    velocity in terms of the speed of light c: unitless beta particle: gamma: Lorentz factor: unitless photon: gamma ray: shear strain: radian heat capacity ratio: unitless surface tension: newton per meter (N/m) delta: change in a variable (e.g. ) unitless Laplace operator: per square meter (m −2)

  3. Lists of physics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_physics_equations

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.

  4. Field (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_(mathematics)

    Basic theorems in analysis hinge on the structural properties of the field of real numbers. Most importantly for algebraic purposes, any field may be used as the scalars for a vector space, which is the standard general context for linear algebra. Number fields, the siblings of the field of rational numbers, are studied in depth in number theory.

  5. Elementary algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_algebra

    [1] Elementary algebra, also known as high school algebra or college algebra, [2] encompasses the basic concepts of algebra. It is often contrasted with arithmetic : arithmetic deals with specified numbers , [ 3 ] whilst algebra introduces variables (quantities without fixed values).

    The 3 core sciences namely Biology, Chemistry, and Physics will be updated for first teaching in August 2023, with first examinations in May 2025. The syllabus change was originally scheduled for 2021, though the COVID-19 pandemic caused the IB to delay the syllabus change to 2023. Details of the specific changes can be found on the IBO website.

  7. Algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra

    The term "algebra" is sometimes used in a more narrow sense to refer only to elementary algebra or only to abstract algebra. [14] When used as a countable noun, an algebra is a specific type of algebraic structure that involves a vector space equipped with a certain type of binary operation. [15]

  8. Algebraic structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_structure

    An algebraic structure in a variety may be understood as the quotient algebra of term algebra (also called "absolutely free algebra") divided by the equivalence relations generated by a set of identities. So, a collection of functions with given signatures generate a free algebra, the term algebra T.

  9. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

    Linear systems are a fundamental part of linear algebra, a subject used in most modern mathematics. Computational algorithms for finding the solutions are an important part of numerical linear algebra, and play a prominent role in engineering, physics, chemistry, computer science, and economics.
