Tsunami That Never Came

It has been a long long while since I last wrote.

At the moment, the adult world is having the Pau contest. They are figuring who is to contest Mr Ang Wah for the title of the Pao master. In the miniature world of the 2007 JPA students, there is also a pairing exercise going on. The bees(ybodies) are busy figuring out which pot of honey belongs to which worker bee and forgotten that their job is to serve the queen bee. Some even want to claim not one but TWO pots of honey!! I say :-why not leaves the honey as pure, the mutiara as suci and the xy stays as variables. Is the activity the way of de-stress the stressful life of the JPA students ? Or .... ???

I started the extra classes in anticipation that the circular motion,vibration and the waves will set the fluid in your cochlea perpetual in motion and throw you off balance. The classes is to cushion off the tsunami effect of the waves. As the result,the number of students that came to see me dwindle and they are as happy as ever. Maybe the extra classes did the trick.

For some reasons I have to cancel the Tuesday extra class, so to balance off, I cancel the Monday class as well. There were joys around except one soft voice asking "why?" . It makes me wonder " Am I adding stress to them instead of reducing it?" It makes me Wonder...wonder.

Maybe I have taught them well that they have less doubts now (which I hope so) ; maybe they are more mature to seek out the answers themselves instead of relying only on me (which I will be very glad to know that) or maybe they are complacent thinking that they have the extra 2 hrs to cushion off and hope that it can be increased further.

Whatever it is, the benefit of doubts is always for the students,but sometimes it is beyond my control. Like the saying : Kita yang merancang, Tuhan yang menentukannya.

On the stationary waves 1st question, the electrons are assumed to be travelling like waves. This is called the duality of wave - particle which we will discuss in quantum Physics. It outlines that there is a wave property in particle (like diffraction) and a particle characteristic in wave (like momentum). So in this question, we will answer that motion of electrons act as standing waves in the orbit, as such, there are always complete number of waves in each orbit. In higher orbit, higher number of waves will be formed so that their frequencies are higher. The energy level of each atom is discrete.

Till then.
