  3. Video abstract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_abstract

    A video abstract accompanying a journal article. An example extracted from New Journal of Physics.. Video abstracts represent a new genre in science-communication. They can be defined as “peer-to-peer video summaries, three to five minutes long versions of academic papers” [Berkowitz, 2013] [1] that “describe dynamic phenomena which are simply too complicated, too complex, too unusual ...

  4. The Character of Physical Law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Character_of_Physical_Law

    Critical reception has been positive. [4] [5] The journal The Physics Teacher, in recommending it to both scientists and non-scientists alike, gave The Character of Physical Law a favorable review, writing that although the book was initially intended to supplement the recordings, it was "complete in itself and will appeal to a far wider audience".

  5. QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter - Wikipedia

    The first edition cover featured an iridescent soap bubble, an example of the phenomenon of interference. In an acknowledgement Feynman wrote: [1] This book purports to be a record of the lectures on quantum electrodynamics I gave at UCLA, transcribed and edited by my good friend Ralph Leighton. Actually, the manuscript has undergone ...

  6. Motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion

    In physics, motion is when an object changes its position with respect to a reference point in a given time. Motion is mathematically described in terms of displacement, distance, velocity, acceleration, speed, and frame of reference to an observer, measuring the change in position of the body relative to that frame with a change in time.

    Lectures on Theoretical Physics is a six-volume series of physics textbooks translated from Arnold Sommerfeld's classic German texts Vorlesungen über Theoretische Physik. The series includes the volumes Mechanics , Mechanics of Deformable Bodies , Electrodynamics , Optics , Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics , and Partial Differential ...

  8. Outline of physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_physics

    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 ...

  9. Moving magnet and conductor problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_magnet_and...

    Take, for example, the reciprocal electrodynamic action of a magnet and a conductor. The observable phenomenon here depends only on the relative motion of the conductor and the magnet, whereas the customary view draws a sharp distinction between the two cases in which either the one or the other of these bodies is in motion.
