Father of physics?
Albert Einstein is often regarded as the father of modern physics.
What course can i do without physics?
Architectural engineering; civil engineering (physics is often not compulsory in most universities); you can also consider some architecture
What is the definition of classical physics?
Classical physics is the physics without considering quantum mechanics. This is the type of physics practiced by for example Newton (you might also come across the term Newtonian physics). General relativity is also a classical theory. The distinction is often used because quantum mechanics changed quite a bit in many fields of physics, so the term 'classical physics' allows for a clear distinction. The opposite of classical physics would be quantum physics.
How is the validity of scientic theory tested?
Scientific Theory is tested by observations and experiments predicted by the theory. If the observations confirm the theory the theory is validated if not the theory is not validated. Experiments themselves need validation, often there are errors in the experiments or observations, e.g Michaelson and Morley Aether experiment and red shift observations.
What type of radiation is used in gold foil experiments?
Alpha radiation :) The point is that Alpha radiation doesn't pass through gold foil. Therefore there was an obvious issue when they were detecting particles passing through the foil every so often. This lead to the theory that objects consist of billions of atoms as opposed to being one solid object. Hope this helps! Sources - L. Robinson's Higher Physics
Why are experiments often performed in laboratories?
In science, if you are trying to "prove" a theory (that's confirm it or falsify it), you must use experimental evidence. That is, you use the theory to make a prediction and then try it out. It's no good just to sit around and talk about it.
What services does PHet provide?
PHet provides the service of simulating physical phenomena. They are often used when studying physics online, without access to real-life experiments.
Why is argon often a good choice for these experiments?
The answer will depend on what "these" experiments are!
What is the relation between math and science?
Mathematical equations are often used in science to design, execute, and rationalize experiments and concepts. Instructions in science classes often include numbers, ratios, and formulas. Math is also essential in physics.
Where do chemisets work?
chemists often work in the laboratories.:D
Which of these are often included in scientific experiments?
measurements
Father of physics?
Albert Einstein is often regarded as the father of modern physics.
What type of biologist most often does not work in indoor laboratories?
A field biologist.
For economists substitutes for laboratory experiments often come in the form of?
natural experiments offered by history or untested theories
What type of research os often done in laboratories or controlled circumstances?
Basic Research
Which hallucinogen can be synthesized by a simple chemical process and is often manufactured in clandestine laboratories?
LSD
What stresses the study of small groups and often uses experimental study in laboratories?
conflict theory
