Undergrad Differential equation from derivative of time dilation
Thanks for clearing this up Orodruin. My answer did seem a little odd to me, and this makes much more sense.- bb1414

Undergrad Differential equation from derivative of time dilation
Hi all! I was messing around with the equation for time dilation. What I wanted to do was see how the time of a moving observer ##t'## changed with respect to the time of a stationary observer ##t##. So I differentiated the equation for time dilation ##t'## with respect to ##t##: $$\frac {dt'}...- bb1414

Undergrad Hamiltonian in Schrödinger: necessarily total energy?
The Hamiltonian ##H## is generally defined as the sum of the kinetic and potential energy operators or ##H=T+V##. Right away, this appears to be the total energy of the system, so we could then say that for a wave function ##\psi## that ##H\psi=E\psi## where ##E## is the energy operator. This...- bb1414

Undergrad Can the Schrodinger equation satisfy Laplace's equation?
The time-dependent Schrödinger equation is given by: ##-\frac{\hslash^{2}}{2m}\triangledown^{2}\psi+V\psi=i\hslash\frac{\partial }{\partial t}\psi## Obviously, there is a laplacian in the kinetic energy operator. So, I was wondering if the equation was rearranged as...- bb1414
