Explain Pascals principle
Pascal's principle: The pressure exerted to an enclosed incompressible static fluid is transmitted undiminished to all portions of the fluid.
Compton Effect (A.H. Compton; 1923): The effect which describes those photons (that is the quantum of electromagnetic radiation) has momentum. The photon fired at a stationary particle, like an electron, will communicate momentum to t
What is the reason that the tea kettle sing? Briefly state the reason.
Define Kelvin or basic SI unit of thermodynamic temperature: Kelvin: K (after Lord Kelvin, 1824-1907): The basic SI unit of thermodynamic temperature stated as 1/273.16 of the thermodynamic temperature of triple point of the water.
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.
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
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
Briefly explain the reason why does sun emerge flat throughout sunrise and sunset?
Tesla: T (after N. Tesla, 1870-1943): The derived SI unit of the magnetic flux density stated as the magnetic flux density of a magnetic flux of 1 Wb via an area of 1 m2; it therefore has units of Wb/m2.
De Broglie wavelength (L. de Broglie; 1924): The prediction that particles too contain wave characteristics, where the efficient wavelength of the particle would be inversely proportional to its momentum, where the constant of the pro
Speed of light (in vacuo): c: The speed at which the electromagnetic radiation spreads in a vacuum; it is stated as 299 792 458 m/s.
