      Isn’t the mathematical language a tool for studying other natural language topologies as well? Just as the astronomers who are studying the innumerable celestial objects, could we not study the words of natural languages to understand their effects on the biological phenomena (such as anger, emotions, motivations, leaderships) and resulting societal behaviors? Could their be forces such as the electromagnetic or weak nuclear, that emerge from neuronal memories? Just wondering!!

I had learned to note the integration over a closed are using a double integral sign with the circle rather than what looks like a line integral sign with the subscript "s" that you use. Thanks for this, clear as usual. I'm reviewing all my college math/physics from 40 years ago for no particular reason.

    One question at 10:30 ... is it correct you mean the curl of gradient is zero? I learned in electro dynamics the curl of divergence is zero, known as Poincaré-Lemma. One Application is the second Maxwell's eqation, div B = 0, when B is curl A . Thanks for your comment :)

    • @bobross5716

      Did you mean divergence of the curl? Because you can't take a curl of a divergence since a divergence returns a scalar and the curl needs a vector.

      @@tanvirfarhan5585 According to quantum mechanics, electrons can sort of go in the nucleus, they can quantum tunnel through it. However they can't stay there due to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle (if they stayed in the nucleus we would know their position/momentum and their energy with a high degree of certainty which is not allowed). The Schrodinger equation predicts the existence of quantum tunneling. For the hydrogen atom, the equation also predicts that electrons will spend most (but not all) of their time at certain distances that correspond to the Bohr radii (radiuses).
      The Bohr model doesn't explain why there are levels, it just says that they exist and predicts their values. Bohr and other scientists knew that this wasn't a complete explanation and wanted to figure out why these levels in particular were allowed and not others. The Schrodinger equation offers a deeper (but still incomplete) understanding.
