June 2006 - Physics

<p>I said the volume of the water was greater, but I never learned thermal physics.</p>

<p>for the Galileo question... the answer was that Galileo did not work w/ inertia... that was Newto... and the bird, it is above the actual position... and the for the candle in the box, it specified that there was no air in the box, so convection isnt possible</p>

<p>no the phase change is a different kind of phase change, going through seperate mediums, its in many books. how does the thin film diffract? it barely refracts since the film is so thin.</p>

<p>I said diffraction; I thought phase change had a meaning for optics. Not sure though.</p>

<p>no, galileo didnt discover that the universe was expanding, that was hundreds of years later. he did very important works with inertia..</p>

<p>It was the universes is expanding- he couldn't possibly know that; it is based on the modern concept of red shift.</p>

<p>what was exactly the Q? Galileo discovered all these Except the following?..I remember there was an except there...</p>

<p>anyone know about the gravitational potential of jupiter</p>

<p>Far = low potential
velo fast near</p>

<p>I think it was something like that.</p>

<p>It is diffraction? Yeah! I had phase shift and changed it.</p>

<p>so for the keplers/jupiter it was just I?</p>

<p>waves go through a phase change of pi when they are reflected. Either that or pi/2. Hmm. Diffraction's the answer. It still gets refracted, the two different angled rays interfer with each other.</p>

<p>do you guys remember getting 4 a's in a row?</p>

<p>Yea, so for the jupiter one, it was I only?</p>

<p>there was a Q on earth and moon...was the answer 3600/1?</p>

<p>also do you guys remember a strange amount of bcbc and ccc ccc patterns?</p>

<p>If I skipped 3, how many can I get wrong and get a 750?</p>

<p>which ones?</p>

<p>The last one and two others. Any ideas on how many?</p>

<p>probably like 15 wrong, which 2 others? (for the sake of discussion)</p>
