The theory of relativity came from Einstein’s search for a general law of nature that would explain a problem that had occurred to him when he was sixteen. "No matter what speed the observer is moving at‚ he must always observe the same velocity of light‚ also that if an observer at rest and an observer moving at constant speed carry out the same kind of experiment‚ they must get the same result"(Albert Einstein Biography). By using the theory‚ he changed the way how people only believed in Newton’s

street was crowded with cars‚ vans‚ busses and even motorcycle waiting to pick up the children after school. They parked haphazardly along the street make it difficult for people to cross the street. Other vehicles were speeding along even there was speed limit sign. Suddenly‚ I saw a young boy who was running quickly without looking to the left or to the right to cross the street. The vehicles honked mercilessly on the street. Unfortunately‚ a motorcycle hit the unlucky young boy. The boy was flung

we petition the Louisiana State Department of Transportation to put a timed red light at this intersection. An alternate‚ but still effective means of traffic control would be to put in a four way stop at this intersection. Finally‚ a reduction of speed limited around the intersection to about twenty or thirty miles per hour would reduce the chance for serve traffic accidents‚ according to the statistics. The first proposal I make to improve this intersection for the community is to have a red light

Special Theory of Relativity means a physical theory of relativity based on the assumption that the speed of light in a vacuum is a constant and the assumption that the laws of physics are invariant in all inertial systems. Albert Einstein created many different experiments one being where Mrs. Einstein is standing in a field and Mr. Einstein is standing

field is also changing in time. Maxwell used these equations to calculate and properties and behaviours of what was now known as the electromagnetic spectrum. From the theorised properties of the electromagnetic spectrum‚ Maxwell also predicted the speed of light and its relation to the electromagnetic spectrum. However‚ as light was concluded as a wave it was presumed light required a medium to be

Physics HSC Notes Space 1. Earth has a gravitational field that exerts a force on objects both on it and around it. K1 Define weight as the force on an object due to a gravitational field. Mass is the amount of matter within an object‚ measured in kg Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object’s mass measured in newtons (N). Weight is a force thus a vector quantity. K2 Explain that a change in gravitational potential
