Gravitation

Gravitation

Gravitation, or gravity, is the natural phenomenon by which physical bodies appear to attract each other with a force proportional to their masses. It is most commonly experienced as the agent that gives weight to objects with mass and causes them to fall to the ground when dropped. The phenomenon of gravitation itself, however, is … Read more

Elasticity

Elasticity

When an elastic material is deformed due to an external force, it experiences internal forces that oppose the deformation and restore it to its original state if the external force is no longer applied. There are various elastic moduli, such as Young’s modulus, the shear modulus, and the bulk modulus, all of which are measures … Read more

Vector

Vector

Vectors Euclidean vector, a geometric entity endowed with magnitude and direction as well as a positive-definite inner product; an element of a Euclidean vector space. In physics, euclidean vectors are used to represent physical quantities that have both magnitude and direction, such as force, in contrast to scalar quantities, which have no direction. Vector Vector … Read more

Ideal Gas and Kinetic Theory of Gases

Ideal Gas and Kinetic Theory of Gases 1

Ideal Gas and Kinetic Theory of Gases. We said earlier that temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of the molecules in a material, but we didn’t elaborate on that remark. Because individual molecules are so small, and because there are so many molecules in most substances, it would be impossible to study their behavior … Read more

Note of Sound Waves

Waves

In physics, a wave is a disturbance or oscillation that travels through space and matter, accompanied by a transfer of energy. Wave motion transfers energy from one point to another, often with no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium—that is, with little or no associated mass transport. They consist, instead, of oscillations or … Read more

Note of Periodic Motion

Note of Periodic Motion

Note of Periodic Motion. In mathematics, a periodic function is a function that repeats its values in regular intervals or periods. The most important examples are the trigonometric functions, which repeat over intervals of 2Ï€ radians. Periodic functions are used throughout science to describe oscillations, waves, and other phenomena that exhibit periodicity. Any function which is … Read more

Structural Properties of Matter

Structural Properties of Matter1

Matter is the Stuff around You Mixtures on Earth Matter is everything around you. Matter is anything made of atoms and molecules. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. If you are new to the idea of mass, it is the amount of stuff in an object. We talk about the difference … Read more

Math Solution of Structural Properties of Matter

Math Solution of Structural Properties of Matter

Atoms interact with one another by transferring or sharing electrons. An element is composed of a single type of atom. Bonds between atoms are created when electrons are transferred or shared.The physical properties of compounds reflect the nature of the interactions among its molecules. Solids, liquids, and gases differ in distances between molecules & atoms … Read more
