Schools Renewable Energy University Research
Are there any major universities doing research on renewable energy (solar power) or energy generation? It seems that many of the companies that are working on renewable energy are looking for EE degrees rather than physics degrees. Should I consider an EE degree if I want to do research in...- Axiom_137

High School Why do we capitalize certain words in physics?
"Quantum Mechanics" || "Quantum Physics" (Thanks to George Jones for clarifying the rules of proper adjectives.) Use "quantum mechanics" or "quantum physics" ? I have noticed that many physicists will use "quantum mechanics" almost interchangeably with "quantum physics". It seems that...- Axiom_137

High School Why do we capitalize certain words in physics?
I suppose capitalization of words founded on names is a good argument. So, units of "gauss" or "coulombs" should always be capitalized? (Or is there a different set of rules for units of measure? I'd rather have a unified theory...)- Axiom_137

High School Why do we capitalize certain words in physics?
While writing about some topics in science I came across the strange use of capitalization with certain words related to physics. (e.g. "Newtonian" and "galilean" ) I notice many people capitalize "Newtonian" wherever it is used. (Most spell-checkers will even mark the lower case version as...- Axiom_137

What is the Taylor expansion for ln(1+z)?
For the geometric series, the inequality for this problem would be : |-iz|<1 or simply |z|<1 z=0 satisfies |z|<1- Axiom_137

What is the Taylor expansion for ln(1+z)?
This seems a little too simple for the complex plane. What about ln(i-z)? hmmm... \int \left( \frac{1}{i} \right)\frac{dz}{1 + iz} = \int \left( -i\sum_{k = 0} ^ {\infty} (-iz) ^ k \right) dz ln(i-z) = \sum_{k = 0} ^ {\infty} \frac{(-iz)^{k+1}}{(k+1)} Plug in z=0 and the sum is zero...My...- Axiom_137

Electro magnetic Induction problem. Simple one, but check wehre I am wrong.
Isn't the "B" in this system a vector? (Those tricky vectors...) :cool: ~A137- Axiom_137
