Define Atwood's machine
Atwood's machine: The weight-and-pulley system devised to compute the acceleration due to gravity at Earth's surface by computing the total acceleration of a set of weights of identified mass about a frictionless pulley.
What does MeV in MeV photon signify? Briefly describe it.
Pauli Exclusion Principle (W. Pauli; 1925): No two similar fermions in a system, like electrons in an atom, can contain an identical set of the quantum numbers.
Copernican principle (N. Copernicus): The idea, recommended by Copernicus, that the Sun, not the Earth, is at the center of the earth. We now know that neither idea is accurate (that is, the Sun is not even situated at the center of o
What do you mean by the term neutral buoyancy? Briefly illustrate it.
Weber: Wb (after W. Weber, 1804-1891): The derived SI unit of magnetic flux equivalent to the flux that, connecting a circuit of one turn, generates in it an electromotive force of 1 V as it is decreased to zero at a uniform rate in a period of 1 s; i
What do you mean by Fission and Fusion?
Explain in short why electron and proton encompass similar charge while the proton is 1836 times heavier?
Does water drain contradict clockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemi-sphere? Briefly explain it.
No-hair conjecture (1960s): The conjecture (confirmed in the 1970s and 1980s) in general relativity that a black hole has merely three salient external characteristics: angular momentum, mass, and electric charge. All the other proper
Complementarity principle (N. Bohr): The principle that a specified system can’t exhibit both wave-like behavior and particle-like behavior at similar time. That is, some experiments will reveal the wave-like nature of a system,
