There are no video titled "nikola tesla hoax fraud on youtube" but if you search "einstein hoax fraud" ENDLESS videos appear, isn't that fishy?

Physics undergrad here.
How do grad schools view applying undergrads that have taken graduate level courses, assuming you did well in them?
Does is benefit? Could it hurt you?

>>
>>8961380
Yes it helps quite a bit. Any number of grad class is better than no grad class.
Moreover, if you've taken quite a lot of graduate level classes to complete the equivalent of a Master degree, then it is especially impressive.

I'm a healthy 21 y/o.
I had a tooth infection (from an ingrown tooth) that multiple dentists kept hesitating working on because it would imply that I need braces directly after and I told them I couldn't afford it. They just monitored it every visit for 3 years. Not doing anything about it even though my insurance covered them removing the baby tooth. Still no one took it out.
About a month ago, bacteria (most likely from tooth infection) gets in my blood. It went untreated until I started to faint, hallucinate, vomit, intense migraines, etc and went to the ER. I was in the hospital for two weeks being treated for Septic Shock.
Back to normal about two weeks later. All is well until similar symptoms happen again at work. I go back to hospital thinking the antibiotics didn't fully treat the bacteria in my blood and whoops I guess I have CDiff that doctors say I likely contacted at the hospital when I went there for sepsis.
Shout out to cleaning staff for letting me contact someone else's shit, especially a cdiff patients shit.
I don't wanna take medicine anymore and I really am tired of going back to the hospital. I told them how I felt and they said it's just anxiety and prescribed me lexapro.
Can I kill the bad bacteria myself and get probiotics into my system?
I genuinely don't trust the healthcare system anymore. I don't know what to do. Die?

I've written this in another thread.
I had a broken infected tooth and on zero carb it would stop hurting.
There was a definite pattern to it.
If I ate carbs it would hurt for hours, aspirin and acetaminophen didn't work.
Cutting all sugars I would go on without pain.
Eating sweets would throw me again in a spiral of agony.
After a few months it stopped working and the tooth had to be pulled.
The doctor scraped off a bit of infected bone as well.
You should definitely give a chance to this diet.
You eat rare cheap fatty cuts and clarified butter if you wish for more fats.

Even with grueling schedules, little food and sleep.
Last time I got it was when I reintroduced carbs.
Carbs are poison.

Hi /sci/, I'm not /sci/ but I just realized that I find radio waves fascinating and that I know nothing about how they work. I started reading "basics of radio waves" on dummies dot com and I'm not sure I understand some stuff and I have some questions.
>Transmitters cause electrons to move so that they, in turn, create the radio waves.
So is there some kind of "pattern" that the electrons form that retains itself in the form of a wave? Ho do they not get "messed up" as they travel, especially when there are different radio stations broadcasting different things? Also, can a station tell how many people are listening, and if so how?
>The fields of the radio wave aren’t just one strength all the time; they oscillate (vary between a positive and a negative value) the way that a vibrating string moves above and below its stationary position.
What does that mean, that they vary between positive and negative "values"? My guess is that since it's a wave, it goes up and down, and the down is like an inverse of when it's up, basically?
Also, when it talks about electrons moving in sync, does that mean just random electrons that exist in everything? Can radio waves travel through solid objects and liquids? How can a radiowave's wavelength remain constant if it's traveling through different mediums with presumably different amounts of electrons? Can radio waves travel through vacuums at all?

If there is a amateur radio society in your country, hit their website for basic data on using moving electrons for fun. Other than that, an intro to Physics text should cover the basics in a few chapters.

Hey anon
Radio waves are photons at a different frequency - it's the same stuff being emitted from a flash light just way slower so you don't see it, but radios can see it, so guess what - all the effects that can modify visibility can modify radio waves, just in different ways
Radio waves go through walls because they're too low energy to interact with matter. Same with x-rays except the opposite, they are too high energy
When you see multiple colors coming at you at once, they're all there - you can split white light into a rainbow, all those individual frequencies are there

>>8961417
Thanks.
>Radio waves are photons at a different frequency
I remember learning in a physics class something about how light is caused by photons being emitted when, I think, electrons change valence level. But I just watched a lecture on youtube where the guy compares radio waves to water ripples, where each individual water "drop" will move up and down, but not actually move outward. He mentions photons, but doesn't explain how they fit in. I got the impression that when this wave hits your eye, it then interprets it into an image. But what of photons, then? (Also, where does the photon physically come from?)
Also, how do different radio station broadcasts not conflict with one another? I'm under the impression it's because their frequencies are different, but why does that matter?

I was sitting in a boring lecture about triple integrals when I realized this. First, the trivial shit.
Step 1: The number 1 generates a group of order 1 with multiplication. That is because 1 times 1 = 1, so it is closed. The other properties follow trivially.
Step 2: The number -1 generates a group of order 2. This is because (-1)^2 = 1, and (-1)^3 = -1. You probably already know this.
Step 3: i generates a group of order 4. Now the sequence goes i,-1,-i,1,...
And you probably already saw this as an example in a group theory textbook. But here comes THE FUCKING KICKER.
Let [math] \phi = \sqrt{i} [/math]. Now the sequences fucking goes:
[math] \phi , i ,\phi i ,-1 , - \phi, -i, -\phi i,1[/math]
And now [math] \phi [/math] generates a group of order 8!. But I could now take the square root of phi and get a group of order 16.
Holy fucking shit.

You're just taking smaller slices of the "unit circle" in C. 1=e^(i*2pi), -1=e^(i*pi), i = e^(i*(1/2)pi), etc.

I just started taking ADD medication for the first time in years. Anyone else here medicated for it? What differences do you notice? For me I noticed that it has become easier to communicate ideas to students and enunciate words better. Has being medicated helped you study?

I take 50mg of adderall a day.

Generic Engineering Q&A here
I'm a junior in Chemical Engineering, over the last summer and this summer i've been doing process engineering internships or just basic industry work.
Is research, or rather research and development, a possible path?
I'm finding that industry work is pretty damn boring and all the senior engineers seem hella swamped and stressed.

Hi guys, I don´t konw if this can be solved, I need yout help
An engineering athlete leaves his house by bicycle at six o'clock in the morning. He reaches a certain place, he decomposes the bicycle and returns walking. Determines the distance traveled at the time of decompose the bicycle, knowing that the speeds have been 30 km/h by bicycle and 6 km/h walking and arriving at his house at one o'clock in the afternoon. Give your answer in km

It depends on how fast the bicycle decomposes once it dies.
>>
>>8961092
time travelled=time riding bike+time walking
time riding bike+time walking=7 hours
time riding bike=1/5(time walking)
1/5(time walking)+time walking=7 hours
time walking=5.83 hours
distance walked=5.83h*6km/h=35.
You're dumb desu this is a basic system to solve
>>
>>8961092
30*t1 + 6*t2 = 2*d
t1 + t2 = (13-6)
unless i'm missing something i reckon it can't be solved

Why ask sci instead of googling papers on it?
You are not creating an interesting discussion thread but rather asking other people to google papers and research for you.
