Electron density as a function of time

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding a time-dependent continuity equation for electron densities in the atmosphere. The user is struggling to formulate the equation and seeks guidance on relevant resources or equations to start with. They have already calculated electron density and magnetic forces but need clarity on the equation's structure. The conversation emphasizes the importance of defining the problem and stating assumptions to progress. Assistance is requested to better understand the formulation of the continuity equation.

Homework Statement


Hi!
I really need help with finding time- dependent continuity equation for electron densities in the atmosphere. I've tried to solve it without any success. My question is if someone can give me a good link/link or equations that I can start with.

Homework Equations


See above. I already have the density of the electrons and I can calculate the magnetic force etc. But I need to see how the equation for this problem looks like. I assume that it should be something like
n_e(t)=n_e0*...
Thanks!

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
