Define Second or SI unit of time
Second: s: The basic SI unit of time, stated as the period of time equivalent to the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation analogous to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of cesium-133 atom.
What is Farad or SI unit of capacitance? Farad: F (after M. Faraday, 1791-1867): The derived SI unit of the capacitance stated as the capacitance in a capacitor that, when charged to 1 C, contains
Refraction law: For a wave-front travelling via a boundary among two media, the first with a refractive index of n1, and the other with one of n2, the angle of incidence theta is associated to the angle of refraction phi by:
Schwarzschild radius: The radius ‘r’ of the event horizon for a Schwarzschild black hole of mass m is specified by (in geometrized units) r = 2 m. In its conventional units: r = 2 G m/c2
Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen effect: EPR effect: Consider the subsequent quantum mechanical thought-experiment: Take a particle that is at rest and has spun zero (0). This spontaneously decays into two fermions (spin 1/2 particles), that stream away in the
Does solar radiation encompass a complete spectrum of all the forms of electromagnetic radiation?
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
Does water drain contradict clockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemi-sphere? Briefly explain it.
Ehrenfest paradox (Ehernfest, 1909): The special relativistic "paradox" including a fast rotating disc. As any radial segment of the disc is perpendicular to the direction of motion, there must be no length contraction of the radius;
