Hello. I'm brand new here. I am not a physicist or scientist. I'm insanely curious, though, and I think a lot. I'm somewhat of an amateur philosopher. I've been studying philosophy for the past 31 years. I'm also very interested in Physics and Cosmology. I'm particularly interested in how...

I am currently a first-year undergraduate student at the University of Sri Jayewardenepura in Sri Lanka. My majors are Physics, Chemistry, and Polymer Science & Technology. In our program, we study these three majors during the first two academic years. After that, we must select one major to...

I thought that I can get a function that is representing the values and compare it to the function of the sample bearing, is this right? or is there and easier approach?

I wanted to get some guidance on whether someone on here has decided to study a masters in physics while working as an engineer. I graduated last year july with a Mechanical Engineering Degree and currently work as a graduate engineer within an energy company. I found that throughout my...

Hey guys. So, exactly what it says: I am looking for different online options to take a Calculus-based Physics class with a lab component so I can get credit for it. It will have to be online since the colleges within a drivable distance from where I live don't seem to have any I can register...

TL;DR Summary: If Someone has a Bachelor's degree specialized in Nuclear Medicine OR Nuclear Technology, Can They Do Nuclear Engineering as their Masters? 🤔 There are several children who have done that in Sri Lanka. They now live in countries like Korea and Austria. Would it be difficult for...

My name is precious but I prefer to be called Smlyx 😊 for some unknown reason. I tend to have some difficulties in physics , so I do believe that this website will possibly help me to improve my understanding of physics

How did you find PF?: I'm using Instagram. My ID is soy_binac (Binur Abeysekara) Hi I'm doing a physics degree in University of Sri Jayawardena Pura, Sri Lanka. I want to know Can I do Nuclear engineering as my masters in future?

First of all, obviously, we need to get the velocity before entering the water from the energy conservation 1/2mv^2 = mgh -> v = sqrt(2*g*h). After entering the water, we still have a gravity force and also drag force. Since the velocity is low, I take a drag term as "-bv", where b is a constant...

So i was trying to find out what parsec actually is, but i just can't understand one thing, which is what is the object parallax is measured from? Like i know it's the star A being compared to background made of even further stars B, but because if the object (star A) were to be closer or...
