  2. Reaction (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_(physics)

    The forces on ball and player are both explained by their nearness, which results in a pair of contact forces (ultimately due to electric repulsion). That this nearness is caused by a decision of the player has no bearing on the physical analysis. As far as the physics is concerned, the labels 'action' and 'reaction' can be flipped. [4]

  3. Stark effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stark_effect

    The discovery of this effect contributed importantly to the development of quantum theory and Stark was awarded with the Nobel Prize in Physics in the year 1919. Inspired by the magnetic Zeeman effect , and especially by Hendrik Lorentz 's explanation of it, Woldemar Voigt [ 2 ] performed classical mechanical calculations of quasi-elastically ...

  4. Wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave

    For example, sound waves are variations of the local pressure and particle motion that propagate through the medium. Other examples of mechanical waves are seismic waves, gravity waves, surface waves and string vibrations.

  5. Force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force

    The normal force, for example, is responsible for the structural integrity of tables and floors as well as being the force that responds whenever an external force pushes on a solid object. An example of the normal force in action is the impact force on an object crashing into an immobile surface. [4]: ch.12 [5]

  7. Spontaneous symmetry breaking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_symmetry_breaking

    Spontaneous symmetry breaking illustrated: At high energy levels (left), the ball settles in the center, and the result is symmetric.At lower energy levels (right), the overall "rules" remain symmetric, but the symmetric "sombrero" enforces an asymmetric outcome, since eventually the ball must rest at some random spot on the bottom, "spontaneously", and not all others.

  8. Relativistic mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativistic_mechanics

    In physics, relativistic mechanics refers to mechanics compatible with special relativity (SR) and general relativity (GR). It provides a non-quantum mechanical description of a system of particles, or of a fluid, in cases where the velocities of moving objects are comparable to the speed of light c.

  9. Freezing-point depression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing-point_depression

    In the above equation, T F is the normal freezing point of the pure solvent (273 K for water, for example); a liq is the activity of the solvent in the solution (water activity for aqueous solution); ΔH fus T F is the enthalpy change of fusion of the pure solvent at T F, which is 333.6 J/g for water at 273 K; ΔC fus p is the difference ...
