    How Does Water Flow Rate Change Over Time in a Draining Cylinder?

    Homework Statement Ok, so the height of the cylinder is 5.5 meters. The radius is 1 meters. There is a hole, .5 meters from the bottom(5 meters from the top), its radius is .02 meters. The question is how fast does water flow out, relative to time(this because the height of the water keeps...

    Quantum Best textbook for learning quantum mechanics?

    I am looking for a textbook for learning quantum mechanics. So, i have never had a course in quantum mechanics(currently in a class called modern physics where they introduce us to modern physics topics, but no qm classes) So, I was looking for book for self learning. I might take graduate...

    Do i need differential equations?

    A friend recently gave me a book on quantum mechanics. It's called Introduction to quantum mechanics. It's by David j griffiths. I am currently taking multivariable calc.I am taking linear algebra next semester. I want study this book, but I am wondering what mathi I need. My friend told me I...

    What prerequisites should i study?

    Hi, currently I am an undergrad. I really want to take an graduate course in Quantum Mechanics, but I am not sure if the physics I have already taken is sufficient enough. So, now I am wondering what courses I should take before taking the Quantum Mechanics course. I have listed the necessary...

    Intro Physics University physics with modern physics

    Ok, currently I am studying a book called University physics with modern physics. I am only studying classical mechanics at the time. My question is, the modern portion part of it, is it about the same material taught in introductory modern physics class(state university) or do i have to get a...

    Is full month break enough time to learn?

    ok, is 15 days of 3+hours a day, and then 1 month of totally hardcore studying(at least 10+hrs a day, doing this during the break) enough to qualify for the physics olympiad semifinals, IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE? do you think it could be done, if right now i don't know physics, but i do know cal 1...
