/sci/ - Science & Math

I don't really follow space shit that much but when SLS is done, itll be reusable right? It's been in development for close to 10 years I think so they surely wouldn't have it be a 1 time rocket that can't be reused right? Or once the 1st one is made they can churn out others in like a year or less no? What's the deal here I dont follow

I want to study physics, CS, economics, i'm thinking of doing physics because it seems the most difficult and do the rest by myself, is it possible?

Surely depleting ATP is not that hard?

Or it's misunderstood info?

Why is rain such a no go situation for rockets?? They go up into space surely they can handle rain no?

Like, I get how you can perceive time differently (the whole moving away from a clock at the speed of light thing) but isn't a second just a second???? I was watching interstellar and the scene where they were on the water planet and said that an hour on the planet was like a few years or whatever, how does that work??? isn't a year a year no matter if youre traveling at the speed of light or near a gravity well? isnt time constant??? Explain to me please /sci/ I'm not a scifag but i am interested in this

How the fuck do you get an internship at NASA at 17????? I can't get one and I'm in the middle of getting my bs for comp sci

so... mississippi is 10 point over vermont?

Have you ever had a college class so difficult that you either failed it and had to retake it or just dropped it all together /sci/???

Does anyone know a good formula for converting the activity of a pure radionuclide into a dose at a given distance? I know there are some calculators online but I am trying to figure out the math behind it. You guys are my last hope.

Why do mnemonics work?
If something is hard to remember and you memorize an additional mnemonic for it, doesn't that demand more effort because you have to memorize more?
Why does it work then? Why does it make it easier?

Anon how was the exam?
Did you inject the cocaines?

Since the Hamiltonian of a system is an observable which can be measured with arbitrary precision, and the Hamiltonian depends on both momentum and position, doesn't that mean the position and momentum can be measured simultaneously with arbitrary precision?

so is the 4th dimensions time or not?

Are researchers really standing on the shoulders of giants?

If i sit on my arm long enough, can i give myself an aneurysm or similar medical complication?

Why do scientific articles contain words, terms and theorems that can't be found with Google, the largest storage of knowledge there is?

For example, I was reading some articles through yesterday and found these words
>exceptional point (optics related; zero google results)
>downstream (when talking about electric current, zero google results)
>non-Hermitian systems don't obey conservation laws (zero google results)

Pajeets and shitskins just making words up these days?

What I mean by this is that i believe there are certain things not all humans can do. Mainly physical things, like if you arent a great singer naturally, good chance you wont make money off of it, or if you arent super tall or athletic you will not be able to become a professional athlete. Is math similar in fashion where you need a certain way of thinking/disposition, or is it purely effort based where even a retard would be able to grasp the concept of higher level mathematics with enough effort, regardless of how smart he is? Does effort go that far or do you need something else entirely???

Why is it called "Pythagorean theorem" when it is an axiom?

Can anyone think of a single system where something internal to that system improves upon the whole system, from the inside.

I can’t. Therefore science as it is conventionally conceptualized (humans internal to the universe improving upon the universe) seems to me to be a priori impossible. Either there is some part of the scientist which is nonphysical and is literally outside of the universe in a meaningful way, or the scientist is not improving anything through her efforts.

Where can I find a good source to teach myself/learn about contour integrals and imaginary analysis and residue theorem and the like? I've been struggling to find any at all

brainlet check

arto=16
canto=19
porto=22
mento=?

I'm not sure if I study mathematics because I like mathematics or because I subconsciously want to make others think that I'm smart.
