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...

Q&A SI Units of wavefunction

What are the SI units of the wavefunction Ψ(x).I know that [Ψ(x)]^2 describes the probabilty of finding a quantum object at a certain quantum state but what about the wavefunction instead?

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...
