So I know exactly how to solve this question with the relevant equations. However problem I ran into was how I substitute for K.E (Kinetic Energy). I asked one of my teachers for help. She said that since the voltage applied stops the experiment, it is equivalent to the energy of the electron...

Hello, I have been thinking about this problem for a few hours, and I do not understand how I should proceed to solve it correctly. Section a is very simple, just substitute in the expression that gives us the values of L and C that the statement gives us. However, when I get to section b, I...

Exercise like this: I think that the friction force can assume two direction, up and down, but how can i know the direction of the force? I want to say, i don't even know which mass is greater to say i the block will upward or downward. that is the doubt. That is the correct forces directions...

Please refer to the image attached for the question.thanks.

By carrying out accurate measurements on the amount of deflections observed by the electrons on the electric field strength or magnetic field strength, Thomson was able to determine the value of e/me as... e/me = 1.75 10^11 C kg^-1 would this be a correct understanding of this para- "This para...

Why do we define functions as only as only those graphs which have only one y value for each x value. for eg. we don't say that a circle is a graph of a function,because its graph would have two y values for same x values. what i mean to ask is why not call anything that takes a input and gives...

Here it goes. I'm reading some notes on the Rutherford (gold foil) experiment and they first state what one should expect if the atom model was like the one described by Thomson (plumb pudding model). In order to somehow predict what the deviation should be when throwing alpha particles towards...

My question arises when we expand the S-matrix using Wick's theorem, there we need to compute time-ordered products, but is not the same to compute $$T\{\bar{\psi}(x_1)\gamma^\mu \psi(x_1) A_\mu(x_1)\}$$ or $$T\{:\bar{\psi}(x_1)\gamma^\mu \psi(x_1) A_\mu(x_1):\}$$ While the second one is simply...

I was thinking of this simple equation here, ## x^2 = 4##. Many students present the solution as follows. $$ x^2 = 4 $$ $$ \therefore x = \sqrt{4} = \pm 2 $$ Now, even though the final answer is correct, there is a mistake in arriving at the solution. Square root symbol means that we have to...

Good afternoon, My question concerns Maxwell's first law. Knowing the formula of the electric field created by a uniformly charged disk, we calculate its divergence and evaluate it at one point, it does not give us zero, as it should be because the volumetric density of charge is zero, why does...

I am now reading this paperhttps://arxiv.org/pdf/gr-qc/0405103.pdf, which is related to the energy condition in wormhole. Nevertheless, I got a problem in Eq.(6), which derives from so-called ANEC in Eq.(2): $$\int^{\lambda2}_{\lambda1}T_{ij}k^{i}k^{j}d\lambda$$ And I apply the worm hole space...

I am reading this article now :http://www.cmp.caltech.edu/refael/league/thorne-morris.pdf. And i am a little bit confused about the Eq.(38a)and Eq.(38b), which means the time measured by traverller and people in the sataion, and I just think the time measured by traveller should be his proper...

Good Morning, I am using the Jacobi diagonalization method for symmetric matrices and I have realized that as the number of iterations progresses, the speed with which the larger element (in absolute value) outside the diagonal of the diagonal becomes smaller Matrices are increasing (graphical...

I know that, if my ##X## axis is aligned with the arm, there is friction pointing to ##O## and the ##x## component of the weight. Then, on the ##Y## axis, there is the normal force and the ##y## component of the weight. Supposing that I am situated on the arm (non inertial frame), where is the...

Given λ=700nm, we use the equation mentioned above and find the Temperature to be 4140K. However, my doubt is that the wavelength specified to be used above is a maximum and I'm not sure if the answer is (a) or (d) considering that the latter is a range of the temperature.

I am a noob to this topic so correct me If I made any silly mistake. By plugging in the values I managed to get p(abc)=0.75*0.9*p(c|ab) Here How can I find p(c|ab)? Is this question unsolvable or can I derive it? I also want to know what is meant by p(abc) in literary terms. I also created a...

As I said my goal is to derive the equation ##\tilde{B}^k(\vec{q})=-i\varepsilon^{ijk}q^i\tilde{A}^j_{cl}(\vec{q})## As far as I know, the magnetic field is defined using the potential as ##\vec{B}=\vec{\nabla}\times\vec{A}## Then in equation 6.6 they define ##A^\mu(x)=\int...

Hi, I have a doubt about calculating the solubility of lamivudine (3TC). Suppose you have an excess of free base lamivudine (B) in solution. An equilibrium is generated between B in the aqueous phase and B in the solid phase, i.e. in solution and the base body. As we acidify the pH by...

Good morning I'm no expert in classical physics, so I have one doubt. If I have a body with mass M, and I charge it electrically with x C (Coulombs), will its mass remain the same, or will it change (in which amount)? Can you help me in the case of a ball, let's say, with 1.5 Kg charged with...

In D Alembert's soln to wave equation two new variables are defined ##\xi## = x - vt ##\eta## = x + vt x is therefore a function of ##\xi## , ##\eta## , v and t. For fixed phase speed, v and given instant of time, x is a function of ##\xi## and ##\eta##. Therefore partial derivative of x w.r.t...
