AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the conditions under which the Bohr atom can be considered to behave classically. A participant seeks clarification on the Bohr correspondence principle, indicating that the explanation in their reading material was insufficient. Another participant emphasizes the need for specific quotes from the text to better address the confusion. The conversation highlights the importance of clear communication and context when discussing complex scientific principles. Understanding these conditions is crucial for grasping the transition from quantum to classical physics.

Hi,
Well, what have you found so far ?
By the way, is this homework ?

No, it's not a homework. I was just reading Bohr correspondence principle. There is little explanation in that book but I did not understand that's why I asked here just to make my concept clear.

Then you should quote that "little explanation". Otherwise, we have no clue on what you read and what exactly is the part that you did not understand.

Zz.

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'
I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...
I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
