    Other Can a normal IQ person study Physics?

    A guy came up with different tests and found out that there was a correlation between a person's ability to score in them. Meaning if a person did good in one test, he would do good in others as well. He hypothesed there was some basic quality because of which this happened. He compiled these...

    Why has PF stopped with the ancient traditions?

    I actually listened to rammstein a lot in high school. One of my favourite non english bands. Ooh nostalgia. I'm going to dig them up on YouTube and listen again today.

    Why has PF stopped with the ancient traditions?

    Oh yea it happens. I like listening to all languages songs. I try to concentrate on music alone,, no lyrics. Although translation is always good. So German, French, Japanese, they're all good. This song, for example, won't sound nearly as good if it was translated in English. So... Me likes..

    Why has PF stopped with the ancient traditions?

    Why has PF stopped with the ancient traditions?

    I was scanning the new members forum. I scrolled back till November start. I noticed something odd. Back when I joined, old members used to ask the new members about their favourite fish,, and a certain ritual was done after that. Why don't we do it any more? It was so fun!

    Do theoretical physicists also work in labs?

    Yupp. Theory is instantly put into trash when experiments disprove it. Experimental verification has the final say in deciding the fate of a theory. The problem is experiments aren't always possible. The energy requirements could be too high or time taken for computation could be greater than...

    Why are dimensions always at right angles?

    Ok I thought orthogonal meant 90 degrees. Sorry about that. But orthogonality test would be dot product? I'm not well read about relativity so I won't make further arguments.

    Why are dimensions always at right angles?

    He's talking about relativity. It assumes a 4 dimensional space where time is another dimension. Time dilation tell us that time doesn't flow at equal rate depending on your velocity and gravitational potential. So time rate has to be measures. This is simplified by choosing a 4 dimensional...
