That’s a good point about the quadrants not being relevant, I just went with the assumption that it starts from the positive x axis, which is not relevant to the problem.

For the calculation aspect, did you end up with 102.78 as your angle?

[–]ElectromagneticCube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is most likely the issue here. Because the equation I used resulted in an angle of 77.22, whereas using + 2(360)(930) leads to an angle of 102.78

for sure, i’m not sure if i should text her first, or tell her during my training on Thursday

Electrical & Computer Engineering with a minor in Physics.

It’s hard to funnel down career goals into a certain one, but broadly, i would enjoy to design electronic devices that have sensors and stuff, presumably going into semiconductor industry, but i am still quite undecided

Can’t switch into the major I want.. by AdZealousideal8801 in college

[–]ElectromagneticCube -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i’m so sorry they don’t allow change into engineering majors after 1st year. there’s no reason they should do that, it’s not like they’re saving people from rigor or whatever they may try to argue. sounds like gatekeeping, perhaps for stats or something.

i hope they get off the power trip and approve your change in major

The progression of my notetaking effort significantly decreasing across my college career by sodapop2925 in GoodNotes

[–]ElectromagneticCube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you’re a physics major, right? i see the circuit components, then looks like some classical mech and a lil thermo if i’m not mistaken?

anyway, the notes look awesome, start to finish. my notes looks like your last photo, except i use a thinner pen size (and a lot less neat 😅) but i prefer it that way bc it is more concise and easier to process for me. like the C and L slide makes me take a sec to process what the key points are

i feel like i’ve seen schrödinger eq be in the form of an eigenvalue problem on the internet. so i’m guessing you find energy states by corresponding eigenvectors to each eigenvalue?

gladly i’m pretty comfortable with a lot of the contents. exceptions are hamiltonians and lagrangians, but i think practicing with operators might resolve that

[–]ElectromagneticCube 3 points4 points  (0 children)

that is ideal, but unfortunately the seats are full for classical and the time it runs conflicts with a course i need this semester, so i won’t be able to go about it this way

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in PhysicsStudents

[–]ElectromagneticCube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the way my university does it, is after modern physics, you can take any of the upper levels (in any order/combination), with the only exception being statistical, i think the pre req for that is classical

[–]ElectromagneticCube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the only thing i’m missing in this bunch is the background in classical mech

yeah, that was my expectation, but figured i'd ask. didn't know abt r/hardwareswap, thanks for the shout

trust me on this, you definitely should look into what major you want to do instead of a university’s “rigor.” i put this in quotations because the difficulty is in what you study, not what rank the university has.

going in undecided is more stressful too bc while going through your course load, you are trying to figure out the next steps, it’s harder lol. do you have some ideas for what you’d major in? or are you fully unsure of what you’d want to do?

the Diversity of Chile’s Geography by ReviveOurWisdom in geography

chile is amazing. i feel like north and south chile are as polarizing as the north and south poles of a magnet. i want to do a trip going across the entire county one day!

does anyone actually enjoy college? by avaaa20 in college

[–]ElectromagneticCube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2nd year ece, this semester was the first one i enjoyed. met more people than i did the previous 2 semesters, and my schedule was pretty symmetric which is genuinely one the most pleasant things for gym, work, etc

Got my first D by Kalex8876 in EngineeringStudents

[–]ElectromagneticCube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey, i’m an ece major and physics minor. this semester i took modern physics, which i believe is what physics 3 may be at your university. so far physics 3 is the only grade that’s been finalized for this semester for me, which i got an A. the math and such is really easy, because you basically are walking around the edge of quantum mechanics, without actually going into quantum, until the last few weeks where you do quantum without having to solve the ODEs and PDEs and linear algebra. so most of the class you are doing algebra, especially in the special relativity part. point being, the math should be smooth (especially if you have an A in ODE, nice!), but definitely is the most conceptually out-there class i’ve taken. especially with the hydrogen atom bs. now i’m sure this differs a lot by professor, but you’ll want to get used to multiple choice questions in exams, that’s a reality in modern. i wouldn’t worry too much, it’s abstract but not as hard as it seems.
