    R2-D2 (/ ˌ ɑːr. t uː ˈ d iː t uː /) or Artoo-Detoo [1] is a fictional robot character in the Star Wars franchise created by George Lucas.He has appeared in ten of the eleven theatrical Star Wars films to date, including every film in the "Skywalker Saga", which includes the original trilogy, the prequel trilogy and the sequel trilogy.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse-square_law

    S represents the light source, while r represents the measured points. The lines represent the flux emanating from the sources and fluxes. The total number of flux lines depends on the strength of the light source and is constant with increasing distance, where a greater density of flux lines (lines per unit area) means a stronger energy field.

  6. Gravitational constant - Wikipedia

    The Schiehallion experiment, proposed in 1772 and completed in 1776, was the first successful measurement of the mean density of the Earth, and thus indirectly of the gravitational constant. The result reported by Charles Hutton (1778) suggested a density of 4.5 g/cm 3 ( ⁠4 + 1 / 2 ⁠ times the density of water), about 20% below the modern ...

    A branch of physics that studies atoms as isolated systems of electrons and an atomic nucleus. Compare nuclear physics. atomic structure atomic weight (A) The sum total of protons (or electrons) and neutrons within an atom. audio frequency A periodic vibration whose frequency is in the band audible to the average human, the human hearing range.

    In other words, the laws of physics will be the same whether you are testing them in a frame 'at rest', or a frame moving with a constant velocity relative to the 'rest' frame. The speed of light in a perfect classical vacuum ( c 0 {\displaystyle c_{0}} ) is measured to be the same by all observers in inertial frames and is, moreover, finite ...
