Hi Toby, did you manage to solve this as I have the same question :)

Well I primarily would like to seek a career in astrophysics or in the space industry; hence the reason I would like to study abroad in the US. I also like the idea of becoming a full time international student (I know it also looks good of your resume/CV) and I was wondering how much...

Hello everyone, I'm in quite a predicament. Currently I'm a first year Physics Bsc(Honours) Undergrad at Queen Mary University Of London. I'll be going to UCLA next year for a study abroad exchange programme and hope this will help me decide my plans but here's my question: Is it best to...

I think you misinterpreted what I wrote. I already have a confirmed placement as an exchange student. I received this offer in April. I am asking if anyone has advice on studying physics at UCLA and the US in general. since I am going to be going to UCLA next academic year

Hello all, I currently hold an offer from UCLA to study Physics for a year as part of an international exchange programme (given I come from a UK university). I was wondering if anyone has any tips and advice in studying at UCLA and generally the US approach of studying physics at university...

I think I've solved it, never mind, thanks for your offer

Homework Statement The figure shows a thin uniform rod of mass M and length 2L that is pivoted without friction about an axis through its midpoint.A horizontal light spring ofspring constant k is attached to the lower end of the rod.The spring is at its equilibrium length when the angleθ...

Homework Statement An infinitely long hollow cylinder of radius a carries a constant current I. Use Biot-Savart's law and show that the magnetic field at the centre of the cylinder is zero. Homework Equations Biot-Savart's law The Attempt at a Solution I cannot seem to come...

I don't understand what that has to do with the question. Please give points I would need to explain and how complementarity can be related with the uncertainty principle

Homework Statement Explain the idea of complementarity in the context of the double slit experiment for electrons by using the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle. Homework Equations ΔxΔp ≥ h-bar/2 The Attempt at a Solution I understand the definition of complementarity but don't...

Right, sorry, I forgot to put that in. I did write that down previously however. Thanks!

Thanks, that does help! But is my explanation complete if I consider it to be standard deviations? Is there anything else I am missing to explain?

Homework Statement Explain, using the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, how classical physics is reached a a limit of quantum physics when (h-bar) tends to 0. Homework Equations ΔxΔp(x) ≥ (h-bar)/2 The Attempt at a Solution The only reasonable answer I can formulate is the fact that when...

And in the above, doesn't the r\hat{r} just become (x\hat{i}+y\hat{j}+z\hat{k})

Thanks, but what do V and A represent?
