inversion temperature in thermodynamics and cryogenics is the critical temperature below which a non-ideal gas (all gases in reality) that is expanded at constant enthalpy will experience a temperature decrease, and above which will experience a temperature increase. This temperature ...Thermodynamics

In 1702 Guillaume Amontons introduced the concept of absolute zero based on observations of gases. In 1810, Sir John Leslie froze water to ice artificially. The idea of absolute zero was generalised in 1848 by Lord Kelvin. In 1906, Walther Nernst stated the third law of thermodynamics. Adapted...
Classical mechanics was traditionally divided into three main branches: * Statics, the study of equilibrium and its relation to forces. * Dynamics, the study of motion and its relation to forces. * Kinematics, dealing with the implications of observed motions without regard for circumstances...

By: Man SinghRight from ancient time science has revolutionized a wheel of progress made so far. Historical contribution of science for society was initiated by Alexander Grahm Bell whose mom and students whom he married were deaf, on March 10, ...
Models based on general relativity play an important role in astrophysics, and the success of these models is further testament to the theory’s validity. Gravitational lensing Since light is deflected in a gravitational field, it is possible for the light ...
There are cases in physics when it is not possible to derive a theory for describing observed results from the known first principles (such as Newton’s laws of motion or Maxwell’s equations of electromagnetism). There may be several reasons for ...
In ancient and medieval times, the objective study of nature was known as natural philosophy. In late medieval and early modern times, a philosophical interpretation of nature was gradually replaced by a scientific approach using inductive methodology. The works of ...
Astrophysics (Greek: ”Astro ”- meaning “star”, and Greek: ”physis ”– ”φύσις ” – meaning “nature”) is the branch of astronomy that deals with the physics of the universe, including the physical properties (luminosity, density, temperature, and chemical composition) of celestial ...
