    High School Is Normal Force a Contact Force Despite Atomic Repulsion?

    Guys I was just wondering if normal force is a contact force. Obviously it is considered a contact force but it also has something to do with the repelling of atoms. In my mind, normal force is a fundamental truth, but technically, are two objects touching or is there a minuscule space between...

    Is a 10.0 earthquake actually possible?

    Sorry didn't look at any previous quotes LOL 😉 :oldbiggrin: Too manyo0)

    Is a 10.0 earthquake actually possible?

    As said by the following website, an earthquake of magnitude 10 would need a fault extending around most of the planet: https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/can-megaquakes-really-happen-a-magnitude-10-or-larger?qt-news_science_products=0#qt-news_science_products

    Undergrad Do Massive Objects Like the Sun Deflect Neutrinos?

    To your question, general relativity tells us that mass bends space-time. So light and neutrinos are deflected by massive objects.

    Undergrad Can Majorana neutrinos explain antimatter asymmetry?

    Thanks, but would you say that a fourth neutrino type is possible based on these experiments?

    Undergrad Can Majorana neutrinos explain antimatter asymmetry?

    Please give appropriate references. "A thing I heard" is very vague. I heard about this experiment called Liquid Scintillator Neutrino Detector(LSND). Apparently, the experiment made no sense in relation to other neutrino experiments such as Super-K in terms of oscillation. Basically the...

    Undergrad Can Majorana neutrinos explain antimatter asymmetry?

    I was looking into neutrinos and found that a man named Ettore Majorana proposed neutrinos and antineutrinos are the same thing. If this could be true, antineutrinos emitted during double beta decay could annihilate one another and vanish. However, this would violate lepton number conservation...

    Undergrad What is jounce used for in physics applications?

    I understand how jounce is the fourth derivative of position vector, but I don't understand is how it is actually used in physics. I know it differentiates jerk, but what does this help physicists to understand? The following is an equation that explains jounce: So how exactly is this...

    Undergrad Can gravitons help unify quantum mechanics and general relativity?

    W and Z bosons, gluons, and photons are all gauge bosons that have been found. Since the graviton can be connnected to atoms and mass in certain ways, I think that CERN may eventually prove the graviton(if real) through smashing atoms that, supposedly, have a graviton orbiting them. Could...
