We're given the equation qB=mv/r which is simple enough. I just don't know how to find the velocity given the acceleration through a potential difference. I tried using the radial acceleration equation given to me but I end up with the square root of a negative...and that breaks math... I...

Hi, I'm reading Lamarsh's book "Introduction to nuclear reactor theory" and in chapter 7 he discusses the influence of temperature on the resonance escape probability. He states that after an increase in Temperature, as a consequence of Doppler broadening, the microscopic absorption cross...

Could I please get a hint on how I should start this question/how I should parameterize these variables? I'm going to head to sleep as I am from the eastern time zone. I apologize ahead of time for my delayed reply.

Here is a long Science magazine News article on trying to engineer corals to better deal with climate change. Two challenges corals face due to climate change: increasing the temperature of the water in which coral lives (A 2˚ C temperature increase is said to be deadly to most coral) as...

Hello, I asked this similar questions on a different thread but it may be more appropriate for the chemistry forum. What is the reason we can only measure energy "changes" and not the actual energy value associated with a system? Absolute energies and enthalpy cannot be determined but I am not...

Sorry if this is the wrong subforum i am new here How could one turn Palladium-102 into palladium-103? Would you take a cyclotron and hit it with neutrons? Or would you take Rhodium-103 and hit it with protons? The only reason I ask is because it has a half life of 17 days, and because of that...

Hello Forum, I understand that energy, either kinetic is a relative quantity whose value depends on the frame of reference and its motion. Is that true for potential energy as well? I read on a physics book that only changes in energy can be measure. What does that exactly mean? Why can we...

We all know that the state of matter can be changed by increasing temperature or by applying pressure. And, all of these, in some way lead to a change in the particles' speed. The speed of the particle decides the state of matter. So, if we were to throw an object at very high speeds, like 50%...
