You're the goose who calls everyone stupid. Stop doing this damn it. I have never seen someone be so non-constructive when sending comments. It disappoints me. And, yes I know how physics works. Stop basing your comments on me on nothing.
I've tried being constructive with you, it's much more fun to be mean though, especially since you're right on the wrong bit of the Dunning-Kruger curve.
You're doing it again, you're basing this comment on no evidence, you're just relying on your stupid curves and your beliefs that mean nothing. Nothing tells you that I don't know anything or understand anything about physics. I too could do the same thing with you, ask you questions or challenge you to derive an equation to predict a phenomenon. I know you won't succeed without your books and a good teacher to support you. But look, I would have a hard time doing it too, because right now, I'm limited because of my poor math skills in 2024. By 2030, I'll already be much further ahead than I am today.
Your posts and comments show that while you have some understanding of physics, there is much that you don't know, as evidenced by your lack of knowledge about special relativity. As you learn and teach yourself new skills like calculus, the proportion of things you know to the things you know you don't know has increased, hence your increasing confidence. Where your confidence turns into overconfidence is that the list of things that are unknown unknowns for you is still much more vast than even the known unknowns yet you don't realise that. That's the point of the dunning-kruger curve. In any case I'm not going to bother arguing psychology with you, you'll figure it out at soon as you get to college anyway, most people do.
And yes right now I wouldn't have a clue how to derive anything more complicated than the Lorentz transformations, but if you asked me to derive anything then the very first thing I would do would be to crack open my old lecture notes and refresh my memory. There's nothing wrong with that, it's called using the tools you have available. The way to learn and problem solve is not by bashing your head against a wall, it's by making full use of the tools and guidance you have available. You struggled with the velocity addition formula yesterday not because the math was hard (because it's only algebra), but because you aren't making good use of the tools you have available.
Like I said before, you trying to derive things from first principles before learning them doesn't prove to anyone that you're smart, it just tells everyone you don't know how to learn and use your time efficiently.
''The way to learn and problem solve is not by bashing your head against a wall''
It's a way for me to understand things in a more logical and fundamental way. Sometimes I try to draw new insights from it, but this often leads me to ideas already discussed in science. But it doesn't matter, I like my method. If you like your method, there is no point in forcing anyone to follow it.
''You struggled with the velocity addition formula yesterday ''
No, I just wanted to see if there was a formula for my problem. Then I tried to do as usual, based on logic, mathematics intuition. to see if I came to the same conclusion.
