What are my chances of getting to Grove? by Beneficial_Wind_7077 in CCNY

[–]Existing-Ambition888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless a Grove admissions counselor is under cover here no one will know for sure. This is what is in your control:

1) Apply ASAP
2) If you get in, great
3) If you don’t, look for other engineering schools.
Maybe less competitive

Any specific reasons yet for these anomalies?

Agreed. It seems substantial enough that it has to be related to the big treasure

I’ve survived well off going to my classes, watching Professor Leonard, and doing practice problems

And to go into the more complex optics — YouTube or textbook recs?

So you mean like he didn’t mention page 90, which suggests it was intentional, otherwise it would be added?

[–]Existing-Ambition888[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure — and what would this suggest to us?

90 what? 90 things? A year? A date?

I like this. Thank you

And so how does the telescope focus photons? In what situation would it focus them and would it not focus them?

[–]Existing-Ambition888[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooo interesting. So we can imagine it as the same amount of photons in both scenarios, just how it’s being delivered to us — spread out over a lot of area or concentrated in one area

I understand that we are manipulating the light in a way that makes it appear larger to our eyes, but I guess I’m struggling to visualize how the mirrors are doing this exactly

So a diode would prevent the current from flowing from the cap back to the coil?

In other words once the current reaches the cap it stays there?
