    What is the Bernoulli Equation?

    k in this case is 1.4 (for air) Ma is the mach number.

    What is the Bernoulli Equation?

    Homework Statement I recently was given an interesting problem I thought I'd share with the community here. It's a fun exercise in mathematics. Given the equation: Po/P = [1+((k-1)/2)*Ma^2]^(k/(k-1)) From this stagnation ratio, derive the Bernoulli Equation: Po = P + 1/2 * rho * V^2...

    Need help with Electric Potential problem.

    I was going over that mit open courseware stuff and I ran into a problem I'm having trouble with... http://www.phy.mtu.edu/~gagin/2200/textfiles/ph2200-ex2-f05.pdf #23 The equation I have for it is: vi = sqrt(2/m * ((K*1.5nC*e/.005m) + (K*1.5nC*e/.005m))) But I'm getting to large a...

    A few fundamental questions I'm having trouble on

    It seems to me that more brain power is wasted on arguing about all this crap instead of trying to actually figure it out. Why all the argument? Thanks for the info though Masudr. Btw, I thought that einstine said that space time curved from matter/energy because of the geometry of higher...

    A few fundamental questions I'm having trouble on

    I think the "we can't answer these types of questions" are a load of crap... If something does not make sense, then you don't know how it works. Why is not for philosophers in my opinion. Why is a weakness in a physicists's understanding that philosophers speculate on. Why does an apple...

    A few fundamental questions I'm having trouble on

    Why is an electron so small and the proton so large? Why does + repel + and all those other combinations? Why exactly does an electric field form? What is + charge? What is - charge?I'm looking for very indepth stuff here.
