OMG! Sounds like fun, I will have to read that one! Don't try this one it is just trouble: Well, maybe you could do it, but I have yet to succeed convincingly.

I'm back! Let's see if one can really make a long story short: Phoenix > Home Phoenix: great drivers, great weather, holy moly that fashion park is huge, Grand Canyon is a hole in the ground Snow storm @ home, slept in an airport Came home I got a response from Markos Hankin. He is...

''1) If a slide is only "10-15 seconds long", then it is not worth having! Drop it completely! Rule of thumb: design your slides to be 1 minute each. So you should plan on no more than 15 slides on the outside.'' Most of those slides where just picture slides, transition slides or just...

I am very interested in this too. What are the pros and cons of a MAC?

If this was the case, physicists wouldn't have jobs. :(

I just had a weird idea... Here is part of the web page on Dr. Walter Lewin on the MIT website: If you guys cannot help me, should I e-mail him?

If only I knew how, I don't think that I will be able to replicate that exact experimental set-up (laser, focus-thingy and that box) When I look at the video again, it seems that my slit could possibly be smaller than his??!? As stated before, I use a wrench and the slit can get so small...

A lot of theories say gravitons exist, this is the consequence of the quantisisisisisisisisisation of space. As for why string theory claims to solve those problems you mentionned, I really suggest you read again (I had to) to understand what Dr. Greene is talking about. He can explain these...

Sounds to me like you have been reading Brian Greene's books. Of my knowledge, they break down when you try to combine general relativity and quantum mechanics on such small scales, because gravity (space and time) has yet to be quantisized. I believe that they also break down (correct me...

I don't want to hijack my own thread, but we are taught nothing but mechanics in physics class (and I've made it to physics 3, you think we would have seen something else by now. There is one class, ph. 4 that is called EM though.), this might be a "there's no chance in hell you'll get into MIT...

Thank you, I will use it. I was not sure whether it was as cut and dry as it seemed or still accepted as accurate. Since you have said this, I will assume that the frequency is also equal to the energy devided by Planck's constant. I really want to avoid that. (long tangent, not so...

The De Broglie hypothesis slide essentially says: and what if matter had wave properties (that’s it) Although it was my original intent to talk about (and demonstrate) the photoelectric effect quite in depth, I want to skim over it as fast as possible. I would even like to get rid of it. It...

slides 1-3,9-11,13,14,20,21,23,25-27 (wich is exacly half) are all about 10-15 seconds long The rest is marginally longer (30seconds with very few slides around a minute) I could easily cut about 8 slides: 3, 8, (7 or 9), 11, 18, 20, 21, 27 this is about two minutes max. This could however...

I don't think it matters. Here are my priorities in order: 1.Make sure you love it (if you don't, kick yourself in the butt, repeat as needed) 2.Make sure you don't suck (if you do, stop sucking) 3.Philosophise for hours at what it means to be good at something (if you do this long enough...

I don't wish to be annoying and I know that my last post was too long, but any help would be greatly appreciated. Since the deadline is coming up, this is a bump. Any thoughts at all on the last post?
