Particles don't necessarily propagate. Physics is an empirical science. A pool ball won't pass through a gap smaller than its size, a...

russ_watters reacted to Baluncore's post in the thread Undergrad Diodes and low grade thermal energy harvesting with Like.
Look for HgCdTe (MCT) photodiodes, or LW IR LEDs. Multiply the room temperature dark current, (probably less than 10-9A) by 0.25V to...

russ_watters replied to the thread Graduate Does a moving particle count as a wave?.The first word of the next sentence of the article is "periodic". I guess what you are implying/asking is whether a wave can be...

Did the rocket speed up when moon's gravity became stronger than earth's? There was one website that a friend of mine found that showed...

russ_watters reacted to bob012345's post in the thread Artemis 2 launch - humans return to the Moon after 54 years with Like.
I often wondered if there exists any vantage point where a Hubble image of a distant object for example, could be seen similarly by the...
