Advice on visiting CERN?
Is there anything equivalent to CERN around you? Fermilab, in the USA, for example?I might be talking nonsense. 😒 Just for another trip.- mcastillo356

Doppler effect: why do I find this exercise so difficult?
PICTURE ##(a)## The waves in front of the source are compressed, so we use the minus sign in ##\lambda=(v\pm{u_s})/f_s##. ##(b)## We calculate the received frequency using ##f_r=[(v\pm{u_r})/(v\pm{u_s})]f_s##. ##(c)## For a moving receiver, we use the same equations as in Parts ##(a)## and...- mcastillo356

Looking for movies where mathematics actually matters
¿Maybe Jurassic Park? The novel and the movie mentions fractals and chaos theory.- mcastillo356

A mechanical problem with complicated geometry
At first glance, ##m\vec{g}=\vec{F_n}## But I don't know how to solve it if I must consider geometry. ##V=\cfrac{1}{3}\pi\,r^2\,h## Neither how to deal with ##\alpha## at the bottom: ##A=\cfrac{1}{2}\text{base}\times{\text{height}}##, suposing an isosceles triangle. Interesting. What kind of...- mcastillo356

Number trick
How does my arithmetic end up with ##1089##?. I don't understand. Maybe missing something of the statement?. Attempt The statement imposes to arrange the digits so they must be always three.- mcastillo356

Number trick
If I have understood, your example ends up with ##999## Counterexample 1- ##495## 2- ##594## 3- ##594-495=99## 4- ##99## 5- ##99+99=198## ##999\neq{198}##- mcastillo356

High School Need tips to understand Relativistic Energy in Special Relativity
Last step is this way $$mc^2t^{-1/2}\bigg |_{1}^{1-\frac{u_f^2}{c^2}}=mc^2\left (\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-u_f^2/c^2}}-1\right )$$- mcastillo356

High School Need tips to understand Relativistic Energy in Special Relativity
$$\displaystyle\int_0^{u_f}m\Bigg (1-\cfrac{u^2}{c^2}\Bigg )^{-3/2}\,u\,du=m\displaystyle\int_0^{u_f}\Bigg (1-\cfrac{u^2}{c^2}\Bigg )^{-3/2}\,u\,du$$ $$1-\cfrac{u^2}{c^2}=t\Rightarrow{-\cfrac{2u}{c^2}}\,du=dt\Rightarrow{u\,du=-\cfrac{c^2}{2}\,dt}$$ $$m\Big (-\frac{c^2}{2}\Big...- mcastillo356

High School Need tips to understand Relativistic Energy in Special Relativity
As in classic mechanics, we will define kinetic energy as the work done by the net force in accelerating a particle from rest to some final velocity ##u_f##. Considering one dimension only, we have...- mcastillo356

High School How does this derivative work? And why the speed of light remains?
Let me think it over again. Your reasoning is perfect. I must be wrong somewhere, but still the change of variable in ##R-10## keeps me wondering.- mcastillo356

Why in the change of variable from ##p## to ##v## vanishes ##m##. And which is the behavior of ##c##: is this last an invariant of the derivative?. These are my doubts.- mcastillo356
