Source Definition and 1000 Threads

Hello, There is an omni-directional and coherent light source rotating at the frequency of EM waves. If you think of the wave model, there will be nothing unexpected that you can imagine the space is rotating around the source. However, if it is quantized I can't tell what happens since photons...

When a quite big star consumes its fuel, it explodes with supernovae. So, if it consumes almost all of its fuel up to the iron, then how can the new stars born after explosion. I mean, Hydrogens already turned into Helium and Helium into Carbon and so on. Does star consume all the fuel it has or...

Hi.i know that a ideal current source has infinite resistance and it supply's constant current to aload connected across it. The current source doesn't have the infinite resistance in series to it but in pparalle. All is well until I think of this Norton's Therom. When we transform a voltage...

The energy of photon is $$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$$ Now if we have an isotropic point light source of power P, Number of photons $$N=\frac{P}{E} = \frac{P \lambda}{hc}$$ Hence one can find the change in momentum and hence the force exerted by a beam or light sources. But let's say we keep an...
