In my physiology (biological science) class it was explained that, upon eating some food source, some energy is converted into a useful form for the body, and some energy is lost in the form of heat. The lecturer didn't explain what form this heat is in.
I thought that 'heat' must be an EM...
I'm writing a piece of software, however, my math skills are VERY rusty at the moment.
The problem is as follows:
There is a journey consisting of 256 steps
The person, can either i) walk, or ii) hop
The person can choose what to do at each step
I want to compute a list of all possible...
I don't know much about physics but just had this idea:
As I understand it the HUP prevents good accuracy of a small object's momentum and position at the same time.
Assume trying to measure the momentum and position of a single atom.
In theory, can't we get a very good idea of both of...
Ah yes. I am confused. I saw it on a TV documentary, but I remembered incorrectly.
Maybe my question should be rephrased:
Where does the tremendous energy come from when Hydrogen undergoes nuclear fusion?
I just do not understand how large quantities of energy are produced from this.
Hydrogen Fusion = High energy?
Where does the energy come from when a Hydrogen atom is fused?
Is the energy stored in some part (proton, neutron, electron)?
Thank you if someone can give me some idea about this. I guess it is about the strong nuclear force, but I'd like to know in a bit more...
