Undergrad Why Does Water Temperature Vary with Depth in the Ocean?
I know that water is the most dense at 4 degrees celsius. That's why water at the bottom of a sea has that temperature. But how did it get that temperatur in the first place and why does the energy not distribute itself in such a way that the temperature is the same through? Is it the particles... -

High School Disentanglemt of a system of particles
Is it possible for an entangled system of particles to be disentangled at a distance, without making them interact directly with each other?- befj0001

Graduate What happens to entropy when kinetic energy increases in a system?
Entropy is basically a measure of the number of avaible microstates a system can have, given a certain energy of the system. It is a measure of the uncertainty of the exact state of the system. Now, suppose we have a box with a single particle inside and with the only internal energy being the...- befj0001

Undergrad Lorentz Transformation: Writing in Different Forms
ok, so the ## M_{\rho\sigma} ## represents a matrix and not an element of the matrix? i.e., ## M_{10} ## is a matrix? But where is the time parameter in the first expression?- befj0001

Undergrad Lorentz Transformation: Writing in Different Forms
I don't understand why we can write the elements of the lorentransformation in the form ## {\Lambda}^{\mu}\:_{\nu} = [exp(-\frac{i}{2}{\omega}^{\rho\sigma}M_{\rho\sigma})]^{\mu}\:_{\nu} ## I know that we can write it in the form ## {\Lambda} = exp(t\Theta) ## where ## \Theta ## are elements...- befj0001

Undergrad Non-relativistic limit of the Lagrangian
I think the relativistivictic limit should be the expression above, but only what is inside the parenteses, still with the minus sign there. That is the classical expression for the lagrangian.- befj0001

Undergrad Non-relativistic limit of the Lagrangian
Why does the following Lagrangian not have the correct non-relativistic limit? It is correct except for the derivative of proper time with respect time. But that factor goes to 1 so why is the expression wrong? ## L = -(\frac{1}{2}mu^{\mu}u_{\mu} + qu^{\mu}A_{\mu})\frac{d\tau}{dt} ##- befj0001

How to Solve the Creation Operator Problem in Problem 3a?
on part 3b) is it correct to argue that since you integrate away the x-dependence in the number operator that according to the Heisenberg equation [H,N]=0 since both the partial derivative and total derivative of N is zero?- befj0001
