  2. Equivalence principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_principle

    The weak equivalence principle, also known as the universality of free fall or the Galilean equivalence principle can be stated in many ways. The strong equivalence principle, a generalization of the weak equivalence principle, includes astronomic bodies with gravitational self-binding energy. [ 11 ]

  3. Weak interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weak_interaction

    The weak interaction has a coupling constant (an indicator of how frequently interactions occur) between 10 −7 and 10 −6, compared to the electromagnetic coupling constant of about 10 −2 and the strong interaction coupling constant of about 1; [13] consequently the weak interaction is "weak" in terms of intensity. [14]

  4. Mass–energy equivalence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass–energy_equivalence

    Mass–energy equivalence states that all objects having mass, or massive objects, have a corresponding intrinsic energy, even when they are stationary.In the rest frame of an object, where by definition it is motionless and so has no momentum, the mass and energy are equal or they differ only by a constant factor, the speed of light squared (c 2).

  6. Modified Newtonian dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_Newtonian_dynamics

    The external field effect implies a fundamental break with the strong equivalence principle (but not necessarily the weak equivalence principle). The effect was postulated by Milgrom in the first of his 1983 papers to explain why some open clusters were observed to have no mass discrepancy even though their internal accelerations were below a 0 ...

  7. Q value (nuclear science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_value_(nuclear_science)

    A reaction with a negative Q value is endothermic, i.e. requires a net energy input, since the kinetic energy of the final state is less than the kinetic energy of the initial state. [1] Observe that a chemical reaction is exothermic when it has a negative enthalpy of reaction, in contrast a positive Q value in a nuclear reaction.

  8. Chemical energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_energy

    Chemical energy is the energy of chemical substances that is released when the substances undergo a chemical reaction and transform into other substances. Some examples of storage media of chemical energy include batteries, [1] food, and gasoline (as well as oxygen gas, which is of high chemical energy due to its relatively weak double bond [2] and indispensable for chemical-energy release in ...
