    "Ancient of Days" (Figure 1). The tradition continues today‚ as Zuse argues that "space calculates" [1] and others ask if reality computes?2 This essay explores the virtual reality (VR) conjecture‚ that the physical world is the digital output of quantum processing. One can contrast Platonic idealism‚ that the seen world reflects a greater unseen one‚ with Aristotelian physicalism‚ that what we see is Figure 1. God computes? all there is. Logically‚ one of these world views must be wrong‚ but after

    theory and quantum mechanics are two basic branch of modern physics ‚ classical mechanics laid the foundation of classical physics ‚ but for high speed objects and microscopic condition of objects‚ Newton’s laws are no longer applicable. An important conclusion of the theory of relativity is talking about mass and energy. Based on the special relativity ‚mass and energy are not interchangeable‚ while in classical mechanics‚ mass and energy are mutually independent‚ but in relativistic mechanics‚ energy

    classical mechanics‚ because they are consistent with each other and with Newton’s laws of motion. Lagrange’s and Hamilton’s equations are useful for solving many complicated dynamical problems. In principle‚ the properties of bulk matter must be deducible from the properties of electrons and atomic nuclei of which it is composed. However‚ it is found that many the observed properties of matter cannot be explained on the assumption that the particles obey the laws of classical mechanics. At the

    research. Use specific examples from this lesson in your answer to support each position. One argument against continuing research on the atom is that the cost continues to increase at an alarming rate‚ and the benefits seem to be declining. Wheras quantum chemistry experiments as early as 80 years ago were very cheap and yielded considerable practical results‚ now very few if any practical results are emerging‚ but the costs of experiments continues to increase. For example‚ the Large Hadron Collider(LHC)

    Arul Prasath .K School of Electronics Science‚ VIT University‚ Vellore - 632014‚ TamilNadu‚ India Arulprasath.kvit01@gmail.com; Abstract This paper deals with the discussion of mass and energy in light. Light consist of very less amount of mass that it could not be measured. This paper is based on the concept that when the mass of light is increased it can move the objects. So‚ the light with increased mass can be used in many applications in practical life such as producing electricity. Increase

    simple‚ elegant‚ revolutionary‚ and wrong. Well‚ "wrong" isn’t exactly accurate—incomplete or preliminary are better terms. The Bohr model was an essential step toward an accurate theory of atomic structure‚ which required the development of quantum mechanics in the 1920s. Even in its preliminary state‚ the model is good enough for many calculations in astronomy‚ chemistry‚ and other fields‚ saving the trouble of performing often-complex calculations with the Schrödinger equation. This conceptual

Background: One of the most successful theories of the 20th century is quantum mechanics‚ also called wave mechanics. The idea that energy in atoms occurs in discrete bundles is contrary to our everyday notion that energy flows smoothly into or out of a reaction. But on the atomic and molecular scale‚ our everyday notions must be set aside. Likewise

    Stephen Hawking was born on 8 January 1942 to Dr. Frank Hawking‚ a research biologist‚ and Isobel Hawking. He had two younger sisters‚ Philippa and Mary‚ and an adopted brother‚ Edward.[11] Though Hawking’s parents were living in North London‚ they moved to Oxford while his mother was pregnant with Stephen‚ desiring a safer location for the birth of their first child. (London was under attack at the time by the Luftwaffe.)[12] According to Hawking‚ a German V-2 missile struck only a few streets away

Answer: max planck proposed that e.m radiation comes in units of defined energy rather than in any arbitrary quantities. Planck called it quantum The Photoelectric Effect Planck’s theories were used to explain a number of observations that had been troubling scientists.
