Explain why some metals can act as permanent magnets?

There is speculation among particle physicists that say these forces are the result of photons that are exchanged between particles.


What was Albert Einstein's work?

Einstein held a number of occupations. He worked as a clerk in a patent office, a research assistant, and as a professor, among other things. His "work" would probably best apply to his contributions to science. In addition to the famous Theory of General Relativity, he also is credited as being the founder of Quantum Physics, and formulated the well-known equation E=MC^2, among many other things.


What was Albert Einstien famous for?

He was a famous scientist in the early to mid 20th century. He studied physics and won a Nobel Prize for his work on the photoelectric effect. Among his other achievements are the theories of Special and General Relativity, and the equivalence of matter and energy in the equation E = Mc2 AND FOR HIS FUNNY AND BIG HAIR.


What relationship exists among mass radius of rotation period of revolving mass and the centripetal force in uniform circular motion?

The relationship between those four can be found from using the original centripetal force equation, Fc = (mv2)/r.Since we know v=d/t, we can sub that into the equation to get Fc=(md2)/(rT2), where T is actually the period.Now, we know the distance it travels is in a circular motion, so we can assume the distance it travels is equal to the circumference of that circle. Since we know that equation to be d=2Ï€r, we can sub that into our equation to make Fc=(m[2Ï€r]2)/(rT2). Expand that square brackets to make Fc=(m4Ï€2r2)/(rT2). After cancelling one radius from the top and bottom, you are left with the final equation:Fc=(m4Ï€2r)/T2, where m = the mass of the revolving object, r = radius of the curvature, and T = rotation period of the revolving mass.


Which color of light travels slowest and gets scattered the most in air?

Purple. In a prism, the higher energy light gets bent more. There is a disagrement about the name of the light -- it's either purple or violet. Physicists used to say violet. Psychologists used to say purple. It is the same light with different names, depending on the group.
