Light category: 16 books

My Design in this Book is not to explain the Properties of Light by Hypotheses, but to propose and prove them by Reason and Experiments: In order to which I shall premise the following Definitions and Axioms. DEFIN. I. By the Rays of Light I understand its least Parts, and those as well Successive...

Abstract Although current physics considers special relativity just a theory, the basic principle of this theory, which states that the speed of light is constant and is a speed limit in nature is accepted as a fundamental physics law. In reality, however, the special theory of relativity...

Feynman Simplified gives mere mortals access to the fabled Feynman Lectures on Physics. As a Caltech undergraduate, I had the amazing opportunity to learn physics directly from the greatest scientist of our age. I absorbed all I could. His style and enthusiasm were as important as the facts and equations. Feynman...

In the following pages I have endeavored to discuss artificial light for the general reader, in a manner as devoid as possible of intricate details. The early chapters deal particularly with primitive artificial light and their contents are generally historical.

According to Nobel committee citation, this year’s Nobel Prize for Physics has been awarded to Isamu Akasaki and Hiroshi Amano, Nagoya University, Japan, and Shuji Nakamura, University of California, Santa Barbara, for the invention of efficient blue-light emitting diodes (LEDs). These have enabled...

The proving method on the theory of general relativity as requested by its founder, Albert Einstein, is unjustifiable from scientific point of view of the astronomy. In addition, a hypothesis stating that the light is bent by gravity of massive object ignores the existence of light refraction (Snell’s...

A few years ago we did not consider LED lights as a viable option, but today the scenario has changed. The price of LED lights has come down, awareness has increased and the quality of lights has also improved. Till last year we considered price of the light as the only important factor while making a purchase. Today, we want a quality product without compromising on price.

Ce livre vous donnera une bonne connaissance générale de l'essentiel de la théorie de la physique.

Nous sommes dans la ville de Cosme, en Milanais, pendant les premiers jours de l’année 1800, tout à fait à l’aurore du grand siècle des sciences physiques. Si nous entrons dans le cabinet d’un physicien retiré dans cette ville, à la fin d’une longue carrière d’enseignement, nous y...

This book presents the beginning of an overall 20-volume information series titled “The Good News”, which consists of “Iissiidiology. Fundamentals”, “Commentaries to Fundamentals”, and author’s Song lyrics with a highly-spiritual content written to popular and all-loved melodies....

The proving method on the theory of general relativity as requested by its founder, Albert Einstein, is unjustifiable from scientific point of view of the astronomy. Cara pembuktian Teori Relativitas Umum yang diminta oleh pencetus teori, Albert Einstein, ternyata keliru jika ditinjau dari keilmiahan...

This highly-precise and cost-effective transmissometer developed by Council of Scientific and Industrial Research-National Aerospace Laboratories (CSIR-NAL) is a significant contribution to the field of electronics and airport instrumentation in India

Teoria relativității speciale a fost propusă în 1905 de Albert Einstein în articolul său "Despre electrodinamica corpurilor în mișcare". Titlul articolului se referă la faptul că relativitatea rezolvă o neconcordanță între ecuațiile lui Maxwell și mecanica clasică. Teoria...

O introducere în fenomenologia opticii geometrice (reflexia, refracția, principiul lui Fermat, oglinzi, miraje, dispersia, lentile), opticii fizice (undele luminoase, principiul Huygens–Fresnel, difracția, interferența, polarizarea, vederea tridimensională, holografia), opticii cuantice (fotoni,...
