Taking the top at equilibrium as the origin, establish the coordinate system as shown. Let the position of the top of the block be $y$. The net force on the block is $-\rho_{1}H S g + \rho_{2}(H-h_{0}-y)S g = -\rho_{2}S g y$. The net force on the block is a linear restoring force, and its motion is simple harmonic mot...

For the purpose of calculating gravitational torques, we can treat each branch as if its weight were concentrated at its center of mass. The longer branch’s center of mass is twice as far from the trunk, so the r is doubled. The gravitational force is also twice as much, so τ =rF is four times greater. ANSWER: rF is fo...

The total force on the carbon is zero by symmetry. Let positive be to the right, and consider the forces acting on the oxygen on the right. The total force is kqQ/𝓁2 +kQ2/(2𝓁)2, where 𝓁 is the spacing between the atoms. Setting this to zero gives qQ +Q2/4 = 0, or q/Q =−1/4. ANSWER: −1/4

Counting all three pairs, the total electrical potential energy is kQ2/2𝓁 +kqQ/𝓁 +kqQ/𝓁, which comes out to be zero.

Since it’s a plane wave, the direction of the magnetic field is perpendicular to the electric field and the direction of propagation, so it must be in the ±y direction. What gives E× B in the positive z direction is if the magnetic field is in the +y direction. The Poynting vector is S = (c2/4πk)E× B. Because E and B a...

The Poynting vector of the superimposed waves is (E1+E2)×(B1+B2). If we multiply this expression out, we get four terms. Two of these are just S1 and S2, the Poynting vectors of the separate waves. Now suppose the polarization of the two waves differs by an angle θ. Because they are propagating in the same direction, t...

Gamma gives us a comparison of the rate at which time flows on earth and on the probe. A gamma of one would indicate equal rates. Since the gamma is a tiny bit greater than one, the ratio is a tiny bit different from a one-to-one ratio. Gamma differs from one by 1 .6× 10−9, i.e., 1.6 parts per billion. The disagreement...

Let r = 6.4× 106 m be the radius of the earth, R = 1.5× 1011 m the radius of its orbit, and T = 1 year = 3 .2× 107 s the period of its orbit. Then the velocity is v = (2πR)/T , and we have γ = 1/ 1−v2/c2 = 1 + 4.8× 10−9. The resulting contraction of the diameter is about (4.8× 10−9)(2r) = 6 cm. ANSWER: 6 cm

Codebase & Pipeline Repository: vital-ar/adversarial_physics_problems_solver
Hugging Face Dataset ID: vital-ar/physics-solver-e1-manual-rules-v3

Dataset Overview

solver_e1_manual_det is Dataset 1 (Model 1 / E1) in the Lexsi AI (CuratorKIT + AlignTune + AuditKIT) progressive data-curation ablation study for the Adversarial Physics Problem Solver–Verifier system.

This dataset represents the pre-CuratorKIT Part-1/Part-2 manual deterministic baseline: it contains university-level physics problems passing deterministic Python splitting, regex hygiene, and sentinel rules before CuratorKIT's cross-split embedding anti-leakage deduplicator, MinHash deduplicator, diversity gate, or teacher LLM curation are applied.

  • Role in Ablation Ladder: E1 (452 problems) $\rightarrow$ E2 (608 problems) $\rightarrow$ E3 (622 problems) $\rightarrow$ E4 Solver (758 trajectories) / E4 Verifier (720 trajectories).
  • Target Student Model: CohereLabs/tiny-aya-global (fine-tuned via AlignTune).
  • Evaluation Benchmark: Evaluated with AuditKIT on the strictly leak-free (all-MiniLM-L6-v2 cosine < 0.80) 48-problem Validation and 55-problem Test splits from PhysGym.

Manual Deterministic Rules Applied (Pre-CuratorKIT Baseline)

  1. PhysGym Seed & Crowell Textbook Extraction: Retained bounded PhysGym training seeds and split independent single-target textbook subproblems.
  2. Manual Deterministic Regex Hygiene: Stripped PDF running headers/footers, enforced quantitative single-target formatting and explicit ANSWER: sentinels, and filtered figure-dependent or external cross-reference items.
  3. What Is Still Present (Addressed in E2/E3): Cross-problem phrasing overlap, un-augmented domain coverage gaps, and textbook solutions lacking full CuratorKIT HallucinationGate/RewardGate normalization.

Export-Time CuratorKIT Integrity Gates
