Physics Laboratory Report Sample PHY 223 Lab Report Newton’s Second Law Your Name: Partner’s Full Name(s): Date Performed: Date Due: Date submitted: Lab Section: (number) Instructor: (Name) Introduction We verified Newton’s Second Law for one-dimensional motion by timing an accelerated glider moving along a flat track. We varied both the accelerating force and the mass of the glider. We found that for a given force the acceleration of the glider was inversely proportional to the mass of the glider

important scientists to ever live. Despite the fact Einstein disliked school‚ he had a deep passion for mathematics and an orderly universe which led to his many revolutionary theories‚ one of which changed physics forever; all of his hard work led to many awards and the evolution of theoretical physics. Einstein disliked school‚ but had an attraction to mathematics and enjoyed the idea of an orderly universe. As a kid

It is this ability and the freedom to explore my own identity and intellectual pursuits that draw me closer and closer to the unique educational and social experiences offered at UChicago. Only at UChicago will I be able to simultaneously experience such a remarkable student body and a world-renowned physics department. With world-renowned faculty‚ an incredible

Do you know about any scientist that have discovered the domain of nuclear science? Well I don’t think you have so I am going to tell you about him. The man I am talking to you about today is the man that did a great job showing proof of what he discovered is true and that it is real. This man was an over achiever‚ as you know everyone have their ups and downs. He had multiple obstacles in his life‚ but was able to get over them to reach his goals. This man was one of many scientists who contributed

Albert einstein ‚which explain the relationship between energy (E)and mass(m)‚c is represented constant number of light speed. E = mc2 theory of relativity theory and quantum mechanics are two basic branch of modern physics ‚ classical mechanics laid the foundation of classical physics ‚ but for high speed objects and microscopic condition of objects‚ Newton’s laws are no longer applicable. An important conclusion of the theory of relativity is talking about mass and energy. Based on the special

where he placed first in his physics class. He went on to attend the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory at the University of California‚ Berkeley and received a Ph.D. degree in 1972‚ and held a lectureship at Princeton University in 1973. During the Vietnam War‚ Kaku completed his US Army basic training at Fort Benning‚ Georgia and his advanced infantry training at Fort Lewis‚ Washington. Kaku currently holds the Henry Semat Chair and Professorship in theoretical physics and holds a joint appointment

he obtained his Ph.D. in physics in 1942 with a thesis supervised by John Wheeler. His thesis dealt with advanced waves‚ which can be described as the theory of electromagnetic waves that travel "backwards" in time. His first lecture at Princeton on the subject was interesting enough to draw an audience that included none less than Einstein‚ Pauli‚ and von Neumann. After completing his Ph.D.‚ Feynman moved to Cornell University in 1945 as professor of theoretical physics. There‚ he met Hans Bethe and

of all time and the father of modern physics. Sir Isaac Newton who produced the Newtonian mechanics influenced Einstein; this led to Einstein’s development of the special theory of relativity. This theory was later expanded to gravitational fields. Einstein is best known for his mass-energy equivalence formula E = mc2 (1)‚ this has been dubbed “the worlds most famous equation”(1). He received the Nobel Prize in Physics “for his services to theoretical physics‚ and especially for his discovery of

were not really educated‚ Ohm ’s father educated himself enough to have Ohm home schooled. His mother died when he was ten. From early childhood‚ Georg and his brother Martin‚ a well-known mathematician‚ were both taught by their father in math‚ physic‚ and chemistry. Georg Simon attended Erlangen Gymnasium from age eleven to fifteen (Unknown.) His father‚ concerned that his son was wasting the educational opportunity‚ sent Ohm to Switzerland. Then in September 1806‚ he started as a math teacher

Isaac Newton is considered to be one of the greatest theoretical and scientific minds of our world. The year that Galileo died‚ Isaac newton was born in Woolsthorpe Manor‚ his family’s estate‚ in Lincolnshire‚ England on January 4th‚ 1643 as a premature baby. Isaac was very frail and sickly. The women and housemaids didn’t even hurry to bring medicine to help him because nobody expected him to survive. But miraculously he did survive. Isaac’s father‚ Isaac Newton Sr.‚ had died few months before his
