    What Two Speed Measurements Do Observers in Relative Motion Always Agree On?

    So, it will be 2 speeds...just relative to each other..now that makes sense...thanks!

    Comparing Bohr's Theory and Wave Mechanics

    Homework Statement 1. If Bohr’s theory and wave-mechanics predicts the same results for energies of hydrogen atom states, then why do we need wave mechanics with its greater complexity? 2. Compare Bohr’s theory and wave mechanics. In what respect do they differ? 3. Why don’t we observe...

    What Two Speed Measurements Do Observers in Relative Motion Always Agree On?

    What two speed measurements do two observers in relative motion always agree on? In my opinion, one will be relative velocity...but can't figure out the other..? Any ideas? Also, photons of light have zero mass. How is it possible that they momentum? Cuz Momentum=mv...so if m is zero...

    Simple Harmonic Motion in daily life

    Yes, periodic..I agree...that too if the same amount of time is taken each time and no obstacle is in the way..

    Simple Harmonic Motion in daily life

    Very good point...I would agree with you there..SHM can be possible if it 'the perfect world'...otherwise it would be simple speed time story...

    C/C++ Can Array Overruns Lead to Catastrophic Failures?

    Thanks a lot. I have the concept clear in my head now. Cheers:)

    I have posted my arguments...or my idea...kindly elaborate and share yours:)

    Simple Harmonic Motion in daily life

    Ok, for a trig function I need time, right? But how would I relate the 2 together?

    Simple Harmonic Motion in daily life

    Thanks for the responses..it is actually a discussion question. As for my attempt, here is what I think: I think it is not an example of SHM because SHM depends on time which is constant. Going from uni to home and back is not constant time and the distance also may not always be constant. Also...

    C/C++ Can Array Overruns Lead to Catastrophic Failures?

    Can over running of array lead to the catastrophic failures? If ‘Yes’ then why does not C++ provide bound checking on array operations and who is responsible to prevent array overruns?

    Simple Harmonic Motion in daily life

    Do you think that the daily movement of a student from home to university then again from university to home is an example of simple harmonic motion ? Please give the arguments in support of your point of view.
