On the webpages below this page you will find articles that represent my attempt to clarify some of the very confusing misconceptions that easily arise about how terms like `mass’, `energy’, `matter’, `force’, `momentum’, etc. are used, and how they often have multiple meanings even within physics that differ from their meanings in English.
