    Schools Robotics Universities: MIT, CMU, Georgia Tech, Utah

    Robotics? Carnegie Mellon's the best out there :) If you have questions about CMU in particular, feel free to PM me, I'm an undergrad there and I'm doing a summer intern at the Robotics Institute there. University of Arizona and Caltech have robotics programs I think. AJ

    4=3 True or False? Check it out and guess where's the mistake

    I remember my dad showed it to me when I was in 5th or 6t grade. It stumped me, and I showed it to my Math teacher at school who explained the 11th Commandment to me: "You shall never divide by Zero"

    Java AJAX vs JAVA: A Comparison of Web Development Languages

    I think JAVA would much slower than AJAX for creating a forum like PF. Much slower. HTML loades much faster than a JAVA applet. But I guess applets could be designed to load faster.AJ

    Logically Prove (A \cup B) \subseteq C

    Homework Statement To prove A \subseteq C and B \subseteq C implies (A \cup B)\subseteq C 2. The attempt at a solution I just wanted to know if my reasoning seems logical. Here is my attempt: Assume A \subseteq C and B \subseteq C ... (1) Assume \forall x [ x\in A] and \forall x [x...

    What is the Smallest Quantum of Charge? - AJ

    Hello all. I was wondering - what is the smallest possible quantum of charge? Is it 'e', the charge on an electron? Then how are the charges on quarks explained? Am I right in thinking that the one quantum of charge is the smallest charge that can possibly exist? AJ

    Some good undergraduate Physics programs?

    CMU has a pretty good physics program. The freshman introductory physics honors class (which follows the book Matter and Interaction by Chabay and Sherwood) is very enjoyable. It exposes the students to the fundamentals right from the beginning. Definitely look into it. AJ

    Programs Computer Science Hopeful Major Help

    He could try for CMU. Its slightly easier to get into CMU than MIT. In Canada, Waterloo and Toronto are probably the best places for Computer Science. I'm going to CMU this fall for engineering

    Will Adding a Second Generator Increase Power Output?

    Thanks Warren. Imagine we assume that the output power depends linearly. Why does the angular frequency reduce? What do you mean by load?

    Will Adding a Second Generator Increase Power Output?

    So that means, when I add a second generator to the system, the rotation speed of the first (and the second) will become equal to or less than half of the rotation speed of the first generator connected alone? Is possible that the rotation speed might end up infact being more than half for both...

    Will Adding a Second Generator Increase Power Output?

    Imagine that we have a motor running at some power. Now, the spindle of this motor is connected to the axis of a generator, so the rotation of the motor spindle will rotate the axis of the generator. In an ideal situation (no friction, back emf, etc. and using similar number of turns of a coil...

    Schools Undergrad Major in Economics vs. Self-Studying for Grad School in Math

    I have a similar question. Can an Electrical Engineering graduate get into grad school for a PhD in physics?

    Do Indian Students Have a Chance at MIT and Other Top U.S. Universities?

    About 13 to 16 Indians get through each year as far as I can remember. But these admissions are very unpredictable, especially for international students. Also note that more than 200 Indians apply to MIT every year. Coming in the top 5%-10% of such a self-select group of high achievers can be...

    Physics or Electrical Engineering

    I hope the people here can help me in deciding between these two subjects. Here is a bit of background information about me. I am currently a high school senior, and will be going to college in Fall 2007. I am very interested in Physics, especially Cosmology and Astrophysics (the string theory...

    Schools Information on certain universities

    Hello, I just needed some information on a few universities, to which I am thinking of applying as an undergrad. My interests are Electrical Engineering, Physics, Maths and Computer Science. Here are the schools : Fairleigh Dickinson University (NJ) Rowan University (NJ) New Jersey Institute...
