  3. Enter to D62, sqrt(E)(1/sqrt(m) - 1) = -sqrt(m)
  4. Enter to D63, sqrt(E) = -sqrt(m)/(1/sqrt(m) - 1), and multiply by -1/-1 on the right to get:
  5. Enter to D64, sqrt(E) = sqrt(m)/(1 - 1/sqrt(m))
  6. Enter to A69, Light Speed mps (where mps = miles per second)
  7. Enter to A70, Miles/Second
  8. Enter to A71, =299792458/1609.34400000087 (i.e., light speed in meters/second / meters/mile), giving you the result of 186,282.39705112 (lights peed in miles/sec.)
  9. Enter to B70, E
  10. Enter to C70, m
  11. Enter to D70, sqrt(E)
  12. Enter to E70, sqrt(m)
  13. Enter to F70, sqrt(E)/sqrt(m)
  14. Enter to G70, sqrt(E) - sqrt(m)
  15. Enter to H70, Goal Seek to 0
  16. Enter to B71, =D71^2
  17. Enter to C71, 1 (as a preliminary guesstimate of mass m)
  18. Enter to D71 the formula, =E71/(1-(1/E71))
  19. Enter to E71 the formula, =SQRT(C71)
  20. Enter to F71 the formula, =D71/E71
  21. Enter to G71 the formula, =D71-E71
  22. Enter to H71 the formula, =A71-F71
  23. Goal seek on cell H71 to value 0 by changing the mass in cell C71. Your # of iterations in Set Preferences, Calculation should probably be about 500 with an accuracy to 15 decimal places. The answer you may well arrive at will not equal zero but be close enough, it will be 6.24 448 875 896 633E-06 (to 20 decimal places). That is the speed of light, c, in A71 = 186282.39705112, while the answer in F71 for sqrt(E)/sqrt(m) is almost equal to it, at 186282.397044876 miles/second. The mass you should get is 1.000 010 736 473 96
