| Why aren't the bows of submarines pointy?? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 03:14 PM PST Wouldn't a pointed bow cut through the water better? [link] [comments]  |
| Could there possibly be black holes that formed from collapsing dark matter? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 07:07 PM PST If the universe is infused with dark matter, would it not have become "clumpy" due to gravity, just like normal matter did (forming superclusters, galaxies, stars, etc)? And therefore, would there not be black holes that formed as clumps of dark matter collapsed, with very little matter nearby? [link] [comments]  |
| Does the brain send signals consistently to keep a muscle in the same state? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 10:59 AM PST When I, for example, hold one arm straight to the side, does the brain continuously give the signal to keep the muscle extended or does it just make the arm extend once and it will stay extended until a different signal comes in?

| Is remembering a dream the same mechanism as remembering something in real life? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 11:13 AM PST For example, why is my memory so bad when it comes to dreams but not as bad with real life experiences? [link] [comments]  |
| Do some animals get rabies more often? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 02:03 PM PST I have read of both raccoons and bats getting rabies a lot. Is there something that makes them more likely to contract rabies? And if so why? [link] [comments]  |
| How do axes of orbit for planetary bodies and their natural satellites work? Posted: 02 Dec 2019 05:05 AM PST For the Earth and the Moon, the ratio of mass between the Moon and the Earth is so weighted on Earth's side that the moon goes in orbit around the centre of mass of the Earth. However, suppose that we have two bodies that are similar in mass and size. Is it possible for a configuration to exist where there is an imaginary centre of orbit that lies on a straight line between the two planets' centre of gravity that they both orbit around, on opposite sides? How would orbits of planets and large satellites work? Is there a reason for our solar system only containing natural satellites that are much lighter than their orbital planet? [link] [comments]  |
| Is temperature affected relativistically? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 03:26 PM PST So I'm no expert, but I've got an interested amateurs understanding of relativity. But it occurred to me I've no idea how these concepts related to temperature. Temperature is some measure of the speed of particles in a substance, so it seems it must be affected by relativity but how does it work out? Does this mean there's an absolute maximum temperature governed by C, and are there other relativity effects in play too? Or is temperature something defined in a way that makes these questions irrelevant? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Dec 2019 01:22 AM PST I like to watch physics videos and listen to physics audiobooks that aren't necessarily made for physicists, but explain things like CPT symmetry, Bell's inequality, etc. in a way that most people would understand. Usually I can at least understand the concept without fully understanding the actual equations behind it. But when I try to look up anything about DeSitter, Minkowski, and anti-DeSitter space, all the results are written in equations, and I haven't been able to find a simple explanation of these concepts. Without dumbing it down too much, can someone help me understand what these terms actually mean? [link] [comments]  |
| Why don't we define units of length and time in terms of Planck length and Planck time? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 07:13 AM PST Just historical reasons? Technically this is closer to linguistics than physics but it relates more to the practise of physics than to the practise of linguistics so I have it flaired as physics. [link] [comments]  |

| How do donated organs remain viable without blood flow? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 09:45 AM PST If someone sustains a heart attack, the muscle is damaged b/c of no oxygenated blood flow. When a heart is removed for donation, there's also no blood flow. Icing helps how? What is the window of viability? If the organ is implanted at the far end of the window, is there some substantial damage that might heal? [link] [comments]  |
| Is there a classification system for biological viruses? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 02:00 PM PST I'm making a social media loosely themed around viruses and how they spread from person to person, but I'm kind of stuck. I want to include a system for classifying posts, but I can't think of a name for it. I want the name to be simple and easy to remember, such as subreddits, categories, or areas. "Classifications" would be too complicated, for example. I should probably mention that they won't behave anything like subreddits. That's just an example Thing is, I really want the name of them to be themed around viruses in some way. So is there a simple word used to classify viruses? [link] [comments]  |

| Where do dubstep "wub-wub" sounds come from? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 04:48 PM PST Could someone with audio engineering background give me a quick rundown on where do these sounds come from? Are they processed samples? Completely synthetic? Is there some magic behind them? Is there a reason why they suddenly emerged a few years back and haven't really been used prior? I am putting "Computing" as a flair, since I assume it's all digital processing. Physics felt too broad of a category for something dealing purely with sound. [link] [comments]  |

| How is the age requirements do dosage for kid drugs determined? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 04:05 PM PST Little back story. I have a year and 8 month old boy, he's big for his size, not fat just big. Some Medicines have a 2 years and older requirement and I was wondering how that age was determined? There's no way they just turn 2, some magic happens and medicines are ok for them now. Stupid iPhone: The title should say "How is the age requirement and dosage for kids drugs determined?" [link] [comments]  |

| Can two unstable particles be in an entangled state that causes their decay to be synchronized? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 09:44 AM PST My intuition is that this would require hidden variables to work, since the wave function does not contain enough information to predict when a particle will decay. Beause the decay time is not a property of the wave function there would be no part of the particle's wave function that could be entangled to ensure that they decay at the same time. But I could easily have overlooked something, so I'm asking to be sure. [link] [comments]  |
| Why exactly does the smoke ring on smoked meats turn red? Posted: 01 Dec 2019 02:28 AM PST On smoked meats, the outer ring turns red when it's been smoked. And I was wondering why? The wood isn't red. The other parts of the meat doesn't turn red. [link] [comments]  |
