    Study Notes

    Physics

    • Definition: The branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy.

    • Key Concepts:

      • Force: An interaction that changes the motion of an object (measured in Newtons).
      • Mass: A measure of the amount of matter in an object (measured in kilograms).
      • Acceleration: The rate of change of velocity of an object (measured in m/s²).

    • Laws of Motion:

      1. Newton's First Law: An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.
      2. Newton's Second Law: F = ma (the force acting on an object is equal to the mass of that object times its acceleration).
      3. Newton's Third Law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

    • Energy:

      • Kinetic Energy: Energy possessed by an object due to its motion; calculated as KE = 1/2 mv².
      • Potential Energy: Energy stored in an object due to its position; calculated as PE = mgh (where g is the acceleration due to gravity).

    • Thermodynamics:

      • First Law: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed.
      • Second Law: The total entropy of an isolated system can never decrease over time.

    • Waves:

      • Types: Mechanical (require a medium) and Electromagnetic (do not require a medium).
      • Properties: Wavelength, frequency, amplitude, speed.

    • Electromagnetism:

      • Relationship between electricity and magnetism: Moving electric charges produce magnetic fields.
      • Maxwell’s Equations: Set of four fundamental equations that describe how electric and magnetic fields interact.

    • Quantum Mechanics:

      • Wave-Particle Duality: Particles like electrons exhibit properties of both particles and waves.
      • Uncertainty Principle: It is impossible to simultaneously know both the position and momentum of a particle with absolute precision.

    • Relativity:

      • Special Relativity: Formulated by Einstein; states that the laws of physics are the same for all observers in uniform motion and introduces the concept that the speed of light is constant.
      • General Relativity: Proposes that gravity is a curvature of spacetime caused by mass.

    • Applications of Physics:

      • Engineering: Application of physical principles in the design and construction of structures, machines, and systems.
      • Technology: Development of devices like lasers, semiconductors, and telecommunications based on physical principles.

    Physics

    • Definition: The study of matter and energy, and how they interact.
    • Key Concepts:

      Force

      • An interaction that changes an object's motion.
      • Measured in Newtons (N).

      Mass

      • The amount of matter in an object.
      • Measured in kilograms (kg).

      Acceleration

      • The rate of change of an object's velocity.
      • Measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).

      Laws of Motion

      • Newton's First Law: Objects at rest stay at rest, and objects in motion stay in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net force.
      • Newton's Second Law: Force (F) equals mass (m) times acceleration (a) (F = ma).
      • Newton's Third Law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

      Energy

      • Kinetic Energy: Energy of motion; calculated as KE = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.
      • Potential Energy: Stored energy due to position; calculated as PE = mgh, where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is height.

      Thermodynamics

      • First Law: Energy can't be created or destroyed, only transformed.
      • Second Law: The total entropy of an isolated system always increases over time.

      Waves

      • Types: Mechanical waves require a medium to travel (like sound); electromagnetic waves do not (like light).
      • Properties: Wavelength (distance between crests), frequency (waves per second), amplitude (height of wave), and speed.

      Electromagnetism

      • Moving electric charges produce magnetic fields.
      • Maxwell's Equations: Four fundamental equations describing the interaction of electric and magnetic fields.

      Quantum Mechanics

      • Wave-Particle Duality: Particles like electrons can behave as both particles and waves.
      • Uncertainty Principle: It's impossible to know both the exact position and momentum of a particle at the same time.

      Relativity

      • Special Relativity: The laws of physics are the same for all observers in uniform motion, and the speed of light is constant.
      • General Relativity: Gravity is a curvature in spacetime caused by mass.

      Applications of Physics

      • Engineering: Applying physics principles to design and build structures, machines, and systems.
      • Technology: Developing devices like lasers, semiconductors, and telecommunications systems.
