I figured to let you know what I went with in the end. Upcoming September, I will indeed be starting with Computer Science at the University of Amsterdam. Thank you for your advice.

I figured it out. I misread the explanation.

At times, it can become a little overwhelming due to the large slab of text thrown at you. That may make it more difficult to filter out the essentials. You most likely missed a detail in there.

Richard Feynman has been called by some "The Great Explainer". These lectures were given to undergraduates during Feynman's time at Caltech. While I'm sure that they know more physics than the Average Joe, they are not experts in any way. That's why it sometimes may feel like popular science. I...

Homework Statement I have done a tensile test. Now that remains to do is create a table where the elongation (in mm) is shown at a specific load (in kN). I had two plates that I put through the tensile test. Both of them were 165 mm before the test. After measuring after the test, the first...

First of all, thank you for the reply. To a few of the questions, I already found the answer online On a Bachelor level, the only option would be Computer Science as CE is not taught on that level. On a Master's level, they have both Computer Engineering and Computer Science. The Master in...

Hello! My hobbies are tinkering on my computer and mathematics. Physics is not bad but I do not love it like I do mathematics. I like the logic and analytical skills that it requires. I like solving problems. I recently dropped out of Aeronautical Engineering because I simply did not like over...

Hey Greg, I didn't get all the way down but these: A First Course in General Relativity Age of Einstein Basic Concepts in Thermodynamics Basic Concepts in Thermodynamics Chapter 1 Basic Physics Board Notes for Particle Physics don't work anymore. There are probably more but like I said, I...

You'd be like Thomas Young. ;) While it is possible to take two majors (double major), I would only consider doing that if that is something that you really, really want! It will add significantly to your workload. Although, I could see that some classes between astrophysics and biophysics...

A similar question has been asked before, I'll provide you with a link: click me So yes, it is possible. I think it depends where you want to go though. What I don't understand is that why you are doing a biology major when that is not even something you want. I am more than certain that your...

Ahhhh! Like that! I get it now. Thank you :)

I knew it was the energy, I wasn't sure what it meant besides that. So if I understand correctly, it is the kinetic energy that the particles have before they are smashed into each other? And the higher the value, the more energy they have and therefore get smashed to bits even harder than they...

What does the teraelectronvolt mean when talking about collisions? Is that how hard the collision is or something? Very new to this side of physics, very cool though!

Oh yeah! I forgot about that one. Good thinking, Sammy! In that case, none would be true.

I will agree with you that only C is correct. A vertical line is indeed not a function but is a straight line, therefore A will fail. A circle has two y-coordinates for the x-value in the center (top and bottom). The vertical line test will indeed indicate a fail for it being a function. A...
