Tunnel through the Earth
Drop a ball through a tunnel drilled straight through Earth. It won’t fall forever—it’ll oscillate back and forth, popping out on the other side in exactly 42 minutes. Every. Single.…
Physics
Physics is one of the disciplines of natural sciences which deals with the study of the basic laws of nature and their manifestation in various natural phenomena.
Physicists attempt to explain several diverse natural phenomena in terms of certain scientific laws and concepts.
Statistical Physics: Ensembles
Ensembles in Chemical Sciences and Statistical Physics are a collection of a number of macroscopically identical but essentially independent systems. The System, here, is defined by the collection of a…
Fox-Rabbit Chase Problem [Solution & Math Proof]
Pursuit problems are some of the most elegant challenges in classical mechanics. Two objects moving, one chasing, the other evading. The math gets surprisingly deep. This problem comes from David…
Jablonski Diagram – Consequences of Light Absorption
When a molecule absorbs light, something has to happen to that energy. It doesn’t just disappear. The molecule can use it for a chemical reaction. It can release it as…
Un-Popular circumstances connected with Most Popular, Theory of Relativity
Henry Poincaré was trying to save the Old classical theory of Physics by Suitable Adjustments & Modifications in it. When the experiments, like Michelson Morley Experiment, in search of the…
Cosmic Radiation & Cosmic Ray Showers: Complete Guide
Wondering what Cosmic Radiation & Cosmic Ray Showers are and how these are formed? If you are, you are at the perfect place. Cosmic radiation and cosmic ray showers are…
Rayleigh-Jeans Law & The Ultraviolet Catastrophe
Lord Rayleigh made an attempt to explain the energy distribution in black body radiation, which was completed by Jeans in 1900. The results obtained by then are known as Rayleigh-Jeans’…
Wein’s Formula & Wein’s Laws
The problem of energy distribution in black body radiation stumped physicists for years. German physicist Max Planck finally cracked it. But he didn’t work in a vacuum. Before Planck, Wilhelm…
It’s a Mystery! – Simulacrum in Eagle Nebula
This is one of the top mysteries of universe.
Introduction to the Universe
Stars The universe is vast and amazing. There are many millions of trillions of stars in the sky, most of them being bigger than our sun. Stars account for 98%…
Radioactive Pollution
The environment is contaminated in numerous ways. Plastic on the land, sewage in the water, carbon in the air. But not every substance is radioactive and not every pollution is…
