renormalize's latest activity
-
Rrenormalize replied to the thread Undergrad The imaginary part of the wave function.I think you meant to write:$$-\frac{\hbar^2}{2 m}\nabla^2\phi_n+V\phi_n=E_n\phi_n$$

Rrenormalize replied to the thread Construction How do I fix a hedgehog enclosure that keeps getting too humid.Silica gel (##\text{Si}\text{O}_2)?##
-
Rrenormalize replied to the thread Undergrad The imaginary part of the wave function.I don't see that at all. Consider, e.g., Griffiths & Schroeter, Introduction to Quantum Mechanics (3rd ed.) in which the authors solve...
-
Rrenormalize replied to the thread Magnitude of buoyant force in fluids of different densities.But elementary physics texts regularly use shorthand terms like "point mass" (not "point object with mass") and "point charge" (not...
-
Rrenormalize replied to the thread History Biographies, History, Philosophy of Physics.Actually, it's another paper by a philosopher discussing quantum physics across 25 pages of dense verbiage and no math whatsoever. Could...

RNot yet, here in Italy it was quite bedtime when I saw the email notification of the reply. I will probably write today, but before that...
-
RHello, I certainly searched (even with Google, that I normally avoid) but I used "lathe" as a search term (since it's the machine that...

Rrenormalize replied to the thread Machining Aerogel.Did you do any online searching before posting your question? The first link that comes up for me on Google for the search query...
-
Rrenormalize replied to the thread What type of energy is actually stored inside an atom?.Sure, but what's your point? Rather than EM energy, the gravitational energy of the big bang is much more likely to have produced the...
-
Rrenormalize replied to the thread What type of energy is actually stored inside an atom?.Yes, I definitely agree with that statement, since what we now called the "Schwinger effect"...

Rrenormalize reacted to PeroK's post in the thread What type of energy is actually stored inside an atom? with
Like.
PS and electromagetic radiation can produce an electron-positron pair. See, for example... -
Rrenormalize replied to the thread High School Question about the color of a thin film.Yes, your reasoning is correct. Take a look at: https://www.soapbubble.dk/en/articles/thin-film-interference which shows a half...

Rrenormalize reacted to Guineafowl's post in the thread Electric power distribution from powerplant to homes with
Like.
Ah, I did miss something out there. How about, for the last line: Because the power loss from heating in the lines ##P=I^2{R}## ... -
Rrenormalize replied to the thread Electric power distribution from powerplant to homes.Agreed, but also beware of answers that are too "hand-waving" or "dumbed-down". Again, quoting you: But by that logic one could just as...

Rrenormalize replied to the thread Electric power distribution from powerplant to homes.Sure, but the OP specifically asked: That's the basic question I aimed to answer in my post #9.
