A: Is there a more systematic approach to classical mechanics than Newtons second law?
Hi guys. Today I am back with a whole new topic I have never talked about. I intend to do a lot of posts like this as I think it is very educational and I personally love solving problems in classical

Is there a more systematic approach to classical mechanics than Newtons second law?
We have all been there. We were solving some supposedly easy problem where one just had to write out the equations of motion, ie. Newtons second law of motion. It should be simple the teacher said. But

Q: What does the tokamak plasma-wall interaction look like?
I have talked a lot about how one could possibly harness fusion power using tokamaks, and there I mentioned the problematique of the plasma-wall interaction in a tokamak and that it should be minimized

A: Are stellarators alternatives to tokamaks?
So I have to admit something before I begin. Stellarators are insanely more difficult to study as compared to tokamaks and I am no expert on stellarators so please forgive me if I am not as rigorous as
