This 6-page laminated reference guide outlines the key concepts in Physics. It contains information on: 2- & 3-dimensional coordinate systems, types of forces, kinetic energy, rotation of a rigid body, Newton's Law of Motion and much more.
Despite its dazzling reputation, Isaac Newton's Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, or simply the Principia, remains a mystery for many people. Few of even the most intellectually curious readers, including professional scientists and mathematicians, have actually looked in the Principia or appreciated its contents. Mathematician Colin ......
In the past several years, a revival of research devoted to nursing education has emerged. This emergence has changed the way many educators engage in their practice of working with learners; and learners have come to expect that they will have a rich learning experience designed to develop new (or enhance prior) knowledge, skills, and attitudes. The SAGE Handbook of Nursing Education provides a detailed map of the current discipline, with a carefully selected team of international contributors offering the latest thinking about education in nursing across key areas. This handbook will be a key resource for academic educators, as well as graduate and postgraduate learners.
"In the judgment of the most competent living mathematicians, Fräulein Noether was the most significant creative mathematical genius thus far produced since the higher education of women began." Albert Einstein
The year was 1915, and the young mathematician Emmy Noether had just settled into Göttingen ......
The Extraordinary Story of the Higgs Boson and Other Stuff That Will Blow Your Mind
Since 2008 scientists have conducted experiments in a hyperenergized, 17-mile supercollider beneath the border of France and Switzerland. The Large Hadron Collider (or what scientists call ""the LHC"") is one of the wonders of the modern world'a highly sophisticated scientific instrument designed to re-create in miniature the conditions of the ......
Presents Newton's mathematical principles relating to natural philosophy and his system of the world. This book includes chapters relative to the motion of bodies; motion of bodies in resisting mediums; and system of the world in mathematical treatment; a section on axioms or laws of motion, and definitions.
Even in his lifetime, Henry Gwyn Jeffreys Moseley,who died at Gallipoli in 1915, was widely regarded as the most promising British physicist of his generation.Had he survived, he could well have won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1916. His death provoked in Britain a reassessment of the role that scientists might play in war. This book of essays ......
Stephen Hawking was one of the most important astrophysicists of the last fifty years. After the publication of A Brief History of Time, he became an international celebrity. Though the book sold in the millions, few readers really grasped the significance of his groundbreaking work. Now popular Austrian science blogger Florian Freistetter, ......
