I'm an experienced C++ programmer looking to learn Java SE 7. Because of the similarities of the language, you'd think there would be a tutorial out there suited for such people but I'm having trouble finding one. I've looked at a couple of Java tutorials that are tailored to C++ programmers...

I need to insulate the area between two heat sinks. The gap is about 10mm, and the bottoms of the heat sinks are facing each other with a peltier chip sandwiched in-between. However the two sinks are in separate enclosed sections, and I need to insulate the hot side from the cold side as much as...

Hi PF
Are there an interaction between an electromagnetic wave and a charge source? For example, does an electromagnetic wave get attracted by a charge source, the same way the Earth attracts the moon? Or is something else going on?
I am looking for some data that identifies the most significant source of decay heat for the first few days from a reactor trip. Something similar for 1month after or more would be useful.

I feel this is a very simple question, but I can't seem to wrap my head around it.
For example, if you have two 1.5 volt batteries in series and a load of 100 ohms then the total voltage is 3 volts and the current is 30mA because I=V/R. If you have two 1.5 volt batteries in parallel then the...

For diffraction you can assume slits in screens contain sources for the diffracted waves.
But for a slit of finite width, how far apart are the sources? If the sources are continuously placed in the gap, then that means there are an infinite number of sources. An infinite number of sources...

The Power density (Pd in W/m^2) at a distance r (in meters) for a transmitting antenna with gain Gt is given by:
Pd = ( Pt * Gt) / 4 * Pi * r^2 where Pt (in Watts) is the power transmitted from the antenna.
All these variables are scalar values so if there were multiple antennas and...
