HELP ME, trapped in Aristotelian conception but must learn quantum physics
I'm beginning to grasp these concepts through a lot of studying, but I'm still left with these questions; if the wave functions squared modulus is a probability density, then what does the wave function itself describe? How are we expected to find an angular momentum and wave number when we are...- sethman737

Capacitance of a landing plane in a thunderstorm
Homework Statement An airplane flies through a thundercloud and picks up an excess charge of 1 microcoulomb. When the plane comes into land, its wings form approximately a parallel plate capacitor with the ground. What is the capacitance of this system? What is the potential of the plane...- sethman737

HELP ME, trapped in Aristotelian conception but must learn quantum physics
So I went to St. Andrews University with the unbelievably stupid idea that I would be able to "handle" their physics. My university, reading only the course description, thought that fourth semester physics was equivalent to Baylor's second semester physics. I soon realized that they only...- sethman737
