8 Linear Momentum and Collisions
... 58 m/s, that the initial horizontal component of the velocity before impact is negligible, and that the ball remained in contact with the racquet for 5.0 ms (milliseconds)? Strategy This problem involves only one dimension because the ball starts from having no horizontal velocity component before i ...

Leaking Chaotic Systems
... is then dN = dt∆Avnf (v, t)d3 v, where n is the normal vector of the surface at the leak I. The total number is then obtained by carrying out an integration over all velocities. Thus, the time derivative of the number N (t) of particles inside the container is Z dN (t) = −∆A vnf (v, t)d3 v, ...

Momentum packet
... The above equation is one statement of the law of momentum conservation. In a collision, the momentum change of object 1 is equal and opposite to the momentum change of object 2. That is, the momentum lost by object 1 is equal to the momentum gained by object 2. In a collision between two objects, o ...

Interacting Cold Rydberg Atoms: a Toy Many-Body
... Two pioneering experiments were performed simultaneously in 1998, which started the field of the study of strongly interacting cold atomic samples. In these two experiments, one performed in laboratoire Aimé Cotton (Orsay, France) [6] and the other at the university of Virginia (USA) [7], the exper ...

Population Monte Carlo algorithms
... For some problems, the algorithm without STEP 3 is sufficient. Hereafter, we call the algorithm without STEP 3 as “simple” population Monte Carlo. Note that without STEP 3, there is no interaction between walkers. Then, parallel evolution of the walkers can be replaced by sequential runs each of which ...

How to teach friction: Experiments and models
... In standard physics courses friction is usually presented as a marginal topic in a cursory, abstract, and schematic manner. The typical presentation focuses on the simplicity of the classic laws of static and kinetic friction between solids, rolling friction, and friction in fluids and obscures the ...

Violation of Leggett-Garg inequalities in quantum measurements
... simply describes the requirement that the probability Pψ (−1, +1) for the measurement outcomes s2 = −1 and s3 = +1 should be positive. Interestingly, fundamental quantum mechanics seems to suggest that these joint probabilities - if they can be defined at all - may be negative. The violation of LGIs ...
