The way I see it is I imagine the capacitor with just two plates for simplicity. When the capacitor is charged, the plates are at the same voltage. Thus, there is no difference in voltage between the plates and so the charges don't flow. No flow of charge means no current.
ok, you know about the free electron laser right? aka the wiggler? More precisely, I want to know if the particle accelerated through the halbach array slows slows down
changing kinetic E of charged particle in magnetic field -- Halbach array
hi, I read somewhere that you can't change a charged particle's (we'll say electron) kinetic energy with a strong magnetic field, that you only change the electron's direction. I'm assuming a frictionless environment...
OOO yea, please recommend some books to me :P I'm especially interested in how the physicists derived the equations forming the theories and postulates of atoms. I'll take just about everything I can understand (I'm going to be a junior at my high school taking precalc math so anything above...
Ok, you have assured me what I feared :P Perhaps there is another way to view the atom, possibly by describing them by forces. Hey w8 a minute! quarks are basically "imaginary particles of under the influence of force carrying a charge which will cause...force" So are electrons and protons...
oops my bad, then why do electrons have charge?
I fear the answer, "because we defined it as so..."
ps, I still don't understand the pion and Rho vector Meson problem, would be helpful if someone could elaborate why a mass difference exists
oookay... I finally got myself to read through the sites. However, I am still puzzled by how specifically we found the quarks. To elaborate, I am confused as to how the particle accelerators are used and how we extract the data form these tests (how do we give analysis)... and is it possible for...
