The National Testing Agency (NTA), the examination organizer, clarified that the higher number of top scorers was due to 44 of the 67 students answering a physics question incorrectly but still being awarded marks because of a mistake in the NCERT book.
The poem Sabse Khatarnak by the Hindi poet Pash was included in the NCERT textbook for 11th standard Hindi students in 2006. In 2017, the BJP government affiliated RSS tried to remove it but failed. [25] [26] The NCERT made two controversial changes to the class XII political science textbook ‘Politics in India Since Independence’ in 2017.
[10] [11] Moreover, words which are synonymous in everyday speech are not so in physics: force is not the same as power or pressure, for example, and mass has a different meaning than weight. [12] [13]: 150 The physics concept of force makes quantitative the everyday idea of a push or a pull. Forces in Newtonian mechanics are often due to ...
The following is a list of notable unsolved problems grouped into broad areas of physics. [1]Some of the major unsolved problems in physics are theoretical, meaning that existing theories seem incapable of explaining a certain observed phenomenon or experimental result.
Physics – branch of science that studies matter [9] and its motion through space and time, along with related concepts such as energy and force. [10] Physics is one of the "fundamental sciences" because the other natural sciences (like biology, geology etc.) deal with systems that seem to obey the laws of physics. According to physics, the ...
2008 – 16-year study of stellar orbits around Sagittarius A* provides strong evidence for a supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way galaxy; 2009 – Planck begins observations of cosmic microwave background; 2012 – Higgs boson found by the Compact Muon Solenoid [12] and ATLAS [13] experiments at the Large Hadron Collider
The Feynman Lectures on Physics is a physics textbook based on a great number of lectures by Richard Feynman, a Nobel laureate who has sometimes been called "The Great Explainer". [1] The lectures were presented before undergraduate students at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), during 1961–1964.
The theory transformed theoretical physics and astronomy during the 20th century, superseding a 200-year-old theory of mechanics created primarily by Isaac Newton. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] It introduced concepts including 4- dimensional spacetime as a unified entity of space and time , relativity of simultaneity , kinematic and gravitational time ...
