Diffraction – The Bending and Spreading of Waves

Diffraction is a wave phenomenon that occurs when waves encounter an obstacle or pass through a narrow opening. Instead of

Hooke’s Law – The Elastic Force of Springs

Hooke’s Law describes how elastic materials like springs behave when stretched or compressed. It states that the restoring force required

Plasma – The Fourth State of Matter

Plasma is a unique and energetic state of matter distinct from solids, liquids, and gases. It forms when a gas

Resonance – Amplifying Oscillations at Natural Frequency

Resonance is a phenomenon that occurs when an external force drives a system at its natural frequency—the specific frequency at

Coefficient of Restitution – Measuring Collision Energy Conservation

The coefficient of restitution (COR) is a number that tells us how “bouncy” a collision is between two objects. It

Snell’s Law and the Bending of Light

Snell’s Law explains how light changes direction, or bends, when it travels from one medium to another—such as from air

Stefan–Boltzmann Law: How Temperature Affects Energy Emission

Explanation:The Stefan–Boltzmann Law explains how much energy an object emits based on its temperature. It applies to a perfect blackbody,

Standing Waves: Stationary Patterns from Interfering Waves

Standing waves are formed when two waves of identical frequency and amplitude travel in opposite directions and interfere with each

Mach Number: Measuring Speed Relative to Sound

The Mach number is a dimensionless quantity that compares the speed of an object to the speed of sound in

Brownian Motion: Random Dance of Particles in Fluids

Brownian motion refers to the erratic and random movement of tiny particles, such as pollen grains, when they are suspended
