  2. Newton's law of universal gravitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_universal...

    Newton's law of gravitation resembles Coulomb's law of electrical forces, which is used to calculate the magnitude of the electrical force arising between two charged bodies. Both are inverse-square laws , where force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the bodies.

  3. Inverse-square law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse-square_law

    Gravitation is the attraction between objects that have mass. Newton's law states: The gravitational attraction force between two point masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their separation distance. The force is always attractive and acts along the line joining them.

  4. Kepler's laws of planetary motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kepler's_laws_of_planetary...

    Kepler's third law states that: The ratio of the square of an object's orbital period with the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit is the same for all objects orbiting the same primary. This captures the relationship between the distance of planets from the Sun, and their orbital periods.

  5. Electromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetism

    Electromagnetic forces occur between any two charged particles. Electric forces cause an attraction between particles with opposite charges and repulsion between particles with the same charge, while magnetism is an interaction that occurs between charged particles in relative motion. These two forces are described in terms of electromagnetic ...

  6. Equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_state

    At present, there is no single equation of state that accurately predicts the properties of all substances under all conditions. An example of an equation of state correlates densities of gases and liquids to temperatures and pressures, known as the ideal gas law, which is roughly accurate for weakly polar gases at low pressures and moderate temperatures.

  7. Law of attraction (New Thought) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_attraction_(New...

    The law of attraction is the New Thought spiritual belief that positive or negative thoughts bring positive or negative experiences into a person's life. [1] [2] The belief is based on the idea that people and their thoughts are made from "pure energy" and that like energy can attract like energy, thereby allowing people to improve their health, wealth, or personal relationships.

  8. Alternative stable state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_stable_state

    The stable state landscape is changed by environmental drivers, which may result in a change in the quantity of stable states and the relationship between states. By the ecosystem perspective, the landscape of the ecological states is changed, which forces a change in the ecosystem state.
