Collisions in Multiple Dimensions: Introduction01:05

Collisions in Multiple Dimensions: Introduction

6.1K
It is far more common for collisions to occur in two dimensions; that is, the initial velocity vectors are neither parallel nor antiparallel to each other. Let's see what complications arise from this. The first idea is that momentum is a vector. Like all vectors, it can be expressed as a sum of perpendicular components (usually, though not always, an x-component and a y-component, and a z-component if necessary). Thus, when the statement of conservation of momentum is written for a...

Collisions in Multiple Dimensions: Problem Solving

4.9K
In multiple dimensions, the conservation of momentum applies in each direction independently. Hence, to solve collisions in multiple dimensions, we should write down the momentum conservation in each direction separately. To help understand collisions in multiple dimensions, consider an example.
A small car of mass 1,200 kg traveling east at 60 km/h collides at an intersection with a truck of mass 3,000 kg traveling due north at 40 km/h. The two vehicles are locked together. What is the...

Local Attraction01:22

Local Attraction

233
Local attraction refers to disturbances in compass readings caused by magnetic influences from nearby objects such as metal fences, buried pipes, vehicles, buildings, power lines, or natural iron ore deposits. Small items like wristwatches, steel tools, or belt buckles can also interfere with the compass by creating local magnetic fields that distort the Earth's natural magnetic field. These distortions lead to inaccurate readings, posing navigation and land surveying challenges.Local...

Boundary Conditions: Lossless Lines01:21

Boundary Conditions: Lossless Lines

233
Consider a single-phase, two-wire, lossless transmission line terminated by an impedance at the receiving end and a source with Thevenin voltage and impedance at the sending end. The line, with length, has a surge impedance and wave velocity determined by the line's inductance and capacitance.
At the receiving end, the boundary condition states that the voltage equals the product of the receiving-end impedance and current. This relationship is expressed as a function of the incident and...

Non-inertial Frames of Reference01:27

Non-inertial Frames of Reference

6.7K
A reference frame accelerating or decelerating relative to an inertial frame is a non-inertial frame. To help understand this, consider what taking off in an airplane, turning a corner in a car, riding a merry-go-round, and the circular motion of a tropical cyclone all have in common. All these systems are accelerating, decelerating, or rotating relative to the Earth; hence, they all are non-inertial frames. All these systems exhibit inertial forces, which merely seem to arise from motion,...

Parallel-axis Theorem01:06

Parallel-axis Theorem

7.6K
The parallel-axis theorem provides a convenient and quick method of finding the moment of inertia of an object about an axis parallel to the axis passing through its center of mass. Consider a thin rod as an example. There is a striking similarity between the process of finding the moment of inertia of a thin rod about an axis through its middle, where the center of mass lies, and about an axis through its end using the conventional method. In the conventional method, the concept of linear mass...

Area of Science:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Foundations of physics
  • Local realism

Background:

  • The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) argument questioned the completeness of quantum theory.
  • Local realism, the idea that physical properties are local and definite, is often associated with local hidden variables.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To debunk the myth that local realism is equivalent to local hidden variables.
  • To reinterpret the EPR argument in light of modern understanding.
  • To explore the implications of a local-realistic universe for quantum theory's completeness.

Main Methods:

  • A thought experiment in an imaginary, yet local and realistic, world.
  • Analysis of Bell inequalities violations.
  • Reinterpretation of the EPR argument.

Main Results:

  • The imaginary world violates Bell inequalities more than quantum theory.
  • Local realism can be separated from local hidden variables.
  • The EPR argument's challenge to quantum theory's completeness is valid under local realism.

Conclusions:

  • Local realism is not synonymous with local hidden variables.
  • The completeness of quantum theory remains a valid question for those who believe in a local-realistic universe.
  • The EPR paradox highlights fundamental questions about reality and quantum mechanics.
