Re: Explain Mass.
From what i heard physicists cant explain what is mass on a fundamental level.
In high school it is simply taught as 'the measurement of matter', but more advanced textbooks explain this a meaningless definition since it cant be explained quantitevely. I mean i never could digest this explanation when i first heard it because in High School they also defined matter as bieng soemthing that has mass.
So:
'Matter is something that has a mass'
'Mass is a measurement of matter'
It is clearly evident how meaningless these two definitions are together.
Physicists are now looking for a particle that is responsible for mass known as 'Higgs Boson' but it hasnt been found yet.
