My experience was that Zoom was hated by the students, the teachers were not getting feedback from them and very little learning took place.

I am concerned about using AI to replace teachers. Children seem to have too much exposure to screen time - we are running into...

I remember on the last time a manned space craft went behind the Moon, the radio signal did not restore as soon as the crew could see...

X-rays are not emitted below 20kV accelerating voltage so far as I know, so it was only when colour TV started that it became an issue...

I suppose the invention of high inertia without high mass is analogous to discovering high permeability cores.

The device can add inertia to the suspension travel without adding very much actual mass. If the suspension is thought of in an...

I thought the graticule was placed in the eyepiece so is not subject to the full magnification?

Yes, I agree with #4. An ordinary rope often has three strands, which are the bunches of fibres, and which are twisted around each...

If you pulse one carrier at both 5Hz and 8Hz you are, by doing this, causing a mixing process between the two pulse trains. In effect...

Yes. In the UK we are taught Fleming's Left Hand Rule for motor effect and Fleming's Right Hand Rule for Generator Effect. These rules...

I think the question was essentially why are even harmonics present with a stopped pipe.

These are my ideas on this question. A very interesting topic. The pipe is excited by a series of brief, unidirectional pulses which...

The energy stored might be sufficient to cause a risk to the heart. It is allowable to touch a Van de Graaff generator but not to add a...
