Spurious causality hiding an action at a distance
Chun Wa Wong
The Coulomb/Gauss law given in the Maxwell equations describes a spatial relation between the electric field component and its source that…
Maxwell equations and the redundant gauge degree of freedom
Chun Wa Wong
On transformation to the Fourier space , the partial differential Maxwell equations simplify to algebraic equations, and the Helmholtz theorem of vector calculus redu…
The falling chain of Hopkins, Tait, Steele and Cayley
Chun Wa Wong, Seo Ho Youn, Kosuke Yasui
A uniform, flexible and frictionless chain falling link by link from a heap by the edge of a table falls with an acceleration if the motion is nonconservative, but if t…
Two falling-chain demonstrations based on Einstein's equivalence principle
Chun Wa Wong, Seo Ho Youn, Kosuke Yasui
Simple demonstrations based on the equivalence principle are given of how a folded chain and a horizontal flat chain fall down when one chain end is fixed to a rigid support.
Falling chains
Chun Wa Wong, Kosuke Yasui
The one-dimensional fall of a folded chain with one end suspended from a rigid support and a chain falling from a resting heap on a table is studied. Because their Lagrangians cont…
