THE APPLICATION OF CALCULUS IN PHYSICS A BREIF HISTORY ABOUT PHYSICS The word physics is formulated from an Ancient Greek word φύσις physis meaning "nature”. Physics is a central division of science that is driven out by the study of philosophy and nature .Physics can also be defined as the study of nature, mater and its behaviour and motion through space and time, due to energy and force. Physics is very broad and can be divided in many branches like chemistry, astronomy, biology and life science
We are surrounded by physics all the time and we don’t realize we are using it every day. The word “physics” comes from the Greek “knowledge of nature” and the field can analyze and understand the natural phenomena of the universe. Physics is the scientific study of matter and energy and how they interact with each other. This energy can take the form of motion, light, electricity, gravity and so on and with this information it uses scientific methods to test hypotheses based on observation. It deals
Physics is one of the most important parts of the science as its principles are matter, force, energy, and motion. Whatever we do, there is physics involved. I thought there were uncountable things to write about physics. I realized I should write about the most used principle of physics and the activities. One of the most used principles in our daily life is gravity, we wouldn’t be able to walk, stand, etc., without gravity, which is one of the essential principles of physics. We use the principle
I am a prospective graduate student with keen interest in various fields of physics. My research interests lie primarily in the area of material science and engineering. I am particularly interested to explore sustainable energy applications of Nanoscience and technology. I would not say I had such a clear conviction of where my interest lie right from the beginning of my undergraduate studies. Since my school days, sports and extracurricular activities are a vital part of my life. I have participated
Schrödinger known as the father of quantum physics, Schrödinger is an Austrian physicist who ignited the debate on quantum physics. In the early 19th century, Schrödinger created a new theory of quantum physics which began the debate. In the late 19th century he created his wave mechanics to prove his theory was correct. This essay will seek to cover Erwin Schrödinger’s early life which leads him to a major discovery, such as the creation of quantum physics theory, the invention of wave mechanics and
This letter references to a great mathematician, astronomer and physicist called Isaac Newton. Newton is considered as the most original and influential theorist in the history of science. He is regarded to be the father of Classical Physics because he formulated the laws of motion and the theory of gravity .He invested a new theory of light and color and he was the original discoverer of the infinitesimal calculus. Isaac Newton was born on December 25, 1642 in Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England
Thermodynamics: Thermal physics By:Guled Elmi Teacher: Mr.Ali Kammar 1.1 Introduction to Thermodynamics: Thermodynamics is the branch of physical science that deals with the relations between heat and other forms of energy (such as mechanical, electrical, or chemical energy), and, by extension, of the relationships between all forms of energy. The first law states maintain energy: energy can be stored in the system
Nuclear physics is the study of the relationship between the nuclei of atoms. For nuclear physics to be applied in real life situations, radioisotopes are often used. These are isotopes that have an unstable protons to neutrons ratio that causes them to spontaneously undergo radioactive decay. They do this in order to change their amount of protons and neutrons and become a stable isotope of the same or a different element. To do this, they can either go through alpha decay or beta decay and depending

My interest in physics stems from an innate curiosity to know more about the working of the universe. The exercise of discovering the laws of nature is a highly uplifting and almost a spiritual experience. The fundamental questions of space, time and gravity are some of the most important and challenging problems that we face today. I would like to spend my life gaining a better understanding of some of these most crucial concepts. Aside from my interest in physics, I also have a sense of
Every moment, our lives, our world and even our universe are governed by laws of physics-the explanations to all natural phenomena. One of the most brilliant physicists in the history of mankind, Albert Einstein, made great contributions to the development of theory of relativity and quantum physics. Despite of his profound excellence, Einstein was proven wrong of so-called “quantum entanglement”. He strongly denied its possibility as he once described it as “spooky action at a distance .” Even in
My interest in physics and astronomy began in my childhood years, but there were some moments which had enormous impacts in this predilection. It all started when I was in the first year of middle school. I was watching a TV program called 'Night Sky', which had invited an astrophysicist to explain to the general audience about astronomy and cosmology projects, history of them and their results and impacts on our perception of the universe. He mainly talked about 'Cosmic Background Explorer' (COBE)
EXPERIMENT 1: MEASUREMENT AND ERRORS INTRODUCTION Observations for physics experiment can be made qualitatively and quantitatively. Qualitative observation is typically descriptive figures and the information is not in mathematical form. While, quantitative observation is based on mathematical figure. Due to that, qualitative observation is imprecise and harder to analyze than quantitative data. Physics is the study, where mathematical equations can be use to express the fundamental laws of nature
Erinosho (2013) submitted that physics is taught by teachers who specialize in sciences other than physics because,in Nigerian universities, Physics Departments and Science Education Departments physicsprogramme continue to witness shortfall of students, the result of which is serious insufficiency of physics teachers in secondary schools. This is a dominion effect: more students will have aversion to physics and this subsequently leads to poor performance of students in physics and consequently insufficiency
RELATION BETWEEN PHYSICS AND SPORTS Introduction: When people think about sports and athletics, the subject of physics doesn’t always comes to their mind. But the influence of physics is found in every aspect of the sport. Physics is simple as a bouncing of a ball or complex as a roller coaster. Each single movement in a sport contains a great deal of physics. Every sport consumes multiple of physics principles. There can’t be any sport played without physics. Physics has a vital role in
CTL Method For Physics Physics is one of the subjects taught at senior high school level (SMA). Physics is a subject that can foster students' thinking ability that is useful for solving problems in everyday life. Physics is also a part of science that studies the phenomena and natural phenomena of inanimate objects in an empirical, logical, systematic, and rational manner involving scientific processes and attitudes. In the process of physics learning emphasizes on providing direct experience to
Physics in Football Someone might think that throwing a football only involves a person’s strength. Throwing a football seems like it is a very simple action, but in reality it is very complex. A football has pointed ends to help it cut through the air. When you are throwing a football you adjust how hard you throw it based on how fast the wind is blowing or how far away your target is. You think of these things without even noticing, these things are physics. When a football is in the air
Hydraulics is a branch of science with the applications of fluid usually liquids in motion. Hydraulics deals with matters such as flow of liquid in pipes, rivers, and channels and their confinement by dams and tanks. Liquids in motion or pressure did useful work for man before Blaise Pascal and Daniel Bernoulli formulated laws for hydraulic-power technology. Pascalś law which was created in 1650 states that pressure in a liquid is transmitted equally in all directions. In the hydraulic press Pascal's
Physics as a science the basis is one of the teaching materials in the school that play a role important in the development of science and technology. This matter because the teaching of physics in school aims to prepare studenuts to be able to cope with the ever-evolving life through practice acting on the basis of logical, rational, critical, efficient, and effective thinking. But the fact that happens, generally less interested students to learn physics because one of the subjects
The diagnosis of medical problems would be challenging without the use of physics in the medical field today. Medical imaging has benefited greatly from the use of physics. One great and famous example is the invention of ultrasounds. .Sound is caused by tiny, fast movements known as vibrations, and it travels in waves from its source to a specified receiver. These sound vibrations can vary in size, which is amplitude, and in rate, which is frequency. The larger the amplitude the louder the sound
