Free Book: "Physics Problems for Nerds" by Lars Schweidenback. Book contains test problems for algebra-based physics, drawn from popular fiction to maintain student interest. Example: "In the movie Die Hard 4, John McClane knocks a helicopter out of the sky by launching a police car off a ramp and into the helicopter. The car is traveling 70.0 mph when it reaches the end of a 40.0˚ ramp. The car leaves the ramp at a height of 1.25m above the ground. If the helicopter is 17.5 m away, how high above the ground is the helicopter when the police car hits it? (1 mile = 1609 m) Link: milneopentextbooks.org/physics-proble…

@pickover Love this thanks ... In late 90's produced TV show for the BBC called 'Hollywood Science' exploring the scientific validity of screen stuns like John Maclane in Die Hard with a firehose breaking is fall ... some years later Mythbusters made a fortune with a variation on my idea

This year marks 38 years since #RitaSueandBobToo was released. Siobhan, George Costigan and Michelle Holmes reunited on the Buttershaw Estate in 2017, 30 years after the release. What was your favourite scene from Rita, Sue and Bob Too? @MHolmesActress

@pickover Great to see this ... Louis de Broglie Thesis was earlier though 1924 and only 3 pages long ... wave particle duality a fundamental basis of Quantum Theory

It's fascinating that Paul Dirac's 1926 PhD thesis is simply titled "Quantum Mechanics," and consists of handwritten text and formulas with scribbles and crossed-out text. As the first-ever PhD thesis on the subject, it reflects the era's norms before widespread use of typewriters or printing for such documents. It includes numerous "sloppy" elements typical of a working draft: sprawling, sometimes sloping equations that fill pages irregularly, frequent strikeouts (crossings-out) where Dirac revised calculations or derivations, and marginal notes jotted in his unique notation system. These features offer a glimpse into his iterative thought process, such as working through algebraic axioms, quantum numbers, and particle motion in central fields, often with equations rambling across the page before corrections. The full manuscript spans about 72 pages.

Congrats to Prof J Clarke … his work on Superconducting Quantum Interference Device SQUID was crucial to my PhD in Physics … without which I’d never have got to be an award winning TV Producer 😀 … thanks John I met him at a couple of conferences in the 80s lovely guy 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
