Define Fermats principle
Fermat's principle: principle of least time (P. de Fermat): The principle, put onward by P. de Fermat that explains the path taken by a ray of light among any two points in a system is for all time the path which takes the least time.
Tachyon paradox: The argument explaining that tachyons (should they subsist, of course) can’t carry an electric charge. For an imaginary-massed particle travelling faster than c, less energy the tachyon has, the faster it travels, till at zero e
why quantum physics is studied? give me some of topics
The velocity of a body was observed to be constant throughout five minutes of its motion. Determine its acceleration during this interval?
How do I find out a maximum current flowing through a resistor with just the resistance of the resistor and it's power rating?
Lagrange points: The points in the vicinity of two massive bodies (like the Earth and Moon) with each others' relevant gravities balance. There are five, labeled L1 via L5. L1, L2, and L3 lie all along the centerline among the centers
Simultaneity principle: The principle which all frames of reference will contain invariant simultaneity; that is, the two events perceived as simultaneous (that is, containing the similar time coordinate) in one frame will be apparent as simultaneous
Briefly illustrate how do fireworks turn to shapes similar to hearts and stars?
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. <
Coanda effect: The effect which points out that a fluid tends to flow all along a surface, instead of flowing via free space.
Joule-Thomson effect: Joule-Kelvin effect (J.P. Joule, W. Thomson [later Lord Kelvin]): The change in temperature which takes place whenever a gas expands into an area of lower pressure.
