How does nature choose to
reverse the momentum in the wave reflected from a mismatched
source?

The definition is accurate as well as descriptive. As I've explained at
least a dozen times, energy only moves in the direction of transfer.

Of course, it is not against the guidelines as the subject was "Reflected
Power". I simply continued to talk about reflected power, the subject of
the thread. That's a broad subject. Perhaps the originator erred in
choosing
that broad of a subject but he chose that subject nevertheless. All of my
postings to this thread have been about reflected power, including this
one,
in defense of my postings about reflected power.

then obviously you just struck on the convenient subject line and ignored
the original question, subverting the whole thread for your own twisted
use... including the argument that you were not taking over the discussion.
this obviously just raises the noise floor and does nothing to help the
original poster who by now is likely heading for his local library if he is
smart.

I am sure that our solar system and homo sapiens didn't exist
when the original question was asked.

Where are the E and H fields in the string response?

So the question is which came first, the homo or the solar system?

Energy moves in whatever direction energy moves. According to
you, if we reflect light energy from Alpha Centauri back to
Alpha Centauri, no energy movement has occurred. Never mind
that it takes 20 years to accomplish that energy movement.
Your "no work equals no energy" concept is as bogus as it
possibly can be. Joules of energy passing a point in delta-
time is power, by IEEE definition.

Nope, you must have missed the posting where I said I didn't
possess sufficient knowledge to answer the original question
but I was willing to discuss something related to the subject
line for which I do possess sufficient knowledge.

Why all the logical diversions? What are you afraid of?

For what it is worth, I believe that the first homo sapien
originated about a quarter of a million years ago and was
a female with dominant genes.

Strange belief for a creation of barely 5000 years old. What has this
to do with Reflected Power?

Cecil, unless you can simply express your views, and let me be the one
to express my views, the exchange becomes degraded to ascii mud
wrestling. I have no interest in that. Please make your point without
speaking on 'my behalf'.
