Property Definition and 608 Threads

There has been this question that has been bothering me for quite sometime. It is an assignment question I failed to answer... Can anyone explain to me in terms of light and the laws of reflection the reason why Mirrors reverse an image left-to-right?

Wow, this forum's changed a lot since the last time I logged-on... Anyway, since I may not be able to get back on the Forums again, I wanted to make sure that I explained something which I only sort of glossed over in previous threads, and which probably would have been useful in those...

I ask this becuase I see time as the free flow of cause and effect within our own consciouness. And a descriptor for the process of change in the world around us. What if all events suddenly ceased to happen - the universe completely static. Does time still flow for the physicist...

In the physics of elementary particles, as far as I know, there can be three definitions of density. 1. density is the ratio of mass per unit length. 2. density is the ratio of mass per unit area. 3. density is the ratio of mass per unit volume. Quarks and leptons are almost point...

"Time's arrow, or what universal property is asymmetric, anyway?" A lot has been made of time's arrow not appearing in the equations of Newton, statistical mechanics, relativity and quantum mechanics - none preferring that past precedes the future or vice versa. Some very specific particle...

We are currently busy in calculus in proving limits of series ans sequences exist and so on. We use epsilon arguments to prove these things. Somewhere in the proof, the Archimedian Property is used i.e. for every real number x there exists a natural number k such that k > x. I don't understand...

I keep asking myself: Why do I work for a living? http://www.reviewjournal.com/lvrj_home/2003/Sep-29-Mon-2003/news/22251899.html

I understand the Tesseract, but What would be the fifth dimensional property? Does it have to do with tunneling properties of particles? And how would time act in the fourth dimension? I do understand a little about physics, but in consideration that I know very little, please IN LAMENS TERMS!
