A paradox of the precession of a stick
I can see that a heavy flywheel around an axis experiences precession. But when I look at the equation:
$$ \dot{\omega} = (I \omega) \times \omega + \tau ,$$
where $\omega$ is angular velocity in the ...

Electric potential of a spherical shell [duplicate]
To find the electric potential of a uniformly-charged spherical shell at surface, we use formula $V=kq/r$, and potential inside is the same (as $V$ is constant). But according to Gauss's law, inside ...
