    I'm a Portuguese physics student willing to know people like me

    Hi Tosh5457, I sent you a PM so we don't go offtopic here. I am studying at IST, Lisbon (I think it's written on my profile).. Lisab, I bet you are a marine biologist/physicist. Gastronomically speaking my favorite fish is cod, but the ones that I like the most and whish they were in the...

    I'm a Portuguese physics student willing to know people like me

    oh sorry about it, I didn't knew it was impolite to bump in my own thread. I've been using the forum for about one year to help me in my study. Now that I am on vacation and have some free time, I would like to do a sort of cultural scientific exchange. Anyway, the invitation is still up to...

    I'm a Portuguese physics student willing to know people like me

    Hi everyone. I am using some of my summer free time to learn about new subjects in Edx, Coursera, watching TED talks, reading some interesting books to refresh my mind and trying to have some fun too. I would like to meet people like me that like that are curious and like to learn. I'm thinking...

    Can the fullness of a cylinder of water be determined by its frequency

    if we made a simplification like just assmuning the vibration of the air, could qe solve it?

    Can the fullness of a cylinder of water be determined by its frequency

    Homework Statement We have high cilinder with height h a filled with water up to the height L<h and air in the rest. We hit the cylinder and listen to the frequency of its sound. How can we determine L in function of h, the frequency of the noise, the speed of sound, ... Homework...

    Need a suggestion for an assignment on fiber optics.

    I am finishing a course on Eletromagnetism and Optics. I am currently a physics student in the second year of university. I passed the final exam and now I'm supposed to do a work on fiber optics. Do you know any interesting problem that i could adress? It can be a hard one, I am supposed to...

    Calculate integral through a change of variables

    yeah right, did a mistake on the limits of integration of the v variable. I calculated the limiting points of the triangle in the uv plane and did a mistake in one point. Limits of v became v=u and v=1. This way was impossible. Thanks but I think you did a mistake on the Jacobian. It is 1/2 not 2.

    Calculate integral through a change of variables

    Homework Statement Let D=\{ (x,y)\in\mathbb{R}^2:x+y< 1;0< y< x\} calculate \int_{D} e^{-(x+y)^4}(x^2-y^2) through an appropriate change of variables Homework Equations \int_{D} f *dxdy=\int_{D} f*Jacobian*dudv The Attempt at a Solution I've tried x+y=u and x-y=v...

    What are test hooks used for in an electric tool kit?

    I just bought a eletric tool kit and this thing came with it: I think they are called test hooks but i just can't figure out what are they for.. I can't find nothing that connects to the top hole of that thing.

    Looking for ballistics book. The physics of rockets, missiles, guns,

    I've just finished a course on Mechanics on my university and wish to apply that knowledge to learn more about rockets, missiles, firearms.. projectiles in general. Do you know any good book about the subject. How do missiles work? Why was the first ballistic missile ever invented only in WW2...
