Why do we need the reduced planck's constant?

For context, I'm an undergraduate student in physics. We just started our Quantum Mechanics course. After class, I went through the 'Introduction to Quantum Mechanics' textbook by Griffiths and encountered the reduced planck's constant in the Schrodinger's equation.

If it's equal to h/2pi, wouldn't it make sense to just write that?

Idk, I'm new to this, so I don't get it yet

Do yall tune into GTV, like the yt live?

I find myself using it almost like my music app at this point, so I was wondering if there's anyone else?

It's been running since 5th March 2026.

Where do I begin with quantum mechanics?

Hey, guys! I'm an undergraduate student in physics and I'm also pursuing a research course on the side. So far, I've never been exposed to quantum mechanics and I'm equal parts nervous and excited. I have about a week until they start the course in quantum mechanics and I wanna have something of a headstart. Where do I begin? Any textbooks you guys would recommend?

A collaboration on a Pinterest board, anyone?

I thought it'd be nice if we could have a Pinterest board for the Earthsea series. So far, I've only added a few of the different book covers.

Let me know if I should create one for each book?

Here's the link if anyone wants to collaborate. https://pin.it/YYgSK28Ia

Old painting I made a couple months ago

Made this painting a few months ago. Painted only one layer, never really finished it. I'd planned to do a few more. Should I repaint it? I wonder if I should try making it digitally this time.

ALSO, please give me better references for Murdoc if you guys have any, thank you! Preferably from the earlier eras, when he was less green.

Need help exploring different cuisines!

Hey y'all. I'm someone who's pretty broke and has a decent experience with cooking. Growing up with our Indian culture, it was all we cooked at home. Anything else we'd eat would always be outside of the home. I'm tired of this. I don't want to have to go out every time I wanna eat something from another culture, so I've decided to ask here if there are any vegetarian dishes you'd recommend me, from different cuisines. Things that are relatively easy to cook and that are affordable for a broke person. Peace out.

Price of spare part?

Bought my ather 450x a couple months ago. Found the ignition part vandalized, the plastic part was completely removed. This happened in April. Will go to a service center near me and get it fixed tomorrow. How much might it cost? Will it be covered under insurance? Also, how is the experience at a service center, usually? This is my first time

Need advice, please.

I'm a BSc student in physics and math, and am interested in pursuing research in physics and astronomy. Also preparing for IIT JAM and pursuing a research course in astrophysics on the side.

I'm in my second year now, and I genuinely don't find myself with enough time to do well with college, study for IIT JAM and continue with my research course. It's just a lot. Should I consider a drop for IIT JAM after I graduate? Is it worth it?

P.S. for all the people preparing for competitive exams during/after your undergraduate degree, what's your studying schedule like?? Mine is pretty chaotic despite trying my best constantly.

Any advice helps.

Need tips on retention

I'm someone who studies physics, astronomy, math and computer science. I'd say I'm decently productive, but I need tips on how to retain whatever I end up studying. Any advice helps!

Looking for an accountability partner!

Hey, y'all. About to start preparing for the IIT JAM. I am a BSc in physics and mathematics at the moment. I am looking for accountability partners, preferably people who are also preparing for the same exam :)
