    Seems basic math tell me that x to exp neg 3 equals 1/x cubed and 1/ over 1/ over x cubed equals x cubed.

    mystery to me, what the hell is he smoking?

    PHI must be a vector quantity?
    It would be correct if it is (1/Phi)exp-3 that would be equal to Phi exp3=~4.17 . However 1/Phi exp-3=~0.853

    Wolframalpha says they're the same:

    Interestingly its also equivalent to 2+sqrt(5).

    You lost me,bro.

    If it's just a number any old x will do. absent some sort of vector or compound number it still reduces to x cubed.

    Do you agree with this statement?

    square root of x (or x-2) isn't equal to 1/x2.

    square root of x equals x exp 1/2;

    x exp -2 equals 1/x exp 2 or 1/x squared

    sqrt(x) = x^(1/2)

    x^-2 = 1/x^2


    Roots are fractional exponents. Inverses are negative exponents.

    Very interesting device you can buy if you want to view these magnetic fields:

    ok I agree.

    The tatooed lunatic has explained magnetism better than any physics book has.

    Where barefoot hairy armpit mother nature takes us from here is unknown.
