  2. List of physics mnemonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physics_mnemonics

    A Magic Triangle image mnemonic - when the terms of Ohm's law are arranged in this configuration, covering the unknown gives the formula in terms of the remaining parameters. It can be adapted to similar equations e.g. F = ma, v = fλ, E = mcΔT, V = π r 2 h and τ = rF sinθ.

  3. Self-avoiding walk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-avoiding_walk

    Is there a formula or algorithm that can calculate the number of self-avoiding walks in any given lattice? (more unsolved problems in mathematics) In mathematics , a self-avoiding walk ( SAW ) is a sequence of moves on a lattice (a lattice path ) that does not visit the same point more than once.

  4. 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.

  5. Projectile motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectile_motion

    This formula allows one to find the angle of launch needed without the restriction of =. One can also ask what launch angle allows the lowest possible launch velocity. This occurs when the two solutions above are equal, implying that the quantity under the square root sign is zero.

  6. Range of a projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_projectile

    In physics, a projectile launched with specific initial conditions will have a range. It may be more predictable assuming a flat Earth with a uniform gravity field, and no air resistance. The horizontal ranges of a projectile are equal for two complementary angles of projection with the same velocity.

  7. Radiation pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_pressure

    For an absorbing sheet facing the Sun, this is simply: [18] = = . This result is in pascals , equivalent to N/m 2 ( newtons per square meter). For a sheet at an angle α to the Sun, the effective area A of a sheet is reduced by a geometrical factor resulting in a force in the direction of the sunlight of: F = G SC c ( A cos ⁡ α ...

  8. List of physical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_constants

    While the values of the physical constants are independent of the system of units in use, each uncertainty as stated reflects our lack of knowledge of the corresponding value as expressed in SI units, and is strongly dependent on how those units are defined.

  9. Angular frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_frequency

    A sphere rotating around an axis. Points farther from the axis move faster, satisfying ω = v / r.. In physics, angular frequency (symbol ω), also called angular speed and angular rate, is a scalar measure of the angle rate (the angle per unit time) or the temporal rate of change of the phase argument of a sinusoidal waveform or sine function (for example, in oscillations and waves).
