comment Isothermal Gas Expansion, a Reversible or Irreversible process?
Please see our homework policy. We expect homework and homework-like problems to have some effort put into them, and deal with conceptual issues. If you edit your question to explain (1) What you have tried, (2) the concept you have trouble with, and (3) your level of understanding, I'll be happy to reopen this.

comment Is the wave function objective or subjective?
It's usually OK to attempt to fix closed questions yourself, an open question that wasn't exactly what the OP asked is better than a closed one which is.

comment Physics of a cold and hot top
@sweetser: Yep. (btw latex works in comments, use dollar symbols). That equation is usually the best way of looking at such things. $E=mc^2$ gets confusing if the particle is moving too much :)

comment How do we know that time and distance are not discrete?
@Siva: I know, but I recall that some theories assert that space/time becomes meaningless below the planck scale.

comment How do we know that time and distance are not discrete?
Aren't the Planck lengths/time more or less an implementation of discrete space/time? Not exactly, but close enough?

comment Is it possable to create a magnitive field genarator, over the magnitive field
This question makes little to no sense, and there doesn't seem to be any physics involved.

comment Physics of every-day life: rotating bag of tea
@Erik: Well, depends, because water way rise up the bag and into the thread. (Plus the steam may be hot enough to loosen the thread). But the general idea is correct :)

Such answers always amaze me with the depth a seemingly simple question can be answered with :D
