This list only includes problems from theoretical physics, I prefer a list that also includes some problems from experimental physics and applied physics. Problems about superconductivity, neutrino detection, among others areas.
- pigbucket 17y agoAlso worthy: the physics of mathematical objects. E.g., Why doesn't the square on the hypotenuse just slide off?
- colah 17y agoEr... What!?! > Why doesn't the square on the hypotenuse just slide off? This is nonsensical to me. Could you please elaborate? You seem to be asking why an idea isn't effected by gravity...
- pigbucket 17y agoI'm sure ideas are affected by gravity (think Aristotle, and the idea of rest), generously understood, and according to one story about an apple even effected by gravity, but as for the square falling off the hypotenuse, that was just a joke, which has itself fallen quite flat.
