I am undergraduate student majoring in Physics.I like to see myself as an autodidact who is also a self-deluding dilettante.
Apart from physics, my interests include mathematics and computer science. I am a computer enthusiast and I enjoy science fiction and computer games. I also dabble in English literature, politics and philosophy.
I am a free thinker and advocate a naturalist world view.

Physical Significance of Fourier Transform and Uncertainty Relationships Though the FAQ of Stack Exchange discourages users from adding comments expressing thanks etc. I must say, this was just awesome! Thank you, very much! |

System of Particles and Moment of Mass Well, my textbooks says an expectation value of a random variable is the weighted average of all possible values that this random variable can take on.Mathematically,the expected value is the integral of the random variable with respect to its probability measure. And just one more doubt, what you call probability density and 'probability measure' is the same thing, I guess. Correct me if I am wrong |

System of Particles and Moment of Mass Well, your explanation is pretty straight forward for the first moment of mass but while talking about the second moment of mass, you say that it is the moment of (moment of mass). Since it is dimensionally correct , I guess, it is right but is it the correct of interpreting 'moment of inertia' which is a tensor when talking about a rigid body rotating in 3 D space? We ca get the components by your definition but what about the $ M(X^2+Y^2) $ component of the matrix |
