### Is there any other superfluid element except helium?

Is there any other superfluid element except helium? Everywhere we see and speak about superfluidity, we just speak about superfluid helium. but is't there any other element or material or system ...

### Why is the elemental volume of a sphere equal to $4 \pi r^2dr$?

I was doing this question on calculating the electric field at a certain point in a sphere (length $r$ away from the centre), where the charge density is given by an equation. When I checked the ...

### Expansion of solids on heating

I read that when we heat a solid, it expands! Based on circumstances it can expand in area, length and volume! My question is , that do they expand to a certain extent or keep on expanding, if we ...

### Differences between empiric laws of Galileo and Kepler

Although in both cases we encounter empiric laws, as far as I know Galileo's laws of motion differ in some way from Kepler's laws of planetary movements. In what way?

### How to write magnetic dipole transition hamiltonian using ladder operator?

The magnetic dipole transition Hamiltonian is $\hat{H}=\frac{e}{2m_ec}\hat{\mathbf{B}}\cdot\hat{\mathbf{L}}$ How do I express it in terms of ladder operator $\hat{L}_+$, $\hat{L}_-$, and the ...

### Why can't our universe be spherical? [duplicate]

if we happen to follow the bigbang singularity hypothesis, when he explosion occured shouldn't it expand in all directions. Seemingly our universe shouldn't have any boundaries. I searched for the ...

### Why are we not able to visualize Dimensions beyond 3 (or maximum 4 including time)?

We consciously know and feel the first three dimensions and with some thinking time as well. But according to literature like String theory etc., we have many many more dimensions. We can readily ...

### Normal coordinates for harmonic approximation (classical lattice vibration)

I am reading Jenő Sólyom's "Fundamentals of the Physcs of Solids" vol. 1. and i am very much stuck at this point (chapter 11.3.2 in the book): In the harmonic approximation the potential energy of a ...

### Electrostatic potential due to two charge system

When we calculate electric potential energy of a two particle system, say first I bring $+q_1$ and then I bring $+q_2$ against $q_1$'s electric field. Say I get that $q_2$ charge to a point $r$ ...

### Laser output below, just above and way above threshold?

I've been reading up on lasers recently and learnt that within the cavity while the laser light is amplified by the gain coefficient, it loses power due to transmission and absorption. Suppose the ...
