But do I really need to connect both ends to ground and 5V for a single 5m strip?

18w / 60 LEDs Also I read the adafruit section on powering their neopixels and all they say about high amps is that I may have discoloration at the end of the strip, nothing on anything frying...

But the isn't the included connector just for convenience? I could just solder my bigger AWG wire that supports 20A directly on the first LED?

Hi, I want to buy 5 meter 60 LEDs/m LED strip here and this is the recommended circuit. The strip needs 5V. In their description they say 60 LED is 18W so I need 20A DC power supply. Can I send 20A 5V DC directly in the strip? Will it fry the strip? Also, for the ground wiring, is this where...

Hello, I need to work on the thermodynamics theory of information, but I can't find real applications aside from the resolution of the maxwell's demon and the szilard engine. I would need more applications... Any idea?

The mathematical tools presented in the book are analysis of algorithms, asymptotic analysis, complexity analysis, linear algebra and statistics. I suppose this is the core of it. Do you have suggestion of courses I should follow for analysis of algorithms, asymptotic analysis and complexity...

Hello, I'm currently in a physics/CS undergrad program and I would like to continue to graduate level in artificial intelligence. But recently I started to browse artificial intelligence papers and discovered that they are very mathematical. I ask myself if I should switch to maths/CS undergrad...

Hello, I have to work on the relation between the thermodynamics and the information theory on both historical and theoretical aspects. My work will not contain proof. It will contain the most important equations and descriptive paragraphs. I need to talk about the relation between Clausius and...

Hi, I'm currently in a physics/computer sciences dual degree and I will finish it in 2 years if everything goes fine. I am interested in physics and computer sciences, and my options after my degree is either to continue in CS or physics. My ideal job would be a researcher but I don't know if I...

It's funny I find your comment quite pointless :smile:

Well in fact it may not do anything because nothing is traveling faster than c, it's just the collision of the 2 lines, and nothing is wrong with that.

Homework Statement [/B] A circle of radius R travels in the x direction with velocity c. The center of the circle is at -R at t = 0. a vertical line rests at x = 0. Find dr/dt, where r is the position of the intersection between the circle and the vertical line, and explain if this violates 2nd...

Waves and oscillations by W.F. Smith But then I'm exposed to better physicist who understood better than me and know how to solve problems :nb)

Hi, my teacher is pretty bad at teaching, my book offers problems with no solutions and poor examples, and there is no solutions for the problems on the internets. Does anyone know a manual/pdf/website where I can find problems and solutions for waves and oscillations? I have read the book and...

Thanks for your suggestions! My uni program already has algorithm in it so I think i'll focus on something else. Also, these strange languages are just for fun right? Nobody uses them seriously? :nb)
