  2. Time in physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_in_physics

    In physics, time is defined by its measurement: time is what a clock reads. [1] In classical, non-relativistic physics, it is a scalar quantity (often denoted by the symbol ) and, like length, mass, and charge, is usually described as a fundamental quantity.

  3. Four-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-dimensional_space

    Four-dimensional space ( 4D) is the mathematical extension of the concept of three-dimensional space (3D). Three-dimensional space is the simplest possible abstraction of the observation that one needs only three numbers, called dimensions, to describe the sizes or locations of objects in the everyday world.

  4. Spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectroscopy

    Spectroscopy, primarily in the electromagnetic spectrum, is a fundamental exploratory tool in the fields of astronomy, chemistry, materials science, and physics, allowing the composition, physical structure and electronic structure of matter to be investigated at the atomic, molecular and macro scale, and over astronomical distances .

  6. Cartoon physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartoon_physics

    Cartoon physics or animation physics are terms for a jocular system of laws of physics (and biology) that supersedes the normal laws, used in animation for humorous effect. Many of the most famous American animated films, particularly those from Warner Bros. and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios, indirectly developed a relatively consistent set of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoic_physics

    In Stoic physics, the Earth and the universe are all part of a single whole. Stoic physics refers to the natural philosophy of the Stoic philosophers of ancient Greece and Rome which they used to explain the natural processes at work in the universe . To the Stoics, the cosmos is a single pantheistic god, one which is rational and creative, and ...

  9. Plasma (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_(physics)

    Plasma is called the fourth state of matter after solid, liquid, and gas. [16] [17] [18] It is a state of matter in which an ionized substance becomes highly electrically conductive to the point that long-range electric and magnetic fields dominate its behaviour.
