    Can I Pursue a PhD in Theoretical Physics with a Master's in Applied Physics?

    I have a very simple and straightforward question. This has been troubling me for quiet a long time now. Can i go for a phd in theoretical physics with a masters in applied physics ? I basically mean to say that: Will applied physics degree create any kind of hindrance for phd in...

    Geophysics to Physics: Making the Transition

    I am an undergrad with geophysics major. Well...my course does contain some substantial amount of physics, but it does lack the thrills of quantum mechanics and particle physics(and probably something more). Frankly, i am highly fascinated by the subjects like QM, particle physics. I...

    Uncertainty Principle: How Does Position Depend on Photon Wavelength?

    I have a quite simple doubt. One of the practical applications of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is given by Heisenberg's microscope. In this thought expt. Heisenberg imagines of a hypothetical microscope in which an observer attempts to measure the position and momentum of an electron...

    Sol'n of Schrodinger's Eq: A e^{kx-wt} & A Sin(kx-wt)

    The general solution of Schrodinger's equation is givrn by -------- \Psi= A e^{kx-wt}. And this satisfies the equation . But the general solution of 3-D sinosidal wave is given by Psi= A Sin(kx-wt) And this also satisfies the schrodinger's equation. Schrodinger is credited to find the...

    Magnetic Field Force: Attraction & Repulsion

    Well ! What I think is Magnetic field moves at a speed of light.So, in order to turn off before causing a force,you must move your hand at a faster speed than light. But acc. to Einstein's theory of relativity ,it is not possible
