Panfish

A panfish is a kind of fish (usually pursued by recreational anglers) that do not out grow the size of a frying pan. It is a term used by recreational anglers for small fish which could fit into a pan, but it is edible and legal for eating.

Example of a pan fish.


Species of the panfish 

  • Bluegill (Lepomis machrochirus) 
  • Green sunfish (Lepomis cyanellus) 
  • Redear sunfish (Lepomis microlophus) 
  • Redbreast sunfish (Lepomis auritus) 
  • Spotted sunfish (Lepomis punctatus) 
  • Pumpkinseed (Lepomis gibbosus) 
  • Warmouth (Chaenobryttus gulosus) 


The size of a pan fish 
However, it is stated above that the size of the panfish is a fish that takes the size of a frying pan. But a typical size of the bluegill exist which is about 4 to 12 inches and has  a maximum size of 16 inches. The largest bluegill ever existed was caught in the year 1950, with an average size of about 4 pounds (12 ounces).

Maxwell fourth equation

The Maxwell fourth equation is called "the modified Ampere's circuital law". Statement: It states that the line integral of the magnetic field H around any closed part or circuit is equal to the current enclosed by the path. Differential form (without modification): That is, $$\int H.dL = I$$ Let the current be distributed through the current with current density J, then: $$I = \int J. ds$$ This implies that: $$\int H.dL = \int J.ds$$ .........(9) Applying Stokes theorem to the LHS of equ(9) to change line integral to surface integral we have: $$\int_{s} (\nabla X H).ds = \int_{s} J.ds$$ Since, two surface integrals are equal only if their integrands are equal. Thus, $$\nabla X H =J$$ .........(10) Equ(10) is the differential form of Maxwell fourth equation (without modification) Take divergence of equ(10) $$\nabla.(\nabla X H) = \nabla.J$$ Since, the divergence of the curl of a vector is zero.  Therefore, $$\nabla.(\nabla X H) = 0$$ It means that $...

Time dependent Schrodinger equation

Recall from the time independent Schrodinger equation: $$-\frac{\hbar^{2}}{2m} \nabla^{2} \psi(r) + V(r) \psi(r) = E \psi(r)$$ ........(1) Multiply both sides of equ (1) by \(\phi(t)\), we have: $$-\frac{\hbar^{2}}{2m} \nabla^{2} \psi(r) \phi(t) + V(r) \psi(r) \phi(t) = E \psi(r) \phi(t)$$ ..........(2) Recall: $$\psi(r) \phi(t) = \Psi(r,t)$$ .............(3) Substitute equ (3) into equ (2): $$-\frac{\hbar^{2}}{2m} \nabla^{2} \Psi(r,t) + V(r) \Psi(r,t) = E \Psi(r,t)$$ .........(4) Recall that the well known Planck-Einstein relation is given by: $$E = hv$$ ...........(5) And also, the reduced Planck's constant is given by: $$\hbar = \frac{h}{2\pi}$$ ................(6) Also recall that time dependence is given by: $$\phi(t) = C_+ exp(-i2\pi vt) + C_- exp(i2\pi vt)$$ ..........(7) Substituting equ (6) into (5), we have: $$V = \frac{E}{\hbar 2 \pi}$$ ..........(8) Substitute equ (8) into equ (7) $$\phi(t) = C_+ exp(-i2 \pi \frac{E}{\hbar 2 \pi} t)  + C_- exp(i2 \pi \f...

Schrodinger equation as a law in physics

The unified theory of wave-particle duality has been used to derive the Schrödinger equations. The Schrodinger equations are generally accepted, by postulate rather than derivation, to be laws of physics. The Schrodinger equations provide a basis for analyzing many kinds of systems (molecular, atomic, and nuclear) in a particular inertial reference frame. The success of the Schrödinger equations constitutes a basis for accepting them, their derivations, and the unified theory of wave-particle duality which makes such derivations possible. This acceptance is completely justified in the favored inertial reference frame. In accord with the principle of relativity, all physical laws must be the same in all inertial reference frames, i.e., all physical laws must be Lorentz invariant. Recall, the relationship: $$\nabla^{2} \psi = \frac{\partial^{2} \psi}{\partial t^{2}}$$ ...........(1) Equ (1) is Lorentz invariant and reduces, by means of the procedure presented in the previou...
