Undergrad Noob with a question about lightspeed travel.
I'm no expert, but from what I can tell, the apparent difference in time would be made up during the acceleration up to and the deceleration from 0.999c. Otherwise you would end up with paradoxes. One I can think of off the top of my head if the time difference was not compensated for is a...- Cinimod

When Is u(-x) a Solution to Schrödinger's Equation?
\frac{\partial^2 \psi_1}{\partial x^2} \psi_2 = \frac{\partial^2 \psi_2}{\partial x^2} \psi_1 \frac{1}{\psi_1}\frac{\partial^2 \psi_1}{\partial x^2} = \frac{1}{\psi_2}\frac{\partial^2 \psi_2}{\partial x^2} Which can be split up into two equations... \frac{1}{\psi_1}\frac{\partial^2...- Cinimod

When Is u(-x) a Solution to Schrödinger's Equation?
For the last part, just divide both sides of the equation by \psi_1 \psi_2 and then you will end up with two separated differential equations. All you then need to do is show that they have the same general solution, and that there is just a phase factor between them. The other stuff looks...- Cinimod

Medical The worst disease ever in human history
lol. There is some serious religion/atheist bashing going on which I personally find quite amusing. I'm not going to get involved in it, since the original question was not "which has killed more people... religion or lack of religion". With respect to the original question, could genetic...- Cinimod

Changing filesystem of USB drives
I found some USB removable storage drives a few days ago, but they won't work on windows. Windows acts as though they haven't been plugged in, so I tried having a look at them using linux, and I can see everything to do with them etc. I now know that the filesystem used is "vfat" (i've never...- Cinimod

Get the contents of a file, character by character
o right. sorry. int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int i; char string[*argv[3]],c; if(argc < 3) { usage(argv[0]); exit(1); } ifstream b_file(argv[2]); b_file >> c; cout << c; cin.get(); } void usage(char *cmd) { printf("Usage: %s <file to read with complete path>...- Cinimod

Get the contents of a file, character by character
I am stuck on a program where I need to open a file, and print out the contents to a screen, but at the same time, I want to save each character in the file (spaces included) to an element of an array. However, I am having a problem opening the file and going through it character by character (I...- Cinimod

I want a new graphics card, but don't know if PCI slots will be ok
I was thinking of buying a new graphics card, but I had a quick look in my computer earlier today, and I have some PCI slots on the motherboard, but all the new graphics cards use PCI express. Will there be a problem trying to install a new graphics card on the motherboard I already have?- Cinimod

Graduate Can Divergence Exist Without Magnetic Monopoles?
I always thought that the absence of magnetic monopoles was just the assumption that they don't exist, based on the fact no1 has ever observed one, and so the 'law' that magnetic monopoles don't exist (or at least aren't thought to exist) was just the result of physical observation.- Cinimod

Using Runge Kutta Method for T.I.S.E in Electron Motion Approximation
I would be very very grateful to have a look at your program, I will study euler's method, see if that helps. I understand the principle of how the ruger kutta method works, but all the examples I have involve 1st order differential equations, I have a second order, and I'm not sure how you deal...- Cinimod

Using Runge Kutta Method for T.I.S.E in Electron Motion Approximation
Homework Statement I really am desperate for help on this one. I need to use the runge kutta method to approximate the motion of an electron in the potential below. The T.I.S.E is known, and I have to try and use the runge kutta method to find the wavefunction of the particle. V(x) =...- Cinimod

How to Find the Ground State Energy Using the Shooting Method?
Homework Statement The wave function of a particle satisfies the time-independent Schrödinger equation. If the potential is symmetric and has the form V(x) = \inf |x|>1.0 V(x) = \frac{\hbar^2V_0}{2m} |x|<0.2 V(x) = 0 Elsewhere Using the shooting method, I need to find the...- Cinimod
