Show that in general a skew-symmetric tensor such as the spin tensor W has only one real principal value λ. Determine λ and the corresponding direction ˆn in terms of the components w1 = −W23, w2 = −W31, w3 = −W12 of the vector ˆω.

Consider a uniformly charged ring in the xy plane, centered at the origin. the ring has radius a and positive charge qdistributed evenly along its circumference. a)what is the direction of the electric field at any point on the z axis? . b)what is the magnitude of the electric field along the positive z axis? use k in your answer, where k=14πϵ0. d)the ball will oscillate along the z axis between z=d and z=−d in simple harmonic motion. what will be the angular frequency ω of these oscillations? use the approximation d≪a to simplify your calculation; that is, assume that d2+a2≈a2. express your answer in terms of given charges, dimensions, and constants

What are the similarities & differences between a thermistor and a light dependent resistor in physics?

A14 kg rock starting from rest free falls through a distance of 5.0 m with no air resistance. find the momentum change of the rock caused by its fall and the resulting change in the magnitude of earths velocity. earth mass is 6.0 * 10^24 kg. show your work assuming the rock earth system is closed.
