Brownian motion
Brownian motion - The continuous random motion of a solid microscopic particle whenever suspended in a fluid medium due to the effect of ongoing bombardment by molecules and atoms.
Drake equation (F. Drake; 1961): The method of estimating the number of intelligent, scientific species (that is, able to communicate with other species) in subsistence in our space. N
Describe the procedure how radiation emitted from the body? Illustrate in brief.
Hooke's law (R. Hooke): The stress exerted to any solid is proportional to the strain it generates within the elastic limit for that solid. The constant of that proportionality is the Young modulus of elasticity for that material.
What do you mean by the term alloy? Briefly illustrate it.
Siemens: S (after E.W. von Siemens, 1816-1892): The derived SI unit of an electrical conductance equivalent to the conductance of an element which has a resistance of 1 O [ohm]; this has units of O-1.
Avogadro's hypothesis (Count A. Avogadro; 1811): Equivalent volumes of all gases at similar temperature and pressure contain equivalent numbers of molecules. This is, in fact, true only for the ideal gases. <
Wien's displacement law constant, b: It is the constant of Wien displacement law. This has the value of 2.897 756 x 10-3 m K.
Hawking temperature: The temperature of a black hole is caused by the emission of the hawking radiation. For a black hole with mass m, it is illustrated as: T = (hbar c3)/(8 pi G k m).
Zeeman Effect: Zeeman line splitting (P. Zeeman; 1896): Zeeman Effect is the splitting of lines in a spectrum whenever the source is exposed to the magnetic field.
Casimir effect (Casimir): The quantum mechanical effect, where two very big plates positioned close to each other will experience an attractive force, in the nonattendance of other forces. The cause is implicit particle-antiparticle p
