Drude and Lorentz gave classical free electron theory of metals theory in 1900. Another name for this is Drude –Lorentz theory of metals.
The group of high energy particles, which move closely to the speed of light is the …
The entropy of a substance is a real quantity, just like pressure, volume and temperature. Its unit is joule/Kelvin (J/K).
Thermodynamics is the branch of physics which deals with heat and other forms of energy and also gives relationships between them.
Interference of waves occurs when two or more waves overlap at a given point.
Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) is when the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement of the body from its mean position.
The wave function contains all the information about the particle. It is not an observable quantity.
Faraday’s law gives the idea about how an electromotive force comes into action when a magnetic field interacts with an electric circuit.
Semiconductors are materials that have conductivity between conductors and insulators.
Lorentz transformation gives the relationship between two different coordinate frames moving at a constant velocity w.r.t. to each other.
Compton discovered the most important confirmation about the particle aspect of radiation.
The phenomenon of Raman scattering of light was experimentally observed in 1928 by Raman and Krishnan.
