As we know that the magnetic induction causes an electric current in a wire and Faraday has formulated his Electromotive equation ##\epsilon=-\frac{d\Phi}{dt}##. And then Maxwell-Faraday's equation is: ##\nabla \times E=-\frac{\partial B}{\partial t}##, until now this was just an introduction...
I am studying the real scalar field theory in ##d## spacetime dimensions as beautifully presented by M. Srednicki QFT's draft book, chapter 18 (actually, for the sake of simplicity, let us include polynomial interactions of degree less than or equal to 6 only)

W=-qEd
=-(1.6*10^-19)(23)(0.75)
= -2.76*10^-18 J
However, the answer is 2.76*10^-18 J. Why is the word done positive and not negative? Since it's traveling in the same direction as the electric field, shouldn't it be negative work?
Hi,
I have to find the motion of a particles ##(x,y,z)##. However, I'm not sure where to begin.
Is it correct to split the problem and first find what's the motion in the x direction then y and z.
For exemple,
##m \frac{d^2x}{dt^2} = -kv_{0x} + qv_{0x}B sin 90 ##
##m\int\int...

These are the 4 distributions shown, and I have to determine which two distributions (or none at all) can use Gauss's law to determine the electric field.
So electric flux = EA = Q/electric constant.
Since all of them have charges, I could do something like Q/(A*electric constant) to get the...

I study the reflection from a rough surface and get the field as the attached figure
my question
can I use the field distribution to get the angular distribution of the scattered field and how can I project the field to plane waves?
My doubt is in the mathematics part. As the force will be contrary to the direction of the field due to the negative charge, the particle will be attracted to the origin, so I assumed that the speed will increase (this is also found in the exercise response). I then applied an integral for the...
In an electric field ##E## if the energy of charged particle (ion) is formulated as ##W=qEr## where ##r## is the distance, how the number of particles is estimated?
The problem is shown above, the hint to solve the problem is below. See the hint if it is difficult for you to imagine what is going on.
I am assuming the diagram in the hint shows what's happening when the mass is falling at terminal velocity. I have quite a few questions.
1. How do the wheels...
I am just a bit confused here. Would doing this even change the electric field direction at the center at all? I'm thinking no, but a bit of direction would be appreciated. This problem is really simple, I'm just a bit confused.
In Robert Wald's General Relativity textbook page 64 reads:

In prerelativity physics, the electric field ##\vec{E}## and magnetic field ##\vec{B}## each are spatial vectors. In special relativity these fields are combined into a single spacetime tensor field ##F_{ab}##...
I attempted to run a lab that would allows us to calculate the magnetic field strength of a couple different neodymium magnets. I would love some feedback on it and ways that I could potentially make it better. The numbers I calculated were very far off from what I expected.

The force on a charged particle that is moving through a magnetic field is explained in introductory physics textbooks. The magnetic field cannot change the kinetic energy of the charged particle because the force from the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the velocity, so no work is...
The low-energy effective action of the bosonic string is given by:
$$S=\frac{1}{2k_0^2}\int d^{26}X\sqrt{-G}e^{-2\Phi}\Big(\mathcal{R}-\frac{1}{12}H_{\mu\nu\lambda}H^{\mu\nu\lambda}+4\partial_\mu\Phi\partial^\mu\Phi\Big)$$
where ##H_{\mu\nu\lambda}=\partial_\mu B_{\nu\lambda}+\partial_\nu...
Attached is my book's section on many-electron atoms. It says that in the central field approximation, an electron's potential energy is a function of its distance from the nucleus. Later on it says there is an effective atomic number. Does this mean that in this approximation, all charges...
I tried following the formula but it wasn’t correct. I’m sure I could get it if I had an example as I’m sure this must be a simple question for other people I was just unsure if I was doing it correct.
hello :)
i would very much like study some quantum field theorie, but have not previously study any regular quantum mechanic (i am not so interest in regular quantum mechanic, but more the relativistic theories).
so i ask, this is possible or not? to what extent knowledge of regular quantum...
here is the question, don't mind about point (a) and (b) because i have solved them already...the main problem is the question on point (c) :
so far, what i have done is : H = 2.7*0.1-(1.4*0.15+1.3*0.25) = -0.265 az A/m which is the wrong answer compared to the solution provided from the...

I haven't taken a physics courses in some time and I'm having trouble getting started with this textbook question. I know that there will be relativistic effects present, but I can deal with that. The problem is how I can approach the problem. I initially thought of a geometric way to set up...
Referencing this resume template, do you know how to delete the \entry field (dates) within the rubric (so that the text will align left without indentation)? I only want this for one rubric, but am unsure how to do this.
Thanks so much!
I have just attached a standard depiction of a radial field as one may similarly choose to draw it. So I understand that the gravitational field strength in a field is defined as the force per unit mass at that point. The field lines in a radial field move further apart further away from the...
I know that the answer is 0 J (no NET work was done) because there is symmetry to the problem and this symmetry comes from the fact that the direction of force changes, BUT I don’t know why the force changes (I have an idea; TBD below in #4). When I did this problem I thought I could find the...
I'm not sure if I should post this here or in the mathematics section.
I'm trying to find a way to implement a mapping of a larger finite field such as GF(2^64) to a composite field GF((2^32)^2). Let f(x) be a primitive polynomial for GF(2^64), with 1 bit coefficients. If the coefficients of...
Charge QQ is uniformly distributed along a thin, flexible rod of length LL. The rod is then bent into the semicircle shown in the figure (Figure 1).Find an expression for the electric field E⃗ E→ at the center of the semicircle.
Hint: A small piece of arc length ΔsΔs spans a small angle...
The last couple of days I’ve been troubled with a specific part of electromagnetism. How will electric field lines be affected by an oscillating charge? More specific, what will happen with the “amplitude” of a wave in an electrical field line as the wave propagate away from the charge?

So force on a current carrying wire = ILxB.
If I have a bunch of bar magnets making a uniform magnetic field of strength B, then a 1 meter long wire of 0 ohms carrying 1 Amp, the force on that wire is (1)(1)xB = 1B. If I let that force move the wire for a time T, let's assume the wire moved a...
On a previous thread (now locked) I was wondering about how, precisely, the Earth's magnetic field protects us from the solar wind. Posting this here because what I wrote in that thread is very wrong, and I think it's an interesting topic.
I had a hell of a time finding good information. I...
So my idea was that to reach the equilibrium position, the final moment of force has to be 0 (so in the end the forces will “eliminate” each other). And I found the equation Fm=B*I*l*sinα, which should characterize the force, which affects wire with the current in a magnetic field, and Fleming’s...
Dear friends,
First of all I have one question! As per Figure 1, how to implement electrical connection in real life which are seen inside Red Box? and what is the meaning of grounding the other terminal?

Hubble deep field allowed us to study galaxy evolution from 500 million years onward. Based on my (limited) understanding, I would expect ancient galaxies to contain fewer heavy elements and to have a more "juvenile" appearance, as compared to modern galaxies. Have we actually observed these...
A body on a circular orbit in the field of a central force (satellites in gravity field of Earth; a charge in a magnetic field) is subjected to a force which is always perpendicular to its initial velocity v, hence in a time period dt it acquires an additional velocity dv, which is also...
We know that when a magnet is exposed to high temperatures, it loses its magnetic properties. Why then does the Earth's magnetic field behave differently? That is, why doesn't the Earth lose its magnetic properties? According to BBC News Brasil, the core temperature is around 6000 ° C, higher...
Off the back of a recently closed thread where there was some discussion about the gravitational field of an infinite flat slab, I decided to have a play at investigating that. I've found a few interesting things.
It's fairly straightforward to solve for this situation. You use Cartesian-esque...
I am not quite sure how to present my answer in the form of a function with relation to the distance from the centre.
What I got so far is the E1 and E2, for the internal and external sphere respectively.
For internal sphere, the charge is volume * 𝜌, so it is
$$ \frac{4\pi r^{3}}{3} * 𝜌$$...
In this lecture Lenny Susskind describes a spin in a magnetic field precesses around the axis of the direction of the magnetic field. This description is also frequently found in NMR theory which is a semi-classical theory.
Lenny says if the magnetic field ##B_o## is applied in the ##z##...
If you take a horseshoe magnet and fuse the north and South Poles together (without destroying the magnetic field) would you have a “pole-less” magnet? And if so, what special properties would it have(other than other magnets)?
I was reading some papers about calculating the magnetic field produced by a coil using the biot savart law and I saw some graphs that caught my attention.
