Physics is a branch of Science that deals with the study of natural phenomena that are prevalent in the nature. So here we have to find out who is the Father of Physics. We might find this like just like we solve physical problems, by the Method of Deduction. We also know that this while […]

The kinetic energy that water gains when it falls (and can therefore be converted into electricity by a hydroelectric plant) comes ultimately from sunlight and not from gravity. As a force, no energy can be extracted from gravity itself. Public Domain Image, source: Christopher S. Baird. No, gravity can not be used as an infinite […]

Walking on Caltech’s campus, research engineer Chris Roh (MS ’13, Ph.D. ’17) happened to see a bee stuck in the water of Millikan Pond. Although it was a common-enough sight, it led Roh and his advisor, Mory Gharib (Ph.D. ’83), to a discovery about the potentially unique way that bees navigate the interface between water […]

He is currently the head of ICTP’s high energy, cosmology and astroparticle physics section. He joined the centre […]
Read MoreIt has been written about before, over and over again, but cannot be emphasized enough. The world of quantum physics is an eerie one, one that sheds light on the truth about our world in ways that challenge the existing framework of accepted knowledge. What we perceive as our physical material world, is really not […]

by National University of Singapore This image shows that when the setup is rotated at 0.5 rpm, the experimental system on the left shows the hottest (white) part of the ring is fixed at the bottom after several seconds of motion. The reference on the right shows the hottest part of the ring has moved further […]
