  2. Bragg's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg's_law

    where m is the Bragg order (a positive integer), λ B the diffracted wavelength, Λ the fringe spacing of the grating, θ the angle between the incident beam and the normal (N) of the entrance surface and φ the angle between the normal and the grating vector (K G). Radiation that does not match Bragg's law will pass through the VBG undiffracted.

  3. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    Newton's laws are often stated in terms of point or particle masses, that is, bodies whose volume is negligible. This is a reasonable approximation for real bodies when the motion of internal parts can be neglected, and when the separation between bodies is much larger than the size of each.

  4. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.

  5. Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophiæ_Naturalis...

    Book 1, subtitled De motu corporum (On the motion of bodies) concerns motion in the absence of any resisting medium. It opens with a collection of mathematical lemmas on "the method of first and last ratios", [20] a geometrical form of infinitesimal calculus. [10] Newton's proof of Kepler's second law, as described in the book.

  6. Glossary of physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_physics

    A chemical law which states that the volume of a given mass of a gas at constant temperature is inversely proportional to its pressure. Bra–ket notation Bragg's law bremsstrahlung Radiation emitted by the acceleration of unbound charged particles. Brewster's angle. Also called the polarization angle.

  7. Newton's law of universal gravitation - Wikipedia

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

    By 1680, new values for the diameter of the Earth improved his orbit time to within 1.6%, but more importantly Newton had found a proof of his earlier conjecture. [8]: 201 In 1687 Newton published his Principia which combined his laws of motion with new mathematical analysis to explain Kepler's empirical results.

  9. Classical central-force problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_central-force...

    In classical mechanics, the central-force problem is to determine the motion of a particle in a single central potential field.A central force is a force (possibly negative) that points from the particle directly towards a fixed point in space, the center, and whose magnitude only depends on the distance of the object to the center.
