Where does "Energy"- come from in time and space? An do you think it is an Imaginary thought ?
I`m not asking about the word- 'energy' we get from the 'food' we eat. The farthest 'thought' you can give, with reason and normal logic...
I do like a few of your answers here- "interesting". Seems nobody is willing to think this through. So if your not "creating energy" when you split an 'Atom'. Then you won`t get a- "BANG'(explosion) resulting in creating a form of 'energy'??? Humm-So Newtons 'Law' is Not a law but just a- Guess(an opinion). That`s not using reasoning nor understanding...
'Nothing"- never comes from- 'something'...It`s takes 'something'/'someone' to bring any form of 'energy' into existence, including yourself and the Big Bang. It all the 'Laws' in Physic`s. It`s like saying 'energy' came from "nothing"- ??? And that`s not true- it takes something to bring something into existance...Back to my question. And this is NOT a riddle...
Scientist have found out recently and stated that our Universe is 'Growing'. if so then they can state(Theory) that all Universes, "having similar 'energy' that is existing just like our own"- (apple to a apple- orange to a orange,"way of thinking") is growing. But with an 'entropy' system, it`s in a decline and degeneration. Which what our Universe is 'NOT' doing. Now that being 'said' :smile:, 'Something' that is growing came from something that 'existed'-"energy"(substance,a form of matter,etc.). Hint to the "Answer": As a scientist "way of thinking"- Try hitting the rewind button on the word- Universe with energy(as we know it- today). You should be able to see a little more clearly now. It takes 'something/someone' to bring any form of energy into existence. But the facts state here- it would take at least an 'equal amount' and/or more to bring all forms of 'Energy' into existence. Just saying- 'something'(Energy) came from 'Nothing' is a cop out on- 'Reality'...Even in working wi
Even working with all the "Laws of Physics"...
I have a perfect credit score, it can`t go any higher. Due to me using- "Reality", Not 'magic'..."Fact"

its like a checkbook.
negative energy means doing work
positive energy means work being obtained
energy isnt a thing but a timeline of how mass interacts with other mass until the masses are built up or broken down.
if energy cant be created or destroyed then neither can mass since they are the same thing.
possibly meaning all the energy and mass of today existed right after the big bang.
the growth of the universe has been only transactions.
EDIT_____________
as far as science knows energy cant be created or destroyed.
all this means is that 5.0 x10^ - 1 trillion seconds after the Big Bang all the energy and mass seen today was already present.
speculation about what was before the Big Bang is just that. there is no way to know as of now.
and about splitting an atom
In a fission reaction, a single large atom, such as uranium, is bombarded with neutrons, causing the nucleus of the atom to split into two smaller nuclei and several neutrons. The combined mass of the product atoms and neutrons is less than the mass of the original atom, and the mass loss is converted to energy according to Einstein's equation. The neutrons produced by the fission reaction cause other large atoms to fission, and their neutron production causes still other atoms to fission, leading to a chain reaction that continues exponentially (i.e., 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64…). The entire process is very rapid, taking only a few millionths of a second. The resulting energy production heats the surrounding air and causes it to expand in the form of a blast wave.
again no energy created, just a series of reactions that lose mass and release it as energy (transactions).
we dont know where any energy and mass came from we can only work with what we have until we answer our way onto new questions

Energy is just the number of allowable states that a system could occupy. A system that is already in its most likely state ie highest entropy may have a lot of energy ie allowable states but no useful energy can be extracted since it is very unlikely to spontaneous transition into a much less likely state. Energy is conserved globally because the universe has and always has had a very large but fixed number of allowable states when the universe reaches it most probable state maximum entropy no more useful energy will be extractable though energy will still exist.

According to Newtons laws, energy cannot be created or destroyed. This is called the law of conservation of energy. This theory states that at the beginning of time, the big bang contained all of the energy in the universe. Every action we perform has some kind of impact on the world, even if we cant see it. Energy comes from the world around us, constantly being transfered between objects and organisms

Although I don't agree with the theory, I guess you could say it derived from the "Big Bang". Since energy is never lost nor destroyed. But then again the particles involved in the big bang already had energy...WHO KNOWS!

Having bad credit can stop people from doing all the things they want to do, even getting an apartment in some areas. but i know a friend that tried credit magic and it changed her life. Check it out maybe it'll do the same for you
