I have a question concerning the differentiation between the zigzag and armchair pattern of graphene. Specifically concerning the fact that zigzag edges produce metallic properties and armchair edges producing semiconducting/metallic properties. How does this relate to the orientation of...

Yes, this would make sense. I guess their use of the word velocity threw me off.

I am just reading through this free online textbook and it seems to me that there is a mistake on page 24. http://www.anselm.edu/internet/physics/cbphysics/downloadsI/cbPhysicsIa18.pdf#page=23 He describes the muzzle velocity, which he defines as the relative velocity between two objects...

Very soon I will be applying to universities and I have found the destination I wish to study at. This location would be Scotland. Has anyone studied at a university in Scotland before? Been to one? Or (the most important question I have) could you recommend a specific one? After having...

I have heard multiple times that where you study and get you bachelor is not that important, at least relative to the importance of where you do your graduate studies. How much influence should the factor of a university having some prestige in the field of physics have on the decision making of...

Another question: What formula could I use to describe the states of energy of those two pendulums, specifically referring to the point where they have they same amplitude.

Homework Statement (A) [PLAIN]http://remote.physik.tu-berlin.de/farm/uploads/pics/Gekoppeltes_Pendel_01.png What happens when you swing pendulum P1? (B) How does the position of the spring affect the outcome? (C) If the length of the string of one pendulum was longer than the...
