Phase Definition and 1000 Threads

I'm asking if space space is subject to change, if not, why not, and if so, then would it be subject to a subsequent phase space that describes that? Let us make a phase space for a deterministic time evolved dynamic system of three spatial dimensions. Since the actions of the system and the...

With sound you can create out of phase signals and they cancel out, this is not possible with light as it does not interact like sound does. If it was possible to create two light sources in that were exactly 180 degrees out of phase with each other and aim them at a common point (eg an...

Homework Statement 2. Homework Equations 3. The Attempt at a Solution [/B] For part (c), should the phasor diagram just have everything on a straight line, save for the Rt and Vrt? Honestly not sure how to attempt part (d) as we never really covered phase relationships in lectures, just...

If the single phase flows on the inclined surface and this phase (let's say water) is wetting the surface then closest layer to the surface will be bounded and will not move. And velocity of flow will be in inverse proportion with viscosity of the fluid. If now the second phase is introduced...

Homework Statement http://imgur.com/a/FDfAp What is the phase constant? Homework Equations x(t) = A*cos(ωt+Φ) The Attempt at a Solution If I'm not mistaken at t = 0 the graph starts at half the amplitude or 5. Also the amplitude of this graph is 10, and at t = 0 angular velocity is also 0. 5...

Hi, So I am aiming to derive the continuity equation using the fact that phase space points are not created/destroyed. So I am going to use the Leibiniz rule for integration extended to 3-d: ## d/dt \int\limits_{v(t)} F dv = \int\limits_{v(t)} \frac{\partial F}{\partial t} dV +...

I am trying to create a phase sweeper at 31.4KHz(and constant 5V) for a small antenna array that consists 2 antennas. If I can create 2 signals with a frequency difference < 1Hz it's okay too(It will be nearly same) as long as I can control that difference because I need to change phase at a...

It is common to calculate Berry phases for quantum systems in, for example, a magnetic field. In this case we compute the Berry phase ##\gamma## using $$\gamma[C] = i\oint_C \! \langle n,t| \left( \vec{\nabla}_R |n,t\rangle \right)\,\cdot{d\vec{R}} \,$$ where ##R## parametrizes the cyclic...

For a time-dependent Hamiltonian, the Schrodinger equation is given by $$i\hbar\frac{\partial}{\partial t}|\alpha;t\rangle=H(t)|\alpha;t\rangle,$$ where the physical time-dependent state ##|\alpha;t\rangle## is given by $$|\alpha;t\rangle =...

There's something that I'd like to know and haven't been able to find in any book: 1.- Is the number of second order phase transition university classes known? 2.- Do we know quantitatively know the behavior of all such second order phase transition university classes? 3.- Do we know the...

I have a doubt regarding gibbs phase rule in thermodynamics.. It says the number of independent intensive properties required to specify the state of a system is F=C-P+2 where C is number of components and P is the number of phase.. So for a water and water vapour system, C=1, P=2 . So F=1. If...

Gibbs phase rule says f = r-M+2 with f: thermodynamic degrees of freedom; r: number of components; M: number of phases I wonder whether the defintion of "phase" is restricted or almost arbitrary. For example, consider a system of H2O, O2 and H2 in a closed vessel. Let there be the contstraint...

Assuming for now a simple photon particle model for light, where you have a stream of photons traveling with a certain frequency. Picturing this in my head on a number line, with just 3 photons at a time, and let's just say the wavelength is 1 and speed is 1, and at time t=0 we have a photon at...

I would like to prove that ##\displaystyle{\int dx'\ \frac{1}{\sqrt{AB}}\exp\bigg[i\frac{(x''-x')^{2}}{A}\bigg]\exp\bigg[i\frac{(x'-x)^{2}}{B}\bigg]=\frac{1}{\sqrt{A+B}}\exp\bigg[i\frac{(x''-x)^{2}}{A+B}\bigg]}## Is there an easy way to do this integration that does not involve squaring the...

Hi, I have a question that has been bugging me recently. It's about the berry phase and something that I find contradictory. One can see that it is possible to get rid of 2π x (integer) part of the Berry phase by means of a gauge transformation. This in general applies to phases (gauge...

1. The problem FIGURE 4(a) shows the circuit of an oscillator and FIGURE 4(b) gives the gain and phase response of the op-amp used. When the circuit was simulated in PSpice using an ideal op-amp, the circuit oscillated at the designed frequency. However when the ideal opamp was replaced by the...

When solving the differential equations for an electromagnetic wave you get out that the electric and magnetic field oscillate in phase. But when considering a oscillating dipole, the electric and magnetic field at a point close to the dipole are a quater period out of phase. Can someone please...

Why won't water wave undergo a phase change of pi when it propagates to a fixed wall just like a pulse of string does.

Ice melting in a box has the water coming off it at a temp just above freezing until all the ice is gone. Are all phase change materials pretty much the same, with their immediate containment container exterior staying pretty much just above their phase change temp until all the PCM inside has...

Why do we take a particle's position ##x## and its velocity ##\dot{x}## as independent variables in a phase space when they are dependent in the sense that given the function ##x(t)##, we can get the function ##\dot{x}(t)##? I'm thinking they are independent variables but not independent...

A very neat video showing a phase transition in rotating balls in a cup. Serves as a good analogy to other phase transions.

Could you please explain the derivation of group velocity = dw/dk I read ut here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_velocity Is it approximation, if so under what circumstances

For example, the term angular frequency, it units is radian per second. For phase, it is also measured in radians or degrees, why is that? Why is the math the same when you use angles to describe oscillations?
