Chapter 99 Shakes the foundation of physics!
When Ridgway said that Newton's laws of mechanics needed to be revised, everyone in the audience was stunned and speechless for a long time.
Correction?
Why correction?
Only when something is wrong does it need to be corrected!
Li Qiwei's implication is that Newton's laws of mechanics are wrong.
This is such an incredible statement.
If it weren’t for his identity, someone might have scolded him on the spot.
Even the quantum theory that came out at the time was only applicable to microscopic fields such as energy and photons.
The field of macroscopic motion of matter is still governed by Newton’s laws of mechanics, which are unbreakable and invulnerable.
However, now, the most genius in the field of physics today, the winner of the first Nobel Prize in Physics, has publicly declared that Newton was wrong.
For a time, the atmosphere in the venue was completely exploded.
Many people began to question and even criticize Li Qiwei's outspokenness and arrogance.
"Bruce Lee was dazzled by the honor. Did he think he was a god? The theory that has been proven for hundreds of years is wrong."
"Oh, my old man God, why do some people say that what I learned is wrong just after I graduated with a Ph.D.”
"What if, I mean what if, what if Bruce Lee proves that he is right? Have you ever thought about the impact this will have on the world of physics?"
"."
< br>Different from the shock and doubts of ordinary scholars, those physics big guys stared at Li Qiwei with bright eyes.
Xue Physics has reached their level, and there are very few things that can cause waves of mood.
Unless it is a major event that shakes the foundation of physics.
This has happened several times in the history of science.
In the 16th century, Copernicus' heliocentric theory shook the foundation of the "God's theory of creation".
In the 19th century, Darwin’s theory of evolution completely removed God from the altar.
The law of conservation of energy and the cell theory have fundamentally shaken the dominance of the mechanistic view of nature in the world of natural science.
Could something like this happen again in the early 20th century?
For a moment, the big guys were breathing rapidly and their faces were flushed with excitement.
Being lucky enough to participate in such an epoch-making event in my life is enough to have no regrets in my life.
However, all of these must have a prerequisite, that is, you must provide convincing proof.
Even Planck was skeptical of Li Qiwei's statement at this moment.
Because Newton's laws of mechanics are so perfect, so perfect that they seem to be the formulas written by the Creator.
He could not imagine how Newton could be wrong.
Although Li Qiwei was his disciple and confidant, Planck would not be emotional when it came to the future of physics.
When Li Qiwei publishes his paper, he will judge it with the most careful eyes.
Lorenz in the audience frowned. Unlike others, he keenly grasped the word "relative".
Isn’t this what he and Li Qiwei discussed at the London Quantum Conference before? Did the other party make any new discoveries?
Lorenz felt a little pain in his head, as if something most important had been taken away.
After hearing Li Qiwei’s words, Einstein’s blood rushed straight to the sky!
No words can describe his mood at this moment, he can't help but tremble.
From today on, Einstein is no longer an unknown person, but a well-known scholar who can discuss cutting-edge physics issues with the Nobel Prize winner in physics.
The paper on the First Dark Cloud, through frequent exchanges between him and Li Qiwei during this period, was almost taking shape, with only some formulas left to be derived.
He is confident that it will be published next year.
When the time comes, Einstein’s theory will not be a disadvantage to him in this Nobel Prize in Physics!
Roentgen, the Curies, Becquerel, Thomson and other big names all looked at the young people on the stage with smiles. They shook their heads slightly, feeling that the other party must be in trouble this time.
Wilson, Langevin, Laue and other younger generations sighed, Damn, it would be great if I could pretend like this once.
Eric, Savage, Oersted and other members of the Nobel Prize Committee in Physics looked at Li Qiwei in disbelief.
They did not expect that the person they elected would be such an arrogant and domineering young man.
In fact, their subtext is that they don’t know how high the sky is. Is this the character of a genius?
As for Haviland, he had a look of disdain, "Humph, he's just a sensationalist. It depends on how you end up."
The academicians of the Royal Academy of Sciences present all felt the same way. , the trembling from the soul seems to announce that the great age of physics is coming! Odner, president of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, had complicated eyes and could not help but laugh at himself.
Today I thought it was going to be a physics event, but I didn’t expect that it was about to turn into a fright.
He looked at the expressions of everyone in the hall, and they were all stunned and shocked.
But he had an intuition: physics was about to change.
Li Qiwei on the stage had a panoramic view of everyone's expressions, and he smiled softly.
This is the content of his thoughtful speech, revealing a little narrow information in advance to build momentum for next year's paper.
Looking now, it seems that the goal has been achieved easily.
But the shock caused seems to be too big. He is a little worried about how much shock it will cause in the physics world when the narrow phase is released.
At this time, Oudna had to come out to continue hosting. He said in a strange tone: "Ahem, Bruce Lee's speech was so wonderful."
"It was so wonderful that I I feel that I am too old to keep up with the times.”
“It is better to be young, never give in to authority, dare to think and try.”
"But being young means that you are more likely to make mistakes, so we still need us old guys to teach us some experience."
"Professor Planck, Professor Roentgen, forgive my rude words, let us teach these young people Let’s see a little color.”
Everyone was amused by Oudena’s humor, and he perfectly resolved the serious atmosphere in the hall.
Of course, only an old-timer like him is qualified to say this.
Next, Planck and Roentgen took the stage to give speeches respectively, but both of them did not forget to complain about Li Qiwei, saying that he had always been like this and asked for your forgiveness.
This made Li Qiwei very embarrassed and could only turn around and nod at everyone.
After the two of them finished, Odena regained his momentum and said: "Although physics is important, chemistry cannot be ignored."
"Let us warmly welcome the first Nobel Prize The winner of the Chemistry Prize, Professor Fantov, gave us a wonderful speech.”
The applause in the hall was louder than before, and everyone’s emotions were obviously aroused.
Fantov first said with a smile: "The three physicists just spoke very well, but I want to explain one thing."
"Research in cutting-edge physics is very close to the truth, but far away from human beings. It currently does not create substantial benefits for society."
"But although chemistry is separated from the truth by a layer of film, it is very far away from human beings." Recently, it can create countless wealth."
"Porcelain, dyes, chemicals, explosives, etc., chemistry has a more profound impact on all aspects of our lives than physics."
"Bruce said that he wanted to overturn Newton's theory, but in the field of chemistry, everyone can rest assured that Bruce will never be able to do something similar."
"Because chemistry studies the properties of matter itself, matter It’s impossible to change.”
"The laws of chemistry are the summary and induction of the properties of matter. As long as the properties remain unchanged, the laws remain unchanged."
"Everyone is welcome to learn chemistry, so that you don't have to worry about being denied by Bruce in the future."< br>
As soon as Fantov finished speaking, the hall instantly burst into laughter.
Scholars in the field of chemistry spared no effort in applauding.
Because people often say that the essence of chemistry is physics.
But there is one thing about chemistry that physics cannot solve, and that is the irregular motion of a large number of molecules and atoms. It is impossible to use equations to list the motion equations of every microscopic particle.
This phenomenon can be well described if Avogadro's law is used.
A large number of particles gather together, and qualitative changes may occur.
For example, how does consciousness arise? It cannot be explained by physical theory.
So, chemistry is not an appendage of physics, but another perspective and method for studying the world.
Fantov's speech made physicists no longer dare to underestimate chemistry.
Finally, the two lectures on physics and chemistry ended successfully with everyone’s unfinished expressions.
Everyone has reached a consensus, that is, the winner selected for the first Nobel Prize is absolutely worthy of the award and is convincing.
This is how word-of-mouth is built.
From now on, in the fields of physics and chemistry, the Nobel Prize will become the truly supreme existence.
Not because of its publicity, but the strength of the winners is the best proof.
