AS Level Physics: Terms & Definitions:- Measurement Random errors are errors of measurements that result in a scatter of readings about a mean value. Systematic errors are errors of measurement which occur according to some fixed patterns such that they consistently give out an over-estimation or under-estimation of the true value. Accuracy is a measure of how close the results of an experiment agree with the true value. Precision is a measure of how close the results of an experiment

Since the birth of Physical Review Letters fifty years ago‚ condensed matter physics has seen considerable growth‚ and both the journal and the field have flourished during this period. In this essay‚ I begin with some general comments about condensed matter physics and then give some personal views on the conceptual development of the field and list some highlights. The focus is mostly on theoretical developments. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.101.250001 PACS numbers: 01.30.−y The transistor

Most of the time will be spent understanding the transforming of energy. c. Energy can be transformed by applying a mechanical force. d. The law of conservation of energy‚ energy is neither created nor destroyed‚ is consider by scientists to be the most important law of nature. 2. Systems

Microwaves are detected with piezoelectric crystals. Visible light is detected by photoelectric cells. 4. explain that the relationship between the intensity of electromagnetic radiation and distance from a source is an example of the inverse square law: I d12 Electromagnetic radiation attenuates over distance‚ i.e. the further you are away from an electromagnetic source the less the intensity will be. This can be applied to light‚ as if you move away from a light it will be less bright. The Intensity

Chapter 9 Answers: 1. Consideration consists of mutual exchange of gains and losses between contracting parties. In the exchange‚ a gain by the offer is at the same time a loss to the offeror. The legal term used to designate the gain that each party experiences is that party ’s legal benefit. Consideration has three characteristics 1) The agreement must involve a bargained-for exchange; 2)the contract must involve adequate consideration; and 3) the benefits and detriments promised must themselves

Physics can be related to sports and fitness on many different levels. When you lift weights‚ play sports or even buy athletic equipment you probably don’t know how much physics was really put into any of it. Weightlifter’s need to know which workout is better. Also the equipment athletes use relate to physics. Manufactures design equipment for athletes‚ which involve physics. The manufactures need to think about what will make the object better and what materials will cause the equipment
