    Diamagnetic Water
AI Thread Summary
Water's diamagnetism is inherent to its molecular structure and cannot be altered without changing the substance itself. Adding powdered bismuth to water does not enhance its diamagnetic properties, as the fundamental characteristics of water remain unchanged. While bismuth is a diamagnetic material, its addition to water does not guarantee that plants will absorb it effectively. The discussion emphasizes that any modifications to water's properties are limited by its atomic structure. Ultimately, enhancing water's diamagnetism is not feasible through external additives.

Is it possible to make water more diamagnetic? If so, how? It would also help if the changes could be transferred to plants to affect the diamagnetic properties of the plant.

You can't make water more dimagnetic as dimagnetism is a property of the water molecules atomic structure which cannot be changed otherwise you change the nature of the substance.

Could i add powdered bismuth to the water and will the plant take up the bismuth? Or will nothing happen?
 

Thread 'How to picture the vector potential?'

Susskind (in The Theoretical Minimum, volume 1, pages 203-205) writes the Lagrangian for the magnetic field as ##L=\frac m 2(\dot x^2+\dot y^2 + \dot z^2)+ \frac e c (\dot x A_x +\dot y A_y +\dot z A_z)## and then calculates ##\dot p_x =ma_x + \frac e c \frac d {dt} A_x=ma_x + \frac e c(\frac {\partial A_x} {\partial x}\dot x + \frac {\partial A_x} {\partial y}\dot y + \frac {\partial A_x} {\partial z}\dot z)##. I have problems with the last step. I might have written ##\frac {dA_x} {dt}...

Thread 'Griffith, Electrodynamics, 4th Edition, Example 4.8. (Second part)'

I am reading the Griffith, Electrodynamics book, 4th edition, Example 4.8. I want to understand some issues more correctly. It's a little bit difficult to understand now. > Example 4.8. Suppose the entire region below the plane ##z=0## in Fig. 4.28 is filled with uniform linear dielectric material of susceptibility ##\chi_e##. Calculate the force on a point charge ##q## situated a distance ##d## above the origin. In the page 196, in the first paragraph, the author argues as follows ...
