CAPTIONS WILL BE ADDED LATER THIS WEEKEND.
- This week’s Book of the Week.
- Dan Fleisch is a great teacher.
- Dan Fleisch’s brilliant book on Maxwell’s equation. If it wasn’t for this book, I would have never met the Mystery Man.
- Tensors
- Tensors used in engineering
- partial derivative tensors
- Another way to represent vectors: As Column Vectors are a level 1 Tensor
- A 3D column Vector.
- Our wide ranging discussion covered about 4 major topics in Physics. The overriding theme was inertia.
- Oh snap, you found it! go to this website and look at what I added tonight (Feb 3rd): https://vimeo.com/154128539
- Aristotle introduced the idea of a “Prime Mover”
- Descartes had a big influence on Newton in his thoughts about inertia and momentum
- The following dozen shots are of inertia.
- “Dad, what’s inertia?” “Sorry, too trivial. Go and ask your mother!”
- Newton’s “lil p”
- Our first real suitcase! Suitcases are symbols that contain other symbols. Momentum contains mass and velocity, but wait . . . velocity is a small hand bag containing ∆x and t.
- Conservation Laws are the foundation of Physics Mechanics.
- The first Conservation Law was the Conservation of Mass.
- Antoine . . . Antoine . . . wake up Antoine!
- Mary Ann and Lavoisier
- Mary Ann’s drawings of some of their equipment they used to prove Conservation of Mass.
- We use Conservation of Mass to balance chemical equations
- . . .
- makes sense because in a typical chemical reaction the number of atoms in the reactants are the same as the number of atoms in the products.
- Oops . . . Lavoisier didn’t know about energy.
- Turns, mass is not always conserved. But energy is!
- This is one of the top 5 equations in Physics. E is energy, h is Plank’s Constant (6.626 × 10^-34 m^2 kg / s) and nu is the frequency of the wave.
- this shows pilot waves which indicate the higher level of energy (therefore higher relativistic mass) of the electron as it moves to the outer energy levels.
