light
what is the speed of light?
What do you mean by the term crest? Briefly illustrate it.
Uniformity principle (E.P. Hubble): The principle which the laws of physics here and now are not dissimilar, at least qualitatively, from the laws of physics in preceding or future epochs of time, or somewhere else in the Universe. This principle was
Equivalence principle: The fundamental postulate of Sir Einstein’s general theory of relativity that posits that acceleration is basically indistinguishable from the gravitational field. In another words, when you are in an elevator that is utte
Reflection law: For a wave-front intersecting a reflecting surface, the angle of incidence is equivalent to the angle of reflection, in the similar plane stated by the ray of incidence and the normal.
Coriolis pseudoforce (G. de Coriolis; 1835): The pseudoforce that arises since of motion relative to a frame that is itself rotating relative to the second, inertial frame. The magnitude of the Coriolis "force" is tot
BCS theory - The theory put forth to elucidate both superconductivity and super fluidity. This suggests that in the superconducting (or super fluid) state electrons form Cooper pairs, where two electrons proceed as a single unit. This takes a non
Lenz's law (H.F. Lenz; 1835): The induced electric current always flows in such a direction that it resists the change generating it.
Eotvos law of capillarity (Baron L. von Eotvos; c. 1870): The surface tension gamma of a liquid is associated to its temperature T, the liquid's critical temperature, T*, and its density rho by: gamma ~=
Gauss' law for magnetic fields (K.F. Gauss): The magnetic flux via a closed surface is zero (0); no magnetic charges present; in its differential form, div B = 0
Coulomb: C (after C. de Coulomb, 1736-1806): The derived SI unit of an electric charge, stated as the quantity of charge shifted by a current of 1 A in a period of 1 s; it therefore has units of A s.
