matching. 1. Introduction All of us have the ability to move. Knowing how to describe motion is an important first step in understanding the underlying physics that governs changes in motion. We see changes in motion all the time‚ as we go to work or school‚ participate in sports or even wander around our homes. If we never changed our own motion‚ we would never make it out of bed in the morning. The study of motion and of physical concepts such as force and mass is called Dynamics. Kinematics

Physics (from Greek φυσική (ἐπιστήμη)‚ i.e. "knowledge of nature"‚ from φύσις‚ physis‚ i.e. "nature"[1][2][3][4][5]) is the natural science that involves the study of matter[6] and its motion through space and time‚ along with related concepts such as energy and force.[7] More broadly‚ it is the general analysis of nature‚ conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves.[8][9][10] Physics is one of the oldest academic disciplines‚ perhaps the oldest through its inclusion of astronomy

information about the spacing and location of the elements in the diffraction grating that produced them. Conversely‚ if we know the structure of the grating‚ we can deduce properties about the incident light‚ in particular its wavelength. This will be our task‚ in this first optics lab exercise. The analysis of diffraction patterns is used extensively in the sciences to provide information about the microscopic structure of molecules‚ atoms‚ and nuclei. In addition to various forms of light (gamma rays

How Does Technology Influence Our Daily Lives The tеrm „ technology“ has been defined by the ancient Greeks as a collective term of human achievements‚ inventions‚ creations‚ knоwledge and expertise. Without a doubt‚ technology dramatically affects our lives in virtually each and every aspect and area. One of the greatest and most heated contemporary debates has been: „Does technology influence our lives in a positive or negative way?“ In my opinion‚ technology by itself has neither positive

3. What can you say about the results of the theoretical value of "g" to the experimental value of "g"? is your experiment successful or not? explain your answer. The theoretical value of "g" has a big different in the experimental value of "g". Our experiment is successful because we accomplished the objective of this experiment. 4. What conclusion can you draw from the experiment. The

Not only have vehicles changed‚ but the means by which people can get themselves to and from different locations has changed as well. Maps and compasses now take a backseat to the Global Positioning System (GPS). Access to the GPS is now very widespread; 24 satellites above our atmosphere are used to send and receive information in order to accurately determine locations of
