  2. 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.

  3. List of equations in classical mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equations_in...

    [3] Classical mechanics utilises many equations—as well as other mathematical concepts—which relate various physical quantities to one another. These include differential equations, manifolds, Lie groups, and ergodic theory. [4] This article gives a summary of the most important of these.

  4. Biot–Savart law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biot–Savart_law

    The Biot–Savart law [4]: Sec 5-2-1 is used for computing the resultant magnetic flux density B at position r in 3D-space generated by a filamentary current I (for example due to a wire). A steady (or stationary) current is a continual flow of charges which does not change with time and the charge neither accumulates nor depletes at any point.

    At 3 times the speed it was again eclipsed. [3] [4] Given the rotational speed of the wheel and the distance between the wheel and the mirror, Fizeau was able to calculate a value of 2 × 8633m × 720 × 25.2/s = 313,274,304 m/s for the speed of light. Fizeau's value for the speed of light was 4.5% too high. [5] The correct value is 299,792,458 ...

    The Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM), or the Malaysian Certificate of Education, is a national examination sat for by all Form 5 secondary school students in Malaysia.It is the equivalent of the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) of England, Wales and Northern Ireland; the Nationals 4/5 of Scotland; and the GCE Ordinary Level (O Level) of the Commonwealth of Nations.

  7. Physical quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_quantity

    Ampèremetre (Ammeter) A physical quantity (or simply quantity) [1] [a] is a property of a material or system that can be quantified by measurement.A physical quantity can be expressed as a value, which is the algebraic multiplication of a numerical value and a unit of measurement.

  8. Theoretical physics - Wikipedia

    [5] [6] Other examples include entropy as a measure of the uncertainty regarding the positions and motions of unseen particles and the quantum mechanical idea that (action and) energy are not continuously variable. Theoretical physics consists of several different approaches. In this regard, theoretical particle physics forms a good example.
