    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quizlet

    Quizlet made its first acquisition in March 2021, with the purchase of Slader, which offered detailed explanations of textbook concepts and practice problems, and eventually incorporated it into its paid platform, Quizlet Plus. [20] [21] [22] In November 2022, Quizlet announced a new CEO, Lex Bayer, the former CEO of Starship Technologies. [23]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torricelli's_experiment

    Torricelli's experiment was invented in Pisa in 1643 by the Italian scientist Evangelista Torricelli (1608-1647). The purpose of his experiment is to prove that the source of "horror of the vacuum" by nature comes from atmospheric pressure .

    This timeline lists significant discoveries in physics and the laws of nature, including experimental discoveries, theoretical proposals that were confirmed experimentally, and theories that have significantly influenced current thinking in modern physics. Such discoveries are often a multi-step, multi-person process.

  7. Thematic transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thematic_transformation

    Thematic transformation (also known as thematic metamorphosis or thematic development) is a musical technique in which a leitmotif, or theme, is developed by changing the theme by using permutation (transposition or modulation, inversion, and retrograde), augmentation, diminution, and fragmentation.

  9. History of centrifugal and centripetal forces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_centrifugal_and...

    The modern view is that centrifugal force is indeed an indicator of rotation, but relative to those frames of reference that exhibit the simplest laws of physics. [19] Thus, for example, if we wonder how rapidly our galaxy is rotating, we can make a model of the galaxy in which its rotation plays a part.
