  • Addendum to Coriolis Force; Definition of Centripetal Force.

    We need to understand first that Force can be categorized into two types. One is called tangential or collinear force. This component of the force is always along the direction of motion and changes speed of an object. It can change direction once the velocity of the object has become zero. Its NOT centripetal force.…

  • Uncertainty Principle Again.

    2. The object can be a large object, eg say something whose picture you are taking. But as explained above its not the energy of the object (or momentum) which is directly coming into the problem. That would be an added degree of concern if the object is moving with certain velocity, a reason why…

  • Do we have two theories for two different scales of reality?

    Quantum laws pervade everywhere. The diffraction of prism or windows, the little stars that sparkle on your window pane are all quantum mechanical effects brought into the fore of our sight. We gaze at it from our convenience, but they are produced at the minion and carried forth without prejudice to yet another scale, the…

    What is Theory of Relativity?

    I have read so many complicated description of whats theory of relativity that I tend to think such complicacy serves two purposes; Misleading: it takes us away from the real concepts. Complicated: It does not make the concepts easy at all to grasp. Ineffective: It ill-prepares even very good students — as their precious time is wasted and…
