If we use one gravitational field in GR and try to desribe it, we will see that from the perspective of the observer on the centre of mass of the object the clock on the hovering observer (farther away from the gravitational field) runs faster, while from the hovering observer's perspective the...

Suppose to have a BJT Common Emitter amplifier like the one below: Now, if we send a signal ##V_{in}## with a frequency belonging to the midband frequency interval, we can consider ##C_1, C_2,## and ##C_E## as short circuit. Questions are: 1) What is the effect of ##C_E## (excluding its role...

Hi all, I am wondering how is it possible that the polarization effects of a dielectric material remain confined inside the material itself. That is: for a LIH dielectric, the equations state that the electric field inside the material is reduced by \epsilon_r. But outside the material, no...

Hi, I would like to know what happens to the flow of DC current and voltage in an inductor if we change the reluctance of the inductor core repeateadly, Just a DC power source attached to an inductor in series with a lightbulb for example , now as the DC pass through the wire wound around the...

For a van der Waals gas, there are London dispersion forces causing the gas particles to be attracted to each other while the law of excluded volume provides repulsive forces. How do each of these characteristics effect the pressure, volume, and temperature of the gas? I assumed that for the...

I was having a discussion with a colleague earlier today regarding exoplanet exploration. Being that the biggest challenge for mankind to travel to distant planets is that time dilation would make such an extreme effect that by the time we reached our destination thousands of years may have...

First of all, I'm having a difficulty in defining what a static spacetime is. Does it presume that the objects with mass in the system are just sitting around and doing nothing, with no motion, relative to our frame, so there can be no motion and change in curvature of spacetime through time...

I have limited physics knowledge, but I have always been interested in the physics and I am an industrial radiation safety officer with an engineering background.Have there been any experiments in respect to measuring half life with large variance in gravitational fields? Although half life may...

Hello- I am running a simulation of a simple brazed copper assembly; brazed at 1050°C. I believe the Young's Modulus will drastically change after brazing at this temperature since the annealed state is "dead soft". My analyst colleague is using an annealed value for E of 15E-6 psi, which...

How does friction affect the type of rolling motion of an object. For instance, does having more friction than the required friction for rolling cause the object to spin?

I have two questions related to inflation, and wonder if there is an answer to any of them: 1- If there was inflation occurring faster than light at any time, so that the universe's radius is larger than aprox. 14 billion light years, then shouldn´t we be seeing some galaxies more than once...

On the ISS, special relativity dictates the station's clocks run slower than clocks on Earth because of the high velocity, but general relativity dictates that the station's clocks run faster than clocks on Earth because of the lesser gravity. Which effect is predominant, and do the station's...

I can fairly understand the concept of gravity as a curvature in space time in general relativity, but so far I could not understand completely the tidal forces explained by the curvature of spacetime. When the moon is on one side of the earth, the oceans on this side come closer to the moon...

Ever since Einstein showed us that time is relative, and that there is no such thing as independent time but a space-time fabric, and since we’ve got experimental results about the dilatation effect that speed and gravity/acceleration have on time: Is it OK to say that the universe started 13,79...

1.What would be the effect of the following factor on the maximum power that can be transmitted. (give reasons for your answers) Increasing the included angle of the pulley groove. 2. What would be the effect on the following if the load torque is increased and the speed maintains constant? The...

Hello The textbooks about nuclear physics I have read don't explain too much about the Yukawa's model. For example, the textbook Structure of the Nucleus -by Preston and Bhaduri- finish the Yukawa's model with open questions about the "mesonic effects" by virtual pions. And my doubt: are the...

I'd like to know some specifics about the biological effects of X-rays on living tissue.

If, when the universe was young, and you had all of today's universe worth of matter compacted into a space only a few thousand/ million light years in diameter the gravitational effect on time would be much stronger than it is today. Does this affect our calculations on how old the universe is...

I have been thinking for the past couple months on how the expansion of the universe effects the matter and energy within it. Please read every line, skipping any part of this thread will lead to confusion. Hopefully someone can shed some light on this amazing new question of universal expansion...

I am not sure if this question even makes any sense, it just popped in my mind while reading a book on special relativity. Suppose an observer throws a ball upwards, now at the time of throwing, both the observer and the ball have a horizontal velocity same as the instantaneous velocity of...

I'm looking for an equation that can give me the the amount an explosions force dissipates based on varied gas densities. I've already posted this in r/AskPhysics, r/AskScience, and r/Physics, and thought posting it here might give it better exposure. Oh, and before someone asks, this isn't...

Homework Statement How do sterics affect basicity? Homework Equations Sterics has to do with kinetics. Basicity is a thermodynamic property. Nucleophilicity is a kinetic property. The Attempt at a Solution So is the answer "sterics don't affect basicity"? I can't see why sterics...

So I was thinking about the space time field and trying to wrap my head around how it is actually bent around a mass. Has anyone thought of thinking about the bending of space time around a mass like multiple orbits? Almost like in the way we describe the orbits of an electron around a...

I was wondering if somebody could let me know if wings inside of a closed environment (tube of sorts) with air flowing over them would generate lift, or if the air flowing over them would be directed downwards onto the bottom of the tube, canceling any lift generated by the wings? The first...

When a proton collides with a proton say at the LHC, is vacuum field theory used? It seems like you shouldn't have to include temperature effects since there are only two particles. But then again, all experiments take place at finite temperature, the ambient temperature of the room? When a...

Hi everyone, I just wanted to share this really cool game MIT Game Lab made, it's called A Slower Speed of Light: http://gamelab.mit.edu/games/a-slower-speed-of-light/ Sorry if this is already commonly known among people interested in SR (probably is- but maybe there's a few people who...

http://arxiv.org/abs/1407.0989 White hole anyone?..^^ "...intense gravity creates a horizon, but it is not an event horizon. It is locally like an horizon, but not globally. So, matter is trapped for a while, but not forever; it is called sometimes a “trapping” horizon."-CR

SR is a theory based on flat space-time, and all of its effects are there in a flat space-time framework.My question is, how is SR compatible with GR, since GR uses curved space-time? Or to say it better how are time dilation, length contraction and relative simultaneity manifested in curved...

I was just thinking about this, and from a perspective of an inertial frame, it's easy to see how distances contract, times dilate, simultaneity varies between observer and the speed of light is exactly c in each case. But what about non-inertial frames? In the presence of gravity almost...

I am looking for an equation that correlates material failure and collision speed; so that I can better understand the effects of size and speed on model airplane crashes. Is there an equation that correlates an object's length and speed to material failure, for one-dimensional elastic...
