thats true, i know i didnt supply nearly enough information i just wanted to see if anyone here is hardcore into cryptography and would try to crack it would it help if i said that it's a plato quote?

I made up this encryption method on an airplane, and so far no one in my dorm has gotten it. Since I live in a college dorm, it may or may not be a good testing area, so I figured I'd try it out here. PRMDC JKIHF LQHEH UHMRZ JKIQG WIYHA

What jobs would be available to me if I went on post-grad with a mechanical engineering degree and got a masters and eventually a phd, specializing in robotics? I am interested in knowing, so i can decide if i should go to grad school.

Hello. I am looking for an equation editor to use on this site, othersites, for homework, etc. I am not sure if physics forums has one built in or what, but I see many people writing out cool-looking equations without using ^ or * or /. Can someone tell me where to find a good, easy equation...

I just posted this as a reply, but i figured Id open a new thread for discussion. correct me if I am wrong here. according to the double slit experiment, a photon takes every possible path to it's destination, causing it to interfere with itself, right? My first question is, does each...

I actually visited Delaware yesterday morning, and they have great facilities and one of the best undergrad research programs available. Id really like to get into undergrad research, so as of now I am leaning towards Delaware, but I have yet to tour PSU's facilities, so that could change...

I have recently been accepted to the University of Delaware Mechanical Engineering Honors Program, and the Penn State University Non-Honors Mechanical Engineering Program. From a strictly engineering point of view, which university is better? I have two weeks to make a decision, and I am dying...

so in that equation, the unit vectors represent direction only, since (X2-X1) and so on would represent magnitude. I think I've got it now. thank you to everyone for your help.

Haha I feel very ignorant here, but given my formal background in physics, i guess I am ignorant. What does the ^ above the R represent, as opposed to the vector arrows?

Thank you very much, Shyboy. Just to clarify, what do the arrows above F and R represent?

At the risk of sounding unintentionally arrogant, I am going to assume that I need to be more specific when i say 'n-body problem' The n-body problem is the supposedly unsolvable method of calculating the orbit of more than two bodies influencing each other through gravity. It is currently...

this is just a thought I've been toying around in my head for the past 6 minutes after reading one of the posts. gravity warps space and time. commonly recognized fact. but, this feature of gravity is exclusive to gravity. the strong and weak forces, and electromagnetism do not display...

i am attempting to find a solution for the n-body problem, but i don't know the equations for gravity in three dimensions. if someone could post them for me, i would be most appreciative. thank you also, any advice as to how to approach this problem would be appreciated as well
