Physics (from Ancient Greek: φυσική (ἐπιστήμη) phusikḗ (epistḗmē) “knowledge of nature”‚ from φύσις phúsis "nature"[1][2][3]) is the natural science that involves the study of matter[4] and its motion through space and time‚ along with related concepts such as energy and force.[5] More broadly‚ it is the general analysis of nature‚ conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves.[a][6][7] Physics is one of the oldest academic disciplines‚ perhaps the oldest through its inclusion of astronomy

Purpose: This experiment is used to perform a series of synthesis reactions that convert aluminum foil to alum. Alum is used in cooking‚ to treat wastewater‚ and is used in common deodorant. In this lab a series of four reactions will occur to yield alum. Calculations: Aluminum foil: 0.5035 grams Alum & Watch Glass: 21.7691 grams Watch Glass: 15.1560 grams Alum: 6.6131 gram Theoretical Yield of Alum: 2Al(s) + 2KOH(aq) + 4H2SO4 + 22H20 -> 3H2(g) + 2KAl(SO4)2 + 12H2O(s) 0.5035gAl

Physics Formulas: Mechanics Mechanics is the oldest branch of physics. Mechanics deals with all kinds and complexities of motion. It includes various techniques‚ which can simplify the solution of a mechanical problem. Here are some of the often required physics formulas falling in mechanics domain. Motion in One Dimension The physics formulas for motion in one dimension (Also called Kinematical equations of motion) are as follows. (Here ’u’ is initial velocity‚ ’v’ is final velocity‚ ’a’ is

This experiment addresses determining the yield point for a material to fail‚ so the stress in the material does not have to reach to that point. This is where understanding beam deflection

Uncertainty is the theme of the whole film " As Prof Gopnik ponders the nearness of death in all our lives‚ the tininess of any one life‚ and the vanishingly small difference between death and life‚ could it be that he is Schrödinger’s Cat‚ both alive and dead?
