Q&A Why would a 1.74 index lens be more prone to chip and be less resilient than 1.67?

My optician counselled me I don't recommend a 1.74 index with a metal grooved frame, like the one you want from ic! Berlin, because the edge will be less resilient and be more susceptible to chi...

Q&A To what extent does blender speed dissolve table salt + cold tap water?

No, you don't need the highest setting. Just stirring gently is enough, anything more won't help much. Salt dissolves very well in water. It dissolves so well, that an area of very salty water for...

Gravitational waves can be derived from the non-linear Einstein field equations and since they are by definition waves they must obey the wave equation: $u_{tt}=c^{2}u_{xx}$ but in General Rela...

Problems Why used $\cos\theta$ for $\text{y}$ axis or, gravitational force?

Force is perpendicular to the surface. And, green color "rod" is parallel to the surface. So, $$F = N - mg\cos \theta=0$$ Reference
