I am currently trying to create a linear induction motor for fun and am having some trouble getting it to start oscillating or move at all. I am using this video as a reference... I am using 3D printed PLA as the structure for the copper to wind around, 26 GA Craftware USA copper wire, 5/8"...

Now i had a question,but before that look at this. Now by the central dogma DNA is transcribed by RNA polymerase onto mRNA and this leads to translation which creates Protiens. But hold on...The polymerase itself is an enzyme ie ;a protein . So to make proteins...you need proteins aldredy...

Homework Statement Homework Equations I = nqVA J = E/ρ J = I/A The Attempt at a Solution The underlying assumption was that current was constant across all 3 bits of the conductor, and thus answer is b. The concept I can't grasp is this: Why is current constant? Shouldn't a smaller A mean...

I wonder if anyone has some fun or interesting stories about their high school or university physics teachers. In my case there are several, and some of these teachers had tremendous reputations. These were actual professors of mine, so I know this is not apocryphal. Of course I will never...

Hey folks, I recently made a little equation and I would like to know if there's any way to plot it on a 2D graph. Problem is, there's multiple variables. so if anyone here can help me out that would be appreciated. Here's my formulas: S2 = (S1-(S1/10))/2x x= T2/(S1/20) T2= T1-(S1/10) S1 is...

Inspired by this SMBC comic: I can read things some people can't read so I read them and then write them again only now those people can read it. Now's your turn.

Imagine a fish in a tank that is completely filled with water and closed on all sides. Can this fish swim? Since water is extermely difficult to compress, when the fish moves its fin to propel itself forward, the water can't move anywhere, so the fish should not be able to move right? Then I...

Homework Statement My homework question says: the uncertainty in length 1 is +/- 0.1 and in length 2 is +/- 0.1 : calculate the percentage uncertainty in V where V L1-L2 is 30 Homework Equations V= (1/(L1-L2))^0.5 where L is the length[/B] The Attempt at a Solution So what I did was...

Hello, I'm looking for any ideas that you geniuses may have! We have to design a device that will catch a (hardboiled) egg from 7 meters high. It can be made from any material/objects but must be under 5 cm tall (the sides can be as wide as wanted) and must be self-supporting. The device will...
