    world. Basically, due to Hawking's idea of black holes, physics and mathematics were more than ever knitted together. His use of the laws of thermodynamics, quantum physics, and general relativity (which had never been used together ever before) demonstrated that. Even after Einstein’s use of relativity, Hawking created a idea that would entirely create a new idea and view of black holes (The Intimate Relation Between Mathematics and Physics). The United States and its venture of space…

    one year after the founding of the USSR, George went to the University of Leningrad to study physics. He and his friends would often discuss quantum mechanics which was cutting edge science at that time and was leading to the secrets of how the atom works. George earned his PhD through his own investigations into the strange behavior of the atomic nucleus. For three years he worked at the Theoretical Physics Institute which is part of the University…

    Edward has written who is he you ask.Well he is an American theoretical physicist. He is also the professor of mathematical physics at the Institute for Advanced Study which is located in Princeton, New Jersey.He was also the person who discovered the string theory.Which states “that subatomic particles, instead of being single points, are actually strings, oscillating (vibrating) a certain way.” He also discovered a couple more theories. Edward Written was born August 26, 1951, in Baltimore,…

    very significant role in the essence of all sciences, and especially in the empirical sciences. Randomness is a critical component of biological modeling at many levels in a wide range of systems. The fundamental axioms of the quantum paradigm in physics are, by definition, essentially stochastic. Economics uses the randomness in human thought to create econometric models that business models can use to optimize their decisions. Traffic flow applications use Poisson distributions as a critical…

    standing on a platform (VCE Physics, 2017). When passing the observer on the platform, it is expected that the light would be moving at 1.5 times the speed of light as you add the speed of the train to the speed of light (VCE Physics, 2017). However, due to special relativity, light is constant from every perspective, resulting in time being altered. This is because more time has passed for the observer on the platform than in the carriage, hence creating a time dilation (VCE Physics,…

    marked the evolution from absolute determinism to probabilistic interactions. After this era, entropy did not always increase, only sometimes. By following the introduction of Heisenberg’s famous uncertainty principle, Lindley represents the giants of physics as personable characters, each with their own virtues and misgivings; as human as the rest of us. Through vivid descriptions of interactions and correspondence between the key players, it is clear to see the formation of two main schools of…

    Rutherford’s planetary model. After his publication of his model he received worldwide fame. Unfortunately, Bohr’s model worked only for hydrogen atoms. Which made the final atomic model yet to be developed. In 1922 he received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1922 for his investigations of the structure of atoms and of the radiation emitting from them. Later on he served as a professor at the University of Copenhagen as well as the director of the…
