    B Everyday microwave oven physics: Does the energy transferred depend on what is inside?

    A small trinity test , lmao . Oh...i believe you must be absolutely right . It didn't cross my mind but it's true , aluminum foil is full of crests , creases and corners . Large curvature means larger local electric field strength , which inevitably leads to the breakdown of air , and hence the...

    Is math really that important to do physics?

    Well you have a strong point there . Chinese and Indian people are a very big fraction of the total world's population . So different kind of statistics might be the same as for many countries , but numbers do vary . I believe overall EU is doing very good tbh compared to Asia and America ...

    B Everyday microwave oven physics: Does the energy transferred depend on what is inside?

    You just reminded me of this : 🤣🤣 The really funny thing is that happend during my internship which was also RF/microwaves related . So the embarrassment was double . I could be an excellent example of how to get fired in no time , lmao 🤣 . But yeah , i was lucky because i realised it almost...

    Is math really that important to do physics?

    Obviously you are right . It's just that nobody wants to leave his/her country that easy . But i won't argue that it's far better to better light a candle than curse the darkness . Greece is fine only for vocations as it seems . That's a bummer , but that's how things are . Although i'm...

    B Everyday microwave oven physics: Does the energy transferred depend on what is inside?

    Once i made the mistake to put inside the microwave oven food wrapped up in aluminum foil. It didn't touch the walls . I literally saw plasma inside the oven and the food obviously caught fire . About the aluminium pie plates now...i'm not sure why they don't catch fire . I guess it has to do...

    Is math really that important to do physics?

    Sure . Netherlands is also a good option as far as i know . But i don't know right now what are the + and - of each country . This comparison needs more research . EU is pretty good actually when it comes to R&D . Asia is good too , especially when it comes semiconductor technology(fabs) . And...

    Is math really that important to do physics?

    Well you're not wrong , 2-3 hours flight is indeed not that far . I might even learn German as you suggested ( not an easy task though ) . It's extraordinary how many opportunities there are there actually . Who knows maybe Germany will be more suitable to my personality too than Greece . It...

    Is math really that important to do physics?

    It's quite the oposite here . Does this apply to most cities there ? Right, i am from Greece .

    How easy is it to move there in general ? Do companies help with that at all ? I really don't want to leave my country , but i'm also sick and tired of trying so hard and getting nothing in return so i would definitely consider it .

    You mean moving to Germany ? That's a big step , i know nothing about Germany , how things work there etc.

    Is math really that important to do physics?

    It's true , thanks . Thing is my interests are in kinda more exotic areas like cryotronics/metrology/sensors tech , accelerator tech , lasers etc. I believe my education is okay ( i will be graduating with a masters in a few months - engineering degree here takes 5 years to complete ) , but...

    Is math really that important to do physics?

    Well that's what i thought too . But physicists here work mainly as software engineers , physics teachers , medical physicists and also as telecommunication engineers . I'm ok with software engineering but as long as it is related to physics ( which is not possible here ) . While telecom...

    B Everyday microwave oven physics: Does the energy transferred depend on what is inside?

    No it won't be the same ( read below ) . Hello there . That's an interesting question . In my opinion : What's important to realise in first place is that there's no heat transferred to food ( you really don't have any heat flowing ). I get what you mean , but it's important to realise why it's...

    Is math really that important to do physics?

    Well you are right . It's been a long journey of wrong choices and unlucky events . Due to a medical incident i had when i was younger , lack of motivation( i didn't know what i wanted to become ) and not being able to afford tutoring like everybody else did , i didn't perform well in the...

    Is math really that important to do physics?

    To be 100% honest with you i feel this question have been bothering me because i have always tried to focus so hard on getting as solid physics and math background as possible , mostly because it was fun and intriguing , but what i observe is that these skills don't really pay off that much as i...
