    Admissions Question about applying for jobs before graduating

    and for non-local jobs >_> I'm graduating in May(the 11th to be exact), and was wondering about a couple of things. Say I see a tempting job opening somewhere that requires the BS, is it still ok for me to apply and note that I'm getting it PDQ? If not I kinda feel like I'm sitting on my...

    Am I doing this torque on dipole problem right?

    Think I got it, I'll just put in my own work for shiggles Well no, I don't know Latex worth a damn, suffice it to say I used the formula for B for a magnetic dipole sensed by another dipole, with the angle between them being pi/2, and ultimately I got N=-I^2ua^2b^2/(4r^3) in the x-hat...

    Am I doing this torque on dipole problem right?

    Just a thought here, buuuut isn't the B field of a circular current just a straight line going through its center(orientated with the right hand rule)? So...would there even be a torque on the square loop? Edit: No wait that's totally wrong

    Am I doing this torque on dipole problem right?

    Homework Statement You've got a circular loop with a steady current I and radius 'a' a distance r from a square current carrying loop with sides of 'b' and current I, r >>> a or b(and they're arranged in such a way as you can think of the circular loop's dipole as pointing up, and the square...

    How Does Potential Difference Work with Electron Flow?

    Anyways, to actually answer the question, I think of an object with mass in a gravitational field and how it will travel "down" the gravitational potential. A difference in gravitational potential is easily visualizable as say...a hill! in a similar fashion a positive electric charge in an...

    How Does Potential Difference Work with Electron Flow?

    The work done in moving a +ve charge from lower to higher potential is called Potential difference Negati...er, no, un-affirmative the work done is just that. But that's a little abstract a concept, so we normally look at the work done per unit time, which is the power. So if you use...

    How is the First-Order Perturbation Energy Related to Magnetic Susceptibility?

    Text is by Ziemann Ok, thanks for that, but I don't see how even knowing the first order perturbation energy gets you that expression for susceptibility

    How is the First-Order Perturbation Energy Related to Magnetic Susceptibility?

    Not really a problem, I'm reading these 10 pages from a solid-state book for a professor, and it's a little over my head. Excuse the lack of LATEX but I copied it from another board I posted, and if you can help you likely know the equations involved anyways. I'm not expected to understand it...

    How much credit would YOU have given me?

    A final, so I guess I'll never know :( senior level solid state class, 20 point question, I figure 10 for the explanation, and however many he feels like giving for getting to the voltage? I know, I obsess over how I did on a test after the fact, stressful habit

    How much credit would YOU have given me?

    I had to explain the Hall Effect and derive the Hall coefficient I didn't recall what the coeff. was but my explanation was solid and I was able to derive the Hall voltage, Vh=BI/net (t was thickness of plate, that's n and e, not the word net >_>) I wrote that I didn't know what the...

    A magnetic induction question

    Homework Statement A square of edge a lies in the xy plane with the origin at its center. Find the value of the magnetic induction at any point on the z axis when a current I' circulates around the square. Homework Equations B=u/4pi * lineint[(I'*ds' x R)/R^3)] The Attempt at a...

    Ooo template Method of image charges

    Homework Statement Two semi-infinite grounded plane conductors that intersect at the origin, with an angle of 60 degrees between them. A point charge of q is located some distance from the origin, and bisects the angle between the two conductors, where would the image charges be and what...

    Asking a professor about doing research for them

    Well that was easy I start over the break. Thanks!

    Asking a professor about doing research for them

    I figure I should just approach the professor and ask if there's any research or work I could do for them next semester. That simple?
