Get started for freeVarious organic molecules have been discovered in interstellar space. Why were these discoveries made with radio telescopes rather than optical telescopes?
Assume that the universe has an edge. Placing yourself at that edge in a thought experiment, explain why this assumption violates the cosmological principle.
A student asserts that a material particle must always have a speed slower than that of light, and a massless particle must always move at exactly the speed of light. Is she correct? If so, how do massless particles such as photons and neutrinos acquire this speed? Can’t they start from rest and accelerate? Explain.
A high-speed train passes a train platform. Larry is a passenger on the train, Adam is standing on the train platform, and David is riding a bicycle toward the platform in the same direction as the train is traveling. Compare the length of a train car as measured by Larry, Adam, and David.
In Fig. 40.28, how does the probability of finding a particle in the center half of the region compare to the probability of finding the particle in the outer half of the region? Is this consistent with the physical interpretation of the situation?
