The inverse suqare law

To most of us the term inverse square law sounds like a strange mouth full. Inverse is term for opposite. When a plane fly's upside down it is said to be is inverted. When you look at yourself in a mirror your left becomes your right and your right becomes your left. From your point of view everything about your face is inverted. From a persons point of view of your face is opposite to your point of view of the point of view of our face.

Another example of inverse is fond in image editor programs where the inverse menu inverts images into negatives. Black and white line drawings white become black the black lines become white. Colour images too. The opposite to green is red and the opposite to red is green and the opposite to brown is blue and the opposite to blue is brown respectively.

In mathematical terms a square is when a number is multiplied by itself. Our mathematical instinct agrees as there is 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minuets in an hour is only a matter of 60 sixties. 60 multiplied by 60 pans out to a total of all the seconds that go into a one hour long TV program. 

An hour long TV program equals 60 squared. Squares are is written with a little razed 2 just to the right of any number. All that is needed for this is a symbol for seconds of an hour equals 60 squared.

Our mathematical instant agrees If we do the reverse (invert) 3 thousand 600 divided by 60 brings us back to the root of the square in this case a minute (in seconds) to an hour long TV program called a square root. The symbol is a tick like symbol over any number. Thus the square root of an hour long TV program is the square root of 3 thousand 600. Mathematics can't lie you know.

A minute in seconds entered into any 2 dollar calculator 60 times 60 equals 3 thousand 600 is a square of an hour. Divided by 60 seconds (or a minute) equals 60 seconds is an inverse. The total sequence for a hour long TV program is an example of a inverse square law.

Isaac Newton used the inverse square law to describe gravity. Take any two bodies a distance apart in meters (or yards apart if you like) body 1 and body 2. (or G1 and G2 if you like)

Our mathematical instinct agrees If the distance between the 2 bodies is 1 meter, and we square it pans out to 2 ones are 2. If we square 2  (2 two's are 4) the distance is stretched 4 meters. If we square 4 meters is a distance is stretched 4 fours are 16 meters. If we square 16 is a distance is shifted 16 sixteens' equal the distance stretched  256 and if we square 256 and so on.

If we invert the sequence the inverse of 256 is 16 meters apart. If we invert 16 meters becomes 4 meters apart If we invert 4 meters apart is 2 meters and if we invert 2 meters is one meter. 256, 16, 4, 2 and one meter apart increments is  inversely proportional to the square of the distance square.
