    Calculation of O2 dissolved in water

    Hello. Some more information would have helped me form a proper answer to your questions, but with what has been given I have tried my best. I have tried to include explanations so that each step makes sense. Hopefully it isn't too lengthy though. To answer your 1st question, the equivalent...

    How Should One Learn Synthetic Chemistry and Predict Reaction Pathways?

    Hello. I am trying to learn about synthetic chemistry, which I have so far found rather difficult to learn without guidance. So, in reality this is two questions, which I think are most appropriate to include together. First, can you provide an order that I should learn topics of synthetic...

    Exploring Magnetic Mirrors in Fusion Reactors

    I'm understanding now. Thank you so much! Is there a textbook on this division of physics that you recommend? I've taught myself most of what I know about physics, although what I know may be little compared to you all. It seems to me that I can learn easier through textbooks than from ordinary...

    Exploring Magnetic Mirrors in Fusion Reactors

    Sorry to keep bothering you. I just really want to understand. Do I only consider the velocity component of the particle that is perpendicular to the magnetic field? If an electron is traveling diagonally in relation to the magnetic field, do I only consider the electron's velocity...

    Exploring Magnetic Mirrors in Fusion Reactors

    Does the Lorentz force curve the path of the electron into a circle, but it travels in a helix because the electron is moving from the high strength magnetic field hills down into the valley? What happens when the particle is not perpendicular to the magnetic field? Also, does something...

    Exploring Magnetic Mirrors in Fusion Reactors

    I hope I'm formatting this correctly. To the earlier response: yes, I did read the Wikipedia article before asking the question. In the Wikipedia article, it illustrates an electron spiraling around what I take to be a magnetic field line. It makes sense to me that the electron's momentum is...

    Exploring Magnetic Mirrors in Fusion Reactors

    Hello! I hope that i am doing this right. This is my first post of a question. So, I've been reading about a design for a fusion reactor called a "Polywell". The Polywell, as I understand it, works by sending electron beams to the device's center which suck in protons/deuterium/tritium/etc. so...

    How Can I Get the Most Out of This Science Forum?

    Hello! I'm a new member here. I've used this forum in the past for answers, but had not made an account to ask my own questions. Now, however, I have many questions that I have been unable to find answers to. I will try my best to follow the forums guidelines for how to ask questions.
