sense of the term‚ with the goal of giving objective views on software related objects and phenomena. The well known problem of software development is that there is very little scientific foundation to the subject. Electrical engineers can use physics as the foundation of their activities. As a result the measures they use in their daily work‚ such as Volt and Ampere‚ correspond to well defined phenomena (electric potential‚ electric current)‚ and satisfy the rules and properties defined by

Diffraction refers to various phenomena which occur when a wave encounters an obstacle. In classical physics‚ the diffraction phenomenon is described as the apparent bending of waves around small obstacles and the spreading out of waves past small openings. Similar effects occur when a light wave travels through a medium with a varying refractive index‚ or a sound wave travels through one with varying acoustic impedance. Diffraction occurs with all waves‚ including sound waves‚ water waves‚ and electromagnetic

did not believe he could do well‚ though they gave him the nickname of Einstein. College Life Hawking’s father who was a doctor‚ wanted him to study medicine at Oxford. However‚ he was more interested in Mathematics. It turned out that he studied Physics‚ as the University College did not provide degree studies in Mathematics. Hawking was awarded a first class honors degree in Natural Science after 3 years of studies‚ without doing much work‚ as he described in his auto-biography. At the age of 20

It is central to most of science and technology‚ blending at one extreme into physics‚ mathematics and engineering and at the other into the earth and life sciences. Chemists are employed in industries which provide us with food‚ energy‚ consumer goods‚ in regulatory bodies that protect our health and environment and in research institutions

The realm of light In the essay "Light‚ Our One Absolute” by Hugh Kenner‚ the topic of discussion is the commemoration of Albert Einstein and his Theory of Relativity. The author seems infatuated with light and its properties. In fact‚ it seems that he thinks that before the world was created there was the notion of just light. After this fact‚ he divulges into a story about the child Einstein which is the inspiration behind why Einstein might have done what he did. Young

The Law of Attraction proves to be the most powerful law in the universe‚ as is shown through the study of quantum physics and the relationship between the flow of energy into and out of the body. If humans learn to manifest the energies of the universe and one’s own being in a proper manner‚ we will be able to accomplish everything our hearts desire‚ according to the

When Gustav Robert Kirchhoff’s banker questioned the financial unreliability that would result from Mr. Kirchhoff investing his hard-earned gold in Fraunhofer lines‚ Kirchhoff handed him the medal he had earned from his research and replied “Look here‚ I have succeeded at last in fetching some gold from the sun.” Despite how phenomenally sassy this quote makes him appear‚ Kirchhoff lived a quiet life (aside from his incredible scientific contributions‚ of course). Gustav Robert Kirchhoff was born

In a world where people are ignorant to the things around them. Where there are micro beings living everywhere and inhabiting every crevice there is. These beings are known as atoms. These atoms create matter and the matter creates the world around. Throughout the years‚ individuals have been researching about the atom and the properties it holds. By researching about the atom‚ it has involved and formed many theories. There were many physicians who were significant people that contributed to the

Allan Rex Sandage was an American observational cosmologist‚ who seen as one of the most influential astronomers of the 20th century. He rightfully earned the nicknames “Mr. Cosmology” and the “Super Hubble”‚ as continued and refined the work of Edwin Hubble and made many discoveries of his own along they way‚ including discovering the first quasar and producing the first reasonable estimate for the Hubble Constant (h0). Throughout his career‚ some of Sandage’s notable awards include the Helen B
