Ocean waves breaking slowly at the shore during periods of turbulence

During storms, I have often watched ocean waves breaking at the shore as if they were in slow motion. I've wondered if the slow curling of the waves during these...

Entropy for perfect gas, to show that $mathrm{d}S = c_vfrac{mathrm{d}p}{p} + c_pfrac{mathrm{d}V}{V}$

I am trying to show that for ideal gas: $mathrm{d}S = c_vfrac{mathrm{d}p}{p} + c_pfrac{mathrm{d}V}{V}$ But I keep getting an additional term $frac1Tleft(frac{partial U}{partial V}right)_Tmathrm{d}V$. What is...

Entropy change for molecular nitrogen

Calculate specific entropy change for $N_2$ from 250 K and 1000 kPa to 1300 K and 60 kPa using $Delta s=phi_2-phi_1-Rln (frac{p_2}{p_1})$ given that $phi_1=6.6587 kJ/kg/K$ and...

A discrepancy between the usual interpretation of Bell's theorem and a full theory of quantum gravity

**** This question has been modified following the discussion below. **** Bell’s theorem says, in a nutshell, that “local hidden-variable theories (HVT) cannot exist” (since they contradict QM in Bell...

Could graviton exist in a single polarisation?

Penrose's twistor theory can only construct a left-handed graviton. This is seen as a problem. But... is there anything wrong with gravitons existing in only one polarisation? How would gravity...

Trying to work out the CP-transformation property of the Higgs potential

The parity transformation property of a complex scalar field $phi(x)$ is given by: $$Pphi(t,textbf{x}) P^{-1}=eta_Pphi(t,-textbf{x})$$ where $eta_P=pm 1$. The charge conjugation property of a complex scalar field $phi(x)$ is given...

Total angular momentum operator

How do the eigenfunctions of the total angular momentum operator analytically look like? I mean the operator is given by $J = L+S$ so the eigenfunctions have to be...
