    Find an expression for a magnetic field from a given electric field

    Here this is my attempt : Reference Textbook : Zangwill's Modern Electrodynamics I stuck at the last step , I really have no idea what to do next.

    Courses I think I won't get an A in Quantum Mechanics I

    My most annoying habit is I don't know when to skip "the hard part" of the exam and do the easier next part so this often leave me with little time to get more score.

    Courses I think I won't get an A in Quantum Mechanics I

    This is by far the hardest undergraduate class I have ever take. The majority of class got less than 40% on the midterm. Unfortunately, I was sick during the exam hours too ,so it's hard for me to concentrate and think clearly Thank god,the professor uses the norm-referenced grading and My...

    Studying How can I deal with a class that moves EXTREMELY fast?

    The course's midterm exam is over. I realize I'm going to get a not very high marks due to poor sleep and exhaustion. This also leads me to unfortunately misderived a maxwell-ampere law. I will accept the outcomes but I will try to learn and reflect from it. I'm planning an intensive...

    Need help with calculating a Cv in PHYWE's Heat Capacity of gases

    I have tried a dimensional analysis with my units and yes...they are indeed consistent in the form of (J*K^-1*mol^-1). I tried converting all of them to their SI units and plugged them in the equation but the result doesn't get anywhere near 26. I think I'm getting stuck in the endless...

    Need help with calculating a Cv in PHYWE's Heat Capacity of gases

    I've conducted this experiment yesterday. The main goal of this experiment is to find a gas constant R and compare it with its theoretical counterpart but I get stuck in calculating a Cv so I tried to find out what's wrong with my calculations by trying to calculate a Cv from the given data...

    Studying How can I deal with a class that moves EXTREMELY fast?

    I have no other options but to deal with it because if I drop this class I'll have to spend one more year in the school. It's worse than getting a C for me. I think this is a good opportunity to review and improve my study and work habits. I'll make this class my top priority and I'll use...

    Studying How can I deal with a class that moves EXTREMELY fast?

    I'm taking an E/M II class this semester and this class is well known for how fast the class moves. It's lightning fast. The professor literally crams 2 hours worth of materials in 50 minutes. The information flow rate is insane just like drinking from a proverbial firehose. Sometime...

    How to not sound like I'm trying to "educate" or "lecture" someone?

    Whenever I try to explain something to some people. They often remark me I'm trying to "lecture" or "educate" them (they're all dean's listers).It surprised me because I thought they would be a quite open-minded folks. I tried to fix this by keeping my ego in checks , speaking in front of mirrow...

    Why does dating seem so easy for other people but not me?

    I tried to talk with a woman (in platonic way) but I'm run out of topics to talk with her and most topic often end up sound very awkward. Like this one : Me : Hi , have you ever listened to ted talk. Her : Nope , I haven't ...several hours latter... Me : Do you know how to burn garbage...

    Things that you regret not continuing to practice?

    I've read about child prodigies and people who are extremely successful at very young age. It always blown my mind what these high-achievers are capable of doing. Would it be good if everyone were born with a complete life-long roadmap , knowing exactly what to do , when to do with...

    Things that you regret not continuing to practice?

    "สวัสดี" or in English "sawasdee" was issued by field marshall Pibulsongkram in 1943 as a greeting term and also as a part of civilized national identities . :smile:

    Things that you regret not continuing to practice?

    Today, I get really tired after endless hours of preparation for Electromagnetism final so I start tracing on my past internet activities. And I've came across my post from 2012. Suddenly a sense of nostalgia hits me hard. Many old memories started playing back and forth in my head...

    Courses How much understanding is enough to truly master a course?

    To be great in something we have to invest a great deal of time. And 300 can be reduced by using the effective resources and study techniques. I think there are much more variables to determine the learning outcomes than the number of hours.
