... Law of conservation of momentum: when no external forces act on a system consisting of 2 objects, the total momentum of the system before the collision = the total momentum of the system after the collision. Example: A baseball player uses a pitching machine to help him improve his batting average. ...

Copenhagen Interpretation
... Einstein became uneasy about such implications and, in later years, organized a rearguard action against quantum mechanics. His question, “Do you really think the moon isn't there if you aren't looking at it?” highlights the depths of his distaste for the role of the consciousness. His strongest cou ...

On A Roll! Theoretical Background
... comes from the rotation of the body. Now this is especially interesting, since we'll see that the fraction of kinetic energy due to rotation depends on the geometry of the body. To begin, assume there are several objects at the top of a ramp, with the ramp making an angle with horizontal. The obje ...

Quantum mechanical description of identical particles

Calculations in statistical mechanics rely on probabilistic arguments, which are sensitive to whether or not the objects being studied are identical. As a result, identical particles exhibit markedly differ ...
