Re: apparent weight





In most cases, you may need to get someone else to provide a
concept-challenging situation. When one thinks entirely within a
simpl(ified) explanation one tends *not* to even consider anything which
isn't embraced by that explanation. One is not likely to think of the
concept-destroying case, even if it is a case easily observed in everyday
life, or easily demostrated in class.

Hence the value of Phys-L, one may have a colleague who has thought of the
concept-destroying case!

Three cheers for Phys-L
