    Classical Comprehensive books about the history of physics/mathematics

    I thank you both for your answers. Unfortunately the books have to be in English (or Greek :P ) I know some french Spanish and German too but it would be torture for me to read volumes in those languages. And it should not be a "simple" textbook about a principal(e.g classical physics) they...

    Classical Comprehensive books about the history of physics/mathematics

    I am in search of one or more books that describe the progress in the field of physics (especially during the 18th 19th and 20th century) not only by mentioning the names of lead scientists and the abstract of their work but also have some deeper insights if possible (some math too) last but not...

    What is Mathematics Sense? Exploring Its Meaning

    See here is an other problem that has to do with principals... The question is what is math sense (if there is) and how to evolve one. and yes since you pass your math exams it means that you have a math sense and yes you would not pass those exams if you didnt have determination. But...

    What is Mathematics Sense? Exploring Its Meaning

    For me its about getting as elementary as it gets in principals and allocating your thought in respect to each of those principals. (also there must be an enternal research to validate and revalidate those principals and search if they are in essence a product of more elementary principals etc)...

    From applied mathematics to physics.

    Thanks for your responses :) well you seem to be the lazy one and rude as well... 1st I did thank ZapperZ for his post 2nd I didnt say that I will not read the topic on the link he gave me infact I already mentioned that I will do so 3rd I just finished reviewing 500 pages of theory on which I...

    From applied mathematics to physics.

    Thank you for your post. Something more acute to my question precise and quick? I just want to know if its theoretically and practically possible to go directly for a Ph.D in physics (USA/England) having a degree in applied mathematics I will read the topic on your link but currently I can't...

    Self-Taught Physics: Start Here

    Well if you want to learn just what's going on in physics then just read the above given recommendations (also the universe in a nutshell by Hawking is a goodone ) If you want really to teach yourself physics (forget about getting a job without a degree) you need to get some basic mathematical...

    From applied mathematics to physics.

    I am currently an undergraduate student at a department of applied mathematics. Its a 4 years (240 ects) program in which I can take lots of physics classes directly from the department of physics of my university as well. The thing is that I start to believe that I like more to do physics...

    Why Does Salt Spray Out of Water in a Shaker Experiment?

    Note: I used a shaker and shaked the mixture in a very intense way for a few minutes, also the signs may start to show up within few hours but to completely see the salt on the outside of the glasswalls you have to wait 1-3 days + (I don't know if that matters) my mixture had filled the 3.5/4...

    Why Does Salt Spray Out of Water in a Shaker Experiment?

    If I understood your description right then this should create a ring or a belt of salt just above the surface of the solution.. I am talking about salt signs a few CM higher than the surface (On the inner walls of the glass) and on the OUTER walls of the glass its like it crawls up in streams...

    Why Does Salt Spray Out of Water in a Shaker Experiment?

    Just try and do it yourself using a mixer or a shaker or whatever starurate the water with salt pu it on a glass cup and leave it there for some hours its cheap and easy no special safety measurments or gear are nessecary

    Why Does Salt Spray Out of Water in a Shaker Experiment?

    I am talking about a saturated mixture.. I am talking about salt appearing NOT >ON< the surface.. but ABOVE it on the inside glass walls (of the cup) and eventually on the outside aswell... its like small salt particles defining gravity or like bacteria spreading but in a much faster rate :P

    Why Does Salt Spray Out of Water in a Shaker Experiment?

    I have done a small experiment I dissolved salt into normal tap water using a shaker... I put as much salt as the specific quantity of water could dissolve no more no less... I left the cup there for a while and after some time I saw that salt was spreading ABOVE the water level and OUTSIDE of...

    At which depth could the existance of gold being plausible?

    thank you all for your responses I would like to add that when i used the word "formed" i didnt mean how is gold created in terms of mater i was talking more about after its creation in terms of consetration also about the mine budget i used also the word "relative" because i knew it would not...

    At which depth could the existance of gold being plausible?

    does this even make sense? I mean is gold located/formed in a specific depth range? or it virtually could be found anywhere? the next question how to setup a relatively small budget mine with underground levels/rooms? :D
