The absolute zero point.

[Gumballer]

please only post if you know something about physics etc..

the absolute zero point in science is the name for a temperature of -273,15... °C or 0K
according to them thats the lowest temperature possible becaus, again accodring to them thats when the molecules stop moving.

Do you believe that there is an absolute zero point ?


Personaly I don't, becaus as long as the molecules get a temperature, doesn't matter how low or how high, they will get energy and the temperature can be even -1000 and they will still have a temperature to move. I think that -273,15...°C is just the lowest temperature or the most slow movement that is detectable with our equipment of today.

Does anyone think something else ?

I'm agreeing with you. I took us lots of time only to get to the size of an atom... So they can say whatever they want : I think molecules will always move, because they have space to.
The best way to know would be to try it... somewhere in space. This can sound crazy and stupid, but there is NO air in space. Will the molecules move even if there is nothing to make them move ? Maybe. Surely.
I just won't trust the absolute zero point befor we have at lest a more advanced technology ;p

Of course there is an absolute zero. Even if there isn't it's irrelevant because once it gets to the point of the claimed absolute zero, none of our current instruments can measure it and the atoms move so little that there is really no significant activity happening.
