Is there an equation that tells you more about the amplitude of an object which is in resonance? If you mean the amplitude at resonance then you can looked into "the damped driven harmonic oscillator." There are loads of pages on this thing. It's basically required knowledge for physics students. |

Does the uncertainty principle apply to photons? Good answer -- I'll comb over the links when I have some free time this week. |

Can a object with constant acceleration change its trajectory? If you throw a ball in space it will travel in a straight line. It you throw a ball on earth where it feels gravity (a constant acceleration) then it will follow a curved line instead. |

Radiation: Inverse square law It doesn't show intensity vs. distance. This is intensity vs. thickness/meter, whatever that means. It looks like the law is $I_0/2^{T/m}$, where $T/m$ is the thickness/meter. |

Parallel circuits - Overall resistance decreases with additional resistor @joshphysics I edited it for clarity. I tried the above version (cut out the "coaxial" stuff -- it was unnecessary.) Tried it on the students today and they really liked it (for what its worth.) |
