I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but since I'm new here i'll post it here until someone tells me it should go somewhere else. Anyway, I am currently wondering how to measure the color of some post it notes. It started as a friendly argument as to which post it pad was more red...

Hello to everobody, i need help how works varicap can somebody explain how it works, how to measure i have bb205 VARICAP, i try to search on internet but i don't find something good, to learn thanks

I have some questions about the curvature of space (NB not of spacetime) near a planet like Earth. Unambiguously defining space curvature requires choice of a coordinate system, so I choose the Swarzschild system. Here are my questions: Would constant-time hypersurfaces under the Swarzschild...

I'm trying to figure out how you would actually measure the result of a quantum gate. For example, suppose I build a Hadamard gate by using a beam splitter. The output of this gate creates either |\psi> = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} |0> + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} |1> or |\psi> = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} |0> -...

Hi! Can anyone recommend a good introductory book for measure theory? I've found Terence Tao's online book to be a good start, but would I be asking too much if I wanted something even more introductory? Ultimately I'm working toward Ergodic theory (and probability theory along the way) with...

I have the problem of making "at home" or almost, a measure of a laser's pulse energy for unit area of the target: those kinds lasts for ~ tens of milliseconds, up to some hundreds of ms and I should be able to verify that this energy "density" doesn't go beyond 40 J/cm^2 for a single pulse...

Hello everyone, I am trying to work out how much force is generated when a tyre fails at a certain pressure. The tyre will be inside an OSHA section 1910.177 compliant tyre cage. What calculation would be used to solve the following?: The tyre size is 35 x 11.5-17 with a rated inflation of...

I can't read the tons of posts and replies about one-way light speed in this forum. I was criticised once for sustaining light speed should be equal in both outward and return trips and Einstein's method of syncing clocks as the only reasonable one. Then I studied some scientific articles gently...

Does anybody know where i can buy a device with which i can measure the frequency of light from various sources such as bulb light?

Can we experimentally measure the very weak gravitational force between two objects just like we can detect magnetic field lines by a deflecting compass.

aren't you supposed to measure weight in Newtons? And mass in kilograms/grams?

I'm aware that the LIGO system uses interferometry but I'm confused how it works in this case. Do they test both beams of light? Or do they use one beam to test the wavelength of the other and see the difference? Also it is sensitive up to 10 e-18 meters, is that for the change in wavelength or...

Hello, I have a tennis racquet that has a certain weight distribution that makes it play very well. Due to quality control issues from the manufacturer my second racquet of same make and model has a very different weight profile, making matching difficult. I'd like to determine the weight...

In my physics textbook it says that ammeter in circuit C shows higher current than ammeter in circuit A and D. And the voltmeter shows higher voltage in D than in B, and C. It's explained in the book that way: some electric current is passing through the voltmeter in C, thus the ammeter will...

I was wondering how I could measure the rate constant k for chemiluminescence reaction of luminol (when oxidised by H2O2. I was told that I can use a lux meter that measures the intensity of light emitted, but I'm not so sure how this can be done since the equation calculating the rate constant...

Why do EMF meters measure ELF and VLF in flux density units but RF in power density units? Is it because ELF/VLF have low power density and high flux density, and RF has high power density and low flux density? They are all EM waves, right? what's driving the difference in measurement units? thanks

Given a list of values, one calculates the arithmetic mean of those values which are greater than the arithmetic mean of all values. Is there an established name for that quantity?

The title of this thread is the title to this Phys.org article posted today: https://phys.org/news/2017-08-physicists-complementary-properties-quantum-clones.html First, correct me if I'm wrong, but the problem is not that complementary states cannot be both measured, but that the there is a...

Take it slow, polaritons are a new concept for me. Anyways, I'm trying to get some intuition for excitation polaritons having mass. Is this a quantity that we could directly measure, at least in theory if not practically? How would we separate the mass of the polariton itself from the mass of...

At the outset I am a novice in physics. i have constructed a rain water storing tank with a capicity of 1,20,000 litres. I propose to seal the tank so that there is no light penetrating inside the tank. My question now is how do I measure how many feet of water is left inside the tank? Can...

Okay, let me prelude this by saying I only have an -EXTREMELY- limited understanding of classical physics, and zero knowledge of quantum mechanics. This is really just my asking a few questions in regards to an idea I had for an experiment, and what would be a good and accurate way to...

The knowns I have are the volume of the storage tanks, the intital pressure in the tanks, and the final pressure in the tanks...

I'm well aware of the common adage and quantum fact that, until a particle is measured by some sort of instrument, it exists in a state of superposition, can interfere with itself, etc. My questions pertains to the definition of "measurement". In order for something to qualify as a measurement...

Homework Statement m1= 0,05 kg, m2= 0,03 kg, mass of spring is omitted. We look at movement after spring stopped vibrate. How long does the spring measure during the movement if not stretched spring measure 0,1 meter and if we use force 0,1N elongation measures 0,02 meter. (sorry, English isn't...

Something I've always wondered: why do we measure the amount of disorder (entropy) rather than the amount of order? We don't measure brightness by the amount of "dark". Surely order is the thing of interest, so why don't we measure that rather than measuring the absence of it? And in...

Hi, I am a new student and trying to to measure the power and voltage output from B200 SDR device (https://www.ettus.com/content/files/b200-b210_spec_sheet.pdf) using oscilloscope (TDS3000 Series: https://www.atecorp.com/ATECorp/media/pdfs/data-sheets/Tektronix-TDS3000_Series_Manual.pdf)...

I have searched the Internet and I have not found a simple layman's explanation other than this. We observe their decay products of quarks and that is what the mass is reconstructed from. Is this correct? If so I would like to have that confirmed. I am just looking for a simple direct...

Sooooo... I have a Far infrared (FIR) sauna. It has large flat 'carbon' panel heaters. They get warm to the touch and won't burn you if you touch them. My non contact infrared thermometer zapper says that they get to about 70 degrees C. They are meant to be producing lots of FIR. A regular...
