Define Kirkwood gaps
Kirkwood gaps (Kirkwood): The gaps in the asteroid belt, caused by the resonance effects from Jupiter. Similar gaps are also exists in Saturn's rings, due to the resonance effects of the shepherd moons.
Hall Effect: Whenever charged particles flow via a tube that has both an electric field and a magnetic field (that is perpendicular to the electric field) present in it, only assured velocities of the charged particles are favored, and will make it un
Explain how asteroids are formed? Describe.
What do you understand by the term anti-aliasing? Describe briefly?
Does solar radiation encompass a complete spectrum of all the forms of electromagnetic radiation?
Trojan points: L4 and L5 are the two dynamically stable Lagrange points (that is, beneath certain conditions).
Charles' law (J.A.C. Charles; c. 1787): The volume of an ideal gas at constant (steady) pressure is proportional to the thermodynamic temperature of that gas.
Uncertainty principle (W. Heisenberg; 1927): A principle, central to the quantum mechanics that states which two complementary parameters (like energy and time, position and momentum, or angular momentum and angular displacement) can’t both be r
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
Schroedinger's cat (E. Schroedinger; 1935): A thought experiment designed to exemplify the counterintuitive and strange ideas of reality that come all along with the quantum mechanics. A cat is sealed within a clos
Young's experiment: double-slit experiment (T. Young; 1801): A well-known experiment that exhibits the wave nature of light (and certainly of other particles). The light is passed from a small source into an opaque screen with the two thin slits. The
