Why did Leo James Rainwater win The Nobel Prize in Physics in 1975?
The Nobel Prize in Physics 1975 was awarded jointly to Aage Niels Bohr, Ben Roy Mottelson and Leo James Rainwater for the discovery of the connection between collective motion and particle motion in atomic nuclei and the development of the theory of the structure of the atomic nucleus based on this connection.
Physics is the study of?
A physicist is a person who studies physics. The study of Physics is the study of the motion and behavior of all known objects and energy in the universe. A physicist studies physics. Physics is the science of modelling the universe around us in an attempt to understand the universe, and to predict its behavior, by examining and manipulating the model. The term "Physicist" was coined by English philosopher, priest, and historian of science William Whewell in 1840, to denote a cultivator of physics. There are a variety of branches of physics from studies in sub-atomic particles to studies of the behavior of the material of the universe as a whole.
What term is defined as the study of energy and its tronsformations?
Physics is the general term used for the discipline that studies and models the types of energy and energy sources. But there are specific labels for specific kinds of energy studies. These in include, but are not limited to, nuclear physics, sub-atomic physics, thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, mechanics, astrophysics, physical chemistry, and so on. The definition of physics is "...the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. " [Dictionary]
What are all the branches and sub branches of physics?
The major Branches of physics are as below : Acoustics: deals with sound. Astrophysics: space and extraterrestrial studies. Atomic physics: study of atoms. bio physics: applications of rules of physics.

What is Z number in chemistry?
Z is the atomic number in Chemistry and Physics.
What branch of physics and chemistry was developed by physics and chemistry together?
Atomic theory, electrochemistry (batteries and such) and analytical chemistry were developed by both sciences. If you think of it, physics and chemistry are inseparable from each other
Do atomic studies belong more to physics or chemistry?
I suppose that physics is more important.
What are the study of atoms and its component called?
Atomic physics and nuclear physics.
What branch of science studies atoms?
The branch of science that studies atoms is called atomic physics or atomic science. It deals with the structure, behavior, and properties of atoms, including how they interact and form chemical bonds.
What is the study of the structure of atomic nuclei?
Nuclear physics.
Give an example of a case where the branches of natural science appear to overlap?
Atomic physics & Chemistry
What equation was used to create the atomic bomb?
Many of them, from both physics and chemistry. Engineering equations were used.
How did chemists identify the different parts of an atom?
This is a problem of atomic physics !
In science is chemistry or physics the more mature discipline?
If by "mature" is meant completely grown or a science having reached its apex, then neither chemistry nor physics have stopped growing. They both are important sciences. Chemistry is the only science which can actually *change* one molecule into another. Physics, these days, deals mostly with sub-atomic particles. We need both chemistry and physics. Chemistry has contributed the most to civilization, but physics has made some significant advances also.
What is the field of physics that studies atomic nuclei?
The answer is Atomic Physics. Atomic physics is the study of atomic interractions.
