PeroK reacted to Filip Larsen's post in the thread Undergrad Practical cosmic speed limit for macroscopic objects? with
Informative.
Indeed. Breakthrough Starshot comes to mind. -
PeroK replied to the thread High School Does acceleration affect impact energy vs constant velocity?.Your understanding is not correct.
-
PeroK replied to the thread Announcement PF Member Awards 2025 Coming Soon!.An award for crackpot of the year would be fiercely contested.

PeroK reacted to JimWhoKnew's post in the thread Undergrad The imaginary part of the wave function with
Like.
Introductory textbooks usually deal a lot with time-independent Hamiltonians of the form$$H=\frac{\mathbf{P}^2}{2 m}+V(\mathbf{x})\quad... -
PeroK reacted to renormalize's post in the thread Undergrad The imaginary part of the wave function with Like.
I don't see that at all. Consider, e.g., Griffiths & Schroeter, Introduction to Quantum Mechanics (3rd ed.) in which the authors solve...

PeroK reacted to JimWhoKnew's post in the thread Undergrad Klein-Gordon equation in the nonrelativistic limit with Like.
From relativity, having the rest mass as the limit of the energy when the kinetic contribution goes to zero, is a welcome feature...

PeroK reacted to JimWhoKnew's post in the thread Undergrad Klein-Gordon equation in the nonrelativistic limit with Like.
Try to back-substitute$$\phi=\psi\exp{\left[\frac{i}{\hbar}m_0c^2t\right]}$$in equation 1.32 . What equation does ##\psi## obey in this...

PeroK reacted to Ibix's post in the thread High School Estimates — True Size of the Universe? with Like.
The problem with this one is the finite size. People conflate the increase in volume of the finite lump of dough with the expansion...
-
This was back when people needed talent. Today they stick any pretty in slutty clothes, put a microphone in her hands and process the...

PeroK reacted to robphy's post in the thread Undergrad Derive the Lorentz transformation in Minkowski four-dimensional spacetime spacetime with Like.
First, I acknowledge what you say about spacetime diagrams being confusing. So, some of my efforts have tried to develop additional...

PeroK replied to the thread High School Estimates — True Size of the Universe?.This is a property of an infinite space. And infinite sets in general. For example, in one sense there are twice as many whole numbers...

PeroK reacted to A.T.'s post in the thread Undergrad Why if net force=zero, moment at any point is same? with Like.
If ##\vec{F_{net}}## is the net force, and ##\vec{M_{net,a}}## is the net moment around the point ##\vec{a}##, then the net moment...
