As I understand it, a relativistic reversal can occur in a Lorentz boost. A particle's forward angular momentum can become backward angular momentum, if the observer accelerates sufficiently. But the particle and its angular momentum are unchanged. The only change is in the observer’s frame...

Hello, I'm in sort of a strange predicament. I need to figure out how to install a bunch of software that we don't have install programs for. They did at one time, but I think they've been lost by the employee before me or even before that. Luckily though, I do have servers with the program...

The equation for momentum (potential energy) is PE=M*V. The equation for kinetic energy is KE=(1/2)*(M*V^2). You will notice that PE is the derivative of KE. and then you might add that M, simply Mass, is the derivative of PE. However, because M is simply a scalar quantity, and the other...

E=mc^2 states that when you speed up matter to the speed of light, it becomes pure energy, of mc^2 joules. Now, if that is true, can you reverse the equation? Wouldn't energy speed up to the negative speed of light(-c^2), turn into matter? Or is that the wrong balance?

So all these college classes are really a growing experience for my teenage boys (home schooled). Last night my older son kept us up late persevering on a Calculus problem. Now, I remember a lot about sequences and series from my own days in Calculus and from teaching Calc 1, 2, and 3 at the Air...

Why don't we consider the current produced by voltage source in plotting reverse bias characteristics?if this current is considered then the saturation current will depend on the the external voltage.

Electrochemical hydrogen compressors (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_hydrogen_compressor) basically convert an electrical potential difference into a pressure difference. Would it be possible to run one of these in reverse, i.e. using a pressure difference to create a voltage? If...

Hi What happens when a centrifugal pump rotate inversely? Does it add Head to fluid?

Hello everyone, so I'm currently trying to find out how much power will be lost during reverse recovery of a MOSFET's diode. I'm using this paper for reference, https://www.fairchildsemi.com/application-notes/AN/AN-6005.pdf the equation they end up with is P= Qrr*Vin*Freq_sw the problem is...

Hi all, I think I know the answer to this question but I'm having trouble explaining why it is so. If I have a circuit with a fixed resistor connected in parallel with a reverse biased diode, I believe the voltage drop across each will be the same. Is this correct? If so can someone explain the...

If my understanding is correct, with respect to dry-type building power transformers, due to the virtues of the transformer as a dumb machine it really doesn't care which side of itself is the primary versus the secondary. In other words a 480D-208Y tranformer can be correctly connected such...

Hi, I'm currently studding a module on PLC and have a question on "what will happen if you do this ...". As I don't have a problem with explaining operation of each rungs of the ladder diagram I need some help on explaining the function of the reverse relay and travel limit switches. Can anyone...

Hey all, It's been quite a while since I've been on here, I'm an IT Technician and recently lost a student to brain cancer at the age of 11 so i thought I'd brainstorm until i worked out a possible and feasible way to beat cancer, this might be sci-fi or false information as I'm not entirely...

This is a really silly question though... Newton said that the apple fell on the ground due to gravity but can we say that the Earth rose upwards to touch the apple. Is it possible to prove this by any physics law? Thnx for any reply.

Can someone explain why after a certain voltage, current flows. We were taught that in pn junction when a reverse voltage is applied the depletion region grows wider. Using this no matter what the voltage current should not increase. So why does a current flow when a reverse current is applied.

Homework Statement Homework Equations [/B] When a diode is reverse biased positive donor ions are left in the N semiconductor and negative acceptor ions in the P type. And since the N is conected to + and its donnor ions has a large +charge, why no electrons from P cannot cross the junction and...

Hello everyone, I'm attempting to determine the impulse that can be generated by expelling compressed air from a pressure vessel stored aboard a moving craft through nozzles in the nose of the craft. The vessel has a forward momentum of roughly 2,000,000 Ns. EDIT: For semantics sake, consider...

Hello all, The root problem is that I can't put all my analogue inputs onto one input card (each card has 4 inputs) on the project I'm working on. We have four sensors, they should all output 4-20mA. Two are source type outputs, supply voltage goes in, sensor current comes out, current is...

Dear PF Forum. I saw once that sinh-1(x) is arcsinh(x). The reverse of sinh Why not sinh-1(x) is 1/sinh(x)? While x-1 = 1/x Is it just a 'convention' between mathematician? Thanks.

Hi An exercise asks to show $ \int_{a}^{b}f(z) \,dz = -\int_{b}^{a}f(z) \,dz $ I can remember this for real functions, something like $ G(x) = \int_{a}^{b}f(x) \,dx = G(b) - G(a), \therefore \int_{b}^{a}f(x) \,dx = G(a) - G(b) = -\int_{a}^{b}f(x) \,dx $ I have seen 2 approaches, either...

Thought I knew this, but am confused by the following example: Show $ |z^3 - 5iz + 4| \ge 8 $ The example goes on: $ |z^3 - 5iz + 4| \ge ||z^3 - 5iz| - |4|| $, using the reverse triangle inequality It's probably right, but I don't get why the +4 can just be made into a -4 ?

If I know the mean and standard deviation, but I don't have an original data set, is it possible to reverse calculate a data set that has this known mean and std dev? Is there an excel function I could use to do this easily? I know there could be multiple correct datasets and that's fine, I'm...

Suppose I have something like \left( \nabla_\mu \nabla_\beta - \nabla_\beta \nabla_\mu \right) V^\mu = R_{\nu \beta} V^\nu Can since all the terms involving ##\mu## on the left and ##\nu## on the right are contractions, can I simply do: \left( \nabla^\mu \nabla_\beta - \nabla_\beta \nabla^\mu...

I want to power a led off mains, here's my thinking on it: resistor-->led-->1n4009 to protect against reverse breakdown voltage, is there anything I'm missing and will it be reliable?

I know they have a diode that gets reversed to see forward V reverse power but how does that diode just respond to the one direction of energy? I have a bird wattmeter and it uses two slugs, one pointed in the other out to get simultaneous forward and reverse power and VSWR and such but why does...

Determine the reverse saturation current for the diode below, given that VS = 5V, R = 360Ω produces a diode current of 10mA. Use h = 1.3 and VT = kT/q = 25mV. I believe this is the formula needed. Id = Is(e^(VD/(h*25mV))-1) The problem I had was I've done several questions similar to this but...

Is this a true phenomenon?? I just read 1 article, but i don't believe it Could DNA really be synthesized using The amino acid sequence?

Hello, When the diode is in forward bias phase and suddenly we apply a reverse bias voltage, the diode takes time to be fully blocked because of the excess of minority charges that are stored in P and N region. Thus a reverse current appears in the diode for a short time before it is blocked...
