Wave-particle duality is the concept in quantum mechanics that every particle or quantum entity may be described as either a particle or a wave.... View Article
Momentum, the product of the mass of a particle and its velocity. For a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system,... View Article
No, a body can not have its velocity constant, while its speed varies. Rather, it can have its speed constant and its velocity varying. For... View Article
Yes if the body is travelling with uniform speed in a circular track its speed remains the same but the velocity is non-uniform as the direction... View Article
Catalyst is a substance which alter or change the current rate of reaction. The compound is formed with less energy consumption than needed for... View Article
The rate of reaction or reaction rate is the speed at which reactants are converted into products. The instantaneous rate of reaction is... View Article
Activation energy, in chemistry, the minimum amount of energy that is required to activate atoms or molecules to a condition in which they can... View Article
A large brake on a bicycle wheel is more effective than a small one because it will cover more surface area of the wheel in comparison to smaller... View Article
We have seen rockest moving in air-free space but not jet planes. Have you ever wondered the reason behind this? Let us explore the reason behind... View Article
On a surface without any friction, a person would be able to jump only straight up. Any force which is applied parallel to the surface would... View Article
Friction is independent of the area of contact. The reason behind this is that the actual area of contact on an atomic scale is a fraction of the... View Article
