Who is Kip Stephen Thorne? Kip Thorne was born on June 1‚ 1940 in Logan‚ Utah (age 77). He was an American theoretical physicist and was known for how much information he carried around about physics. He got married to Linda Jean Peterson in 1960 and had two children. He then got a divorce in 1977. He got remarried to Carolee Joyce Winstein in 1984. Kip Thorne got his education in the California Institute of Technology and in Princeton University. The field he majored in was Astrophysics. He excelled

For the foundation for modern physics‚ it helped lead onto other modern physics discoveries such as Photons‚ Bose-Einstein Condensate‚ and the Atomic Bomb. Life without this knowledge is like a life without living. As you can see‚ without Einstein’s discoveries‚ loads of other pieces of modern physics would not have been found. And finally‚ how did he die? Albert Einstein died from a ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

UNDESPICABLE MECHANICS Hmmmmp. I really don’t like Physics. I don’t want to learn it. It’s so DESPICABLE! When I grow up. I want to be a Physicist. I think Physics is exciting! How about you? UNDESPICABLE MECHANICS Physics is not DESPICABLE! It’s actually exciting. Let’s help Gru understand more about Physics. UNDESPICABLE MECHANICS Yeah yeah! We will help! Come on‚ Gru!

Ernst Ludwig Planck was born in Kiel‚ Germany. He was the sixth child of a law professor at the University of Kiel. At the age of nine his interest in physics and mathematics was developed by his teacher Hermann Muller. When he graduated at the age of seventeen he decided to choose physics over music for his career. Although he is know for physics he was an exceptional pianist who had acquired the gift of being able to hear absolute pitch. His favorite works of music were known to be Schubert and

challenges‚ based on the mechanisms of biology and the principles of physics. Biology studies our life‚ its variety and complexity and physics looks for mathematical laws of nature and makes predictions about the forces that drive idealized systems. The main challenge of Biophysics is to span the distance between the complexity of life and the simplicity of physical laws. In other words biophysics acts as a bridge between biology and physics. Biophysicists’ main job is to study life at each and every level

On our trip to Thorpe Park we experienced the thrills of the rides and were given a talk explaining the science behind them. This will hopefully explain more about the science behind the rides. Firstly the physics behind the rides. The acceleration is what makes rollercoasters so fun and enjoyable and I’ll now explain why they accelerate so quickly. The purpose of the coaster’s initial ascent is to build up its potential energy. As the coaster gets higher in the air‚ gravity can pull it down a

There is a parlor game physics students play: Who was the greater genius? Galileo or Kepler? (Galileo) Maxwell or Bohr? (Maxwell‚ but it’s closer than you might think). Hawking or Heisenberg? (A no-brainer‚ whatever the best-seller lists might say. It’s Heisenberg). But there are two figures who are simply off the charts. Isaac Newton is one. The other is Albert Einstein. If pressed‚ physicists give Newton pride of place‚ but it is a photo finish -- and no one else is in the race. Newton’s claim

“Millions of people saw an apple fall‚ but Newton was the one who asked why”‚ said Bernard Mannes Baruch (1870 – 1965) an advisor to more than 40 Presidents. And that is why I chose the major Engineering‚ because I just want to know why. Why do planes fly? Why does the Sun shine? I believe that Engineering is the answer to all of the scientific questions asked. The definition of Engineer is a person that is an expert in technology. They design machines‚ computer programs‚ buildings‚ and chemical
