Alexander the Great‚ Aristotle was a genius Greek philosopher and scientist of the ancient age. Born on 384 BC‚ Aristotle was a biologist‚ a zoologist‚ ethicist‚ a political scientist and the master of rhetoric and logic. He also gave theories in physics and meta physics. Aristotle gained knowledge in different fields with his expansive mind and prodigious writings. However‚ only a fraction of his writings are preserved at present. Aristotle made collections to the plant and animal specimens and classified

There have been a vast majority of people to have changed the world of physics to the world of physics we know and understand today. The people I am choosing to explain are Albert Einstein‚ Otto Frisch‚ Arthur Compton‚ Enrico Fermi‚ Lise Meitner‚ Ernst Marsden‚ and Hans Geiger. All of these physicists impacted the development of the atomic theory one way or another. Albert Einstein was a German physicist who moved to America to share his knowledge about the atomic theory. In 1905‚ he wrote a famous

UNDESPICABLE MECHANICS Hmmmmp. I really don’t like Physics. I don’t want to learn it. It’s so DESPICABLE! When I grow up. I want to be a Physicist. I think Physics is exciting! How about you? UNDESPICABLE MECHANICS Physics is not DESPICABLE! It’s actually exciting. Let’s help Gru understand more about Physics. UNDESPICABLE MECHANICS Yeah yeah! We will help! Come on‚ Gru! We will prove to you that Physics is exciting. Let’s start with UNDESPICABLE MECHANICS

distinguished scientist who viewed the world from a different perspective and he played an invaluable role developing many of the sciences of the contemporary world. He focused his entire career studying complicated topics such as math‚ alchemy‚ optics‚ and physics. After centuries of studying his life and work‚ some even speculate that Newton was searching for a series of principles that he believed to define the universe (Aughton 136). While he may have never found the set of principles that he believed to

For the foundation for modern physics‚ it helped lead onto other modern physics discoveries such as Photons‚ Bose-Einstein Condensate‚ and the Atomic Bomb. Life without this knowledge is like a life without living. As you can see‚ without Einstein’s discoveries‚ loads of other pieces of modern physics would not have been found. And finally‚ how did he die? Albert Einstein died from a ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

Ernst Ludwig Planck was born in Kiel‚ Germany. He was the sixth child of a law professor at the University of Kiel. At the age of nine his interest in physics and mathematics was developed by his teacher Hermann Muller. When he graduated at the age of seventeen he decided to choose physics over music for his career. Although he is know for physics he was an exceptional pianist who had acquired the gift of being able to hear absolute pitch. His favorite works of music were known to be Schubert and

challenges‚ based on the mechanisms of biology and the principles of physics. Biology studies our life‚ its variety and complexity and physics looks for mathematical laws of nature and makes predictions about the forces that drive idealized systems. The main challenge of Biophysics is to span the distance between the complexity of life and the simplicity of physical laws. In other words biophysics acts as a bridge between biology and physics. Biophysicists’ main job is to study life at each and every level

Bohr and Albert Einstein are names anyone who has taken a basic physics course is familiar with. Posters of Albert Einstein can be easily encountered hanging on walls‚ with quotes that often do not contemplate any scientific content. These scientists are two of the most influential personalities of modern physics‚ although little is talked about the respectful rivalry that took place between the two over nearly 30 years regarding physics’ most revolutionary branch of quantum mechanics. In his essay

mystical side of quantum physics that stretches credulity and suggests "mind" as a component of the material universe. Matter emerges from nowhere and disappears again. Subatomic particles can ’t both be and be known to be. Matter shifts from existing to only having the potential to exist. Our human acts affect what is true at the quantum level. The act of measurement distorts what ’s being measured. Human consciousness itself seeps into the discussion of quantum physics. Consciousness‚ mind‚

Isaac Newton was one of the most influential people of the Scientific Revolution. His ideas are framework for modern physics and forever changed what science is and how it’s conducted. Newton believed that all natural philosophy and phenomena could be explained by science and he set out to do just that throughout his life. He did research in optics‚ created the theory of universal gravity‚ wrote the three laws of motion‚ invented calculus and he was even able to calculate the shape of the earth.
