The thing I hate a lot as a Physics student is a term in chemistry : molecular weight. Why is it weight it should be just molecular mass. Mass is not same as weight and if it is weight it should have units newton and dyne.

How do i explain this without math. I remember I was in 8th grade learning algebra and my dad walked in and asked me what I was learning. I tried to explain it to him but it sorta went over his head. He came from mexico and had to drop out from school when he was really young but he could add and multiply faster than I could, so i thought maybe he'd be able to understand it if I explained it well enough. He didnt and I felt bad for making him feel dumb. At one point i looked up at him and he smiled and told me it was too complicated for him and that he was amazed at how I could understand it and that he was proud. Im finishing up linear algebra which is the last math class I need in order to transfer to a university as an engineering major and Im damn proud of how far I've come.

The first time I took took dif eq O probably spent that long on some problems. I ended dropping it and retook it with a different professor who had a completely different teaching philosophy. None of his problems took more than 15 minutes. Then I took circuits 1 last semester. Some of those problems probably took me 3+ hours because we used a software program that only allowed a certain number of mistakes (and I'm talking minor mistakes in sub-sub-sub problems) before it'd make you start over from scratch. So I'd be almost done with this really long problem, make a few minor mistakes at the end and then it'd change the numbers and make me start at the beginning! Or worse, I'd do everything completely right, the program would crash without saving my progress, and I'd have to start over again after I got the program to reload. 😠

Aren't the only hermitian unitary operators 1 and -1 since they have to be their own inverse? Edit: on reflection, 1 and -1 are the only possible eigenvalues which a hermitian unitary operator can have; however, they may be distributed arbitrarily among its eigenvectors (which must necessarily span the state space, but are otherwise equally arbitrary).

Look for 3blue1brown and Smarter Every Day videos on Fourier series. Then read wikipedia. Of course, the best would be to get a (not too difficult) book, but I can't help, 'cos mine wasn't in English. I also read Brad Osgood's lecture notes on FT, but they are pretty advanced.

also, google says: In quantum mechanics and particle physics, *spin* is an intrinsic form of angular momentum carried by elementary particles, composite particles, and atomic nuclei.

With vector coordinate systems most laws of things are possible. Each system represent a functional state of space. Space as such is a clear demarkated boundaries of such systems. State of a system depends on how they cluster and interact. Such as electrons have mostly unique frequency in hydrogen clusters. Similarly helium. Atoms are group frequencies and they show difference in types.

Whilst the spin jokes are hilariously true, have you come across the Pauli-Lubanski operator? I think it provides the best intuition for why on earth you get different spin particles, and to a degree what that spin actually means, no?
