  2. Charged current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charged_current

    Because exchange of W bosons involves a transfer of electric charge (as well as a transfer of weak isospin, while weak hypercharge is not transferred), it is known as "charged current". By contrast, exchanges of Z bosons involve no transfer of electrical charge, so it is referred to as a "neutral current". In the latter case, the word "current ...

  3. Method of image charges - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_image_charges

    Diagram illustrating the image method for Laplace's equation for a sphere of radius R. The green point is a charge q lying inside the sphere at a distance p from the origin, the red point is the image of that point, having charge −qR/p, lying outside the sphere at a distance of R 2 /p from the origin. The potential produced by the two charges ...

  4. Electroscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroscope

    This allows one to tell at a glance whether the pith balls are charged. If one of the pith balls is touched to a charged object, charging it, the second one will be attracted and touch it, communicating some of the charge to the surface of the second ball. Now both balls have the same polarity charge, so they repel each other.

  5. Mathematical formulation of the Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_formulation...

    The pattern of weak isospin T 3, weak hypercharge Y W, and color charge of all known elementary particles, rotated by the weak mixing angle to show electric charge Q, roughly along the vertical. The neutral Higgs field (gray square) breaks the electroweak symmetry and interacts with other particles to give them mass.

  6. Tafel equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tafel_equation

    Tafel plot for an anodic process (). The Tafel equation is an equation in electrochemical kinetics relating the rate of an electrochemical reaction to the overpotential. [1] The Tafel equation was first deduced experimentally and was later shown to have a theoretical justification.

  7. Electric potential energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_potential_energy

    The electrostatic potential energy, U E, of one point charge q at position r in the presence of a point charge Q, taking an infinite separation between the charges as the reference position, is: U E ( r ) = 1 4 π ε 0 q Q r {\displaystyle U_{E}(\mathbf {r} )={\frac {1}{4\pi \varepsilon _{0}}}{\frac {qQ}{r}}}

  8. Pylorus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pylorus

    The pylorus (/ p aɪ ˈ l ɔːr ə s / or / p ɪ ˈ l oʊ r ə s /) connects the stomach to the duodenum. The pylorus is considered as having two parts, the pyloric antrum (opening to the body of the stomach) and the pyloric canal (opening to the duodenum). The pyloric canal ends as the pyloric orifice, which

  9. Oil drop experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_drop_experiment

    Millikan and Fletcher's experiment involved measuring the force on oil droplets in a glass chamber sandwiched between two electrodes, one above and one below. With the electrical field calculated, they could measure the droplet's charge, the charge on a single electron being (−1.592 × 10 −19 C).
