Life as Spring

E=(1/2)K(Δ X)²

ΔX is the stretched or compressed length minus the spring's nature length. For example, if the spring's nature length (under no outside force) is 10 cm, when you stretch it into 14cm, ΔX is 4cm, and sum of (Δ X)² will thus be 16. If you compress the spring into 6 cm, the Delta X is -4cm, and sum of (Δ X)² will be 16 as well!

When life is quite, everything is going fine, routine like, nothing special happens, ΔX=0. Then, the E=0. So, it doesn't matter when good experience happens (ΔX is positive) or negative experience we have (Δ X is negative), the (ΔX)² will ALWAYS be positive, thus, E will have a value. Personally, I prefer to let my life energy have a number (E will NEVER to negative according to the formula), so it doesn't really matter good things or bad things happen because at the end, we need to square the ΔX, the outcome is always positive.

Next to this formula, there is a note: ΔX has to be its working range. This is VERY important: when you stretch or compress the spring too much, it will break. When it is broken, there is no point of calculating the potential energy it may have. That is to say, don't try to be cool and overdo things. Don't get everything in one time or commit suicide. It is against the law of nature. But as long as the spring stay unbroken, the more you stretch it OR the more you compress it, the higher energy it will have. Thus, a big part of it depends on its material: what kind of material we are decides what our Max ΔX is, thus our potential energy.

Nature elements influence ΔX, sometimes it depends on the temperature, the humidity in the air and how much you exercise the spring. This is part of K as I can remember. When you put it in a wet place and not exercising it at all, it will rot, when it starts rotting (I don't remember the chemical term for it...), the chemical reaction changes the material, and it make it ONLY less stronger. To get ride of the rotten part (before it is too late), you can either scrub it hard, which may damage the spring, or put it in HCL and let the acid melt the extra chemical away (the brown part, for interacting with Oxygen), but image the pain, image you have to put yourself through acid! So, my point is: take care of the spring in the first place, that is to say, make the environment as pleasant as possible, (such as having a roof) so the potential E can be increased or well maintained; and exercise it too simply because there is O2 in the air, so does H2O.

To be honest, for a spring have an E=0 doesn't exist: if you take one side of it and hang it on the wall, it will be stretched and have a small amount of E, yeah, the gravity. Even when you put in horizontally on the table, it still has E because of another formula that calculates the E relating to gravity where E and H (the height from the sea level) go up and down in the same direction according to one and another. (E= mgh) Of course, in that case, it is not really the experience that influence the E, but its nature weight (M) and the height its at (H), and where the spring is: on the earth at sea level, in a basin, in the summit of a hill, or on the Moon. But, in this case, it is not really the E of the spring, it is the E of anything that has a mass, so, it is really irrelevant. PS: it is impossible for E=0 when something that has a mass, even at the sea level when H=0 because we can calculate the law of force from the Earth itself, the Sun or a grind of sand next to it. (E= G(Mm)/r²) (Energy of attraction)

Alright, back to E for a spring. It sometimes is not up to us entirely to decide the value of (ΔX)² because it comes from a outside force, but it is our duty to keep the spring in a good condition. Once again, it doesn't matter good or bad things happen, when we square the distance, the outcome is always positive thus the E doesn't have anything to do with whether the spring is compressed or stretched. Me, I am interested in E, E only. When I have a great value of E, my life is good, I have more materials to work with, more mental strength, and surely the rich experiences that some people can't have. So, experience is just experience, good or bad, it is just a number, and you get to square it, so, what is the harm?

Second subject for the day: The law of inertia. According to Newton, if you give a object a outside force, the object will continue to move towards to direction of the given force, forever. (F=µN) But why they stop, always? Because of the friction. The explanation is Ft=m2v2-m1v1 ( I think), however, part of the friction depends on the surface of two materials that touch, that is to say the coefiction is a constancy since it totally depends on the materials themselves. There is always going to be friction everywhere between human interactions, when I don't get alone with someone, at times I simply believe that because our coefiction is not good. ( too many "oui oui" or too many fights) In order to change the coefiction, we have to change the materials, which means the change of personalities, sometimes it is impossible. So, don't get worked up if we can't get alone with someone, it is just numbers. (My personal way to get over a out-fall with another person...)So, when you say two persons have no chemistry between them, is it chemistry or physics?
