Why is it that the flux linkage does not change instantaneously ? is it some property of magnetic fields?

I haven't touched a physics textbook in a while and need help with something fairly simple. I am staring straight down on a rectangular prism that is tilted on one axis to a known angle, theta. I have a measurement of a vector length in this orientation. I would like to know how much that length...

I was performing XRD earlier, and I came across this odd occurrence in the powders that were being inspected - After it was performed, the crystalline powder I had been testing had gone off color into this yellowish appearance (Originally was white). Upon disturbance, the powder become white...

Hey guys, A quick question on a career change... Is it worth pursuing a career in scientific research later in life? The reason I ask this is that even though it's illegal I still believe ageism is a factor for us the older lot to not be favoured over the younger crowd. I have had direct...

It is reported that TiO2 thin surface amorphous layer left after acid-etching with hot HCl-H2SO4 solution slowly changes from the original flat surface to a layer rich in nano-scale features (granules attached to the surface) of 20 ~ 30 nm in size. You can see these nano-features in the picture...

Hello, This is a little long but I promise it won't take that long to read and I want to tell my whole story. I have posted on here before in the past, but those posts are now conflicting and totally irrelevant. I've gone through a rough patch in my life where I couldn't decide what I want to...

Hello, I just did a practice physics problem that asked if an object with constant acceleration can change direction twice. The answer was no. What if you had an object attached to a string spinning at constant velocity. Is the tangential acceleration constant?

Dear All, This is my first question to the forum. "Assume there is a + dc voltage across a inductor. So current will continue to increase. Now if the current through the inductor is forced to stop using some means ( eg. Current was flowing in inductor through a ON switch and then switch turns...

Apologies in advance. I am on page 1 of physics. My question is simple. Can I replace the word 'energy' with the word 'change' . Is energy simply 'change that has been quantified'. Take 2 cases. Case 1 -A boy bounces a ball and the ball changes shape and bounces through a window breaking...

Using a green laser instead of a red laser seems to change the way the ray changes during refraction. Why is that so?

Homework Statement Hi everyone. We were discussing conservation of angular momentum as a consequence of rotational invariance in class. There was one point where we needed to compute the change in a vector A when the coordinate frame is rotated by angle Δ(Φ). Homework Equations The teacher...

Recently I was searching the internet and books for the connection between conservation of angular momentum and conservation of rotational energy and found nothing. Let's say an ice skater rotates and draws the arms in - the rotation speeds up. The rotational energy must increase because the...

I know that in a para magnetic material the magnetization increase on cooling. What will be the same effect on a diamagnetic material,considering the fact that Curies law doesn't hold good on diamagnetic materials.

Good afternoon all, For those of you that teach physics, if an object has an initial velocity of - 5m/s and a final velocity of -20 m/s, do you consider the velocity to be increasing or decreasing in this case? I view this to be strictly defined mathematically, that is that the acceleration is...

I can't understand why a gas passing through a porous plug experiences change in its pressure and why does the cooling or heating process depends upon the initial temperature

Yes, this is kind of a weird question to make, but I haven't found anyone discussing it so I decided to ask it myself. The question: Is it possible to change the pitch of a voice up two tones (for example), in order to create a harmonizer that has no electronics involved? The idea and where it...

My question is, take Mars, say, and install a huge rocket engine on the ground pointing out the planet (obviously) and in the opposite direction of its velocity, so that if it is turned on, the planet is slowed. The rocket starts to work and Mars is slowed. If the loss of velocity goes little by...
