What is Reflection law
Reflection law: For a wave-front intersecting a reflecting surface, the angle of incidence is equivalent to the angle of reflection, in the similar plane stated by the ray of incidence and the normal.
Briefly state how does the elevation and air pressure affects the boiling point of water?
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
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.
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.
Michelson-Morley experiment (A.A. Michelson, E.W. Morley; 1887): Probably the most famous null-experiment of all time, designed to confirm the existence of the proposed "lumeniferous aether" via which light waves were considered to pr
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
Gauss' law (K.F. Gauss): The electric flux via a closed surface is proportional to the arithmetical sum of electric charges contained in that closed surface; in its differential form, div E = rho,
Boltzmann constant: k (L. Boltzmann) - The constant that explains the relationship between kinetic energy and temperature for molecules in an ideal gas. This is equivalent to the 1.380 622 x 10-23 J/K.
Superconductivity: The phenomenon by which, at adequately low temperatures, a conductor can conduct the charge with zero (0) resistance. The current theory for describing superconductivity is the BCS theory.
Van der Waals force (J.D. van der Waals): The forces responsible for non-ideal behavior of gases, and for lattice energy of molecular crystals. There are three main causes: dipole-dipole interaction; dipole-induced dipole moments; and dispersion a for
