Young’s modulus sometimes referred to as modulus of elasticity measures the ability of the material to withstand changes in length when under... View Article
Light behaves both as a particle and a wave. Light has a dual nature: Sometimes it behaves like a particle (photons) which explains why light... View Article
The buoyant force is the upward force of the rising water exerted upon the object by the fluid. The fluid pressure increases as the object's... View Article
The nodes in the circuit help us determine if the connected resistors are in series or parallel. A node in a circuit is a point of connection... View Article
No, S waves are slower than P waves. Both S waves and P waves are body waves that propagate through the Earth’s interior. On average, P waves... View Article
A transistor is a semiconductor device that amplifies electronic signals and electric power. Transistors amplify and control the applied electric... View Article
Any scalars that are defined as the magnitude of a vector is non-negative. But, there are some scalars that can be negative. Electric charge is... View Article
A capacitor is an electronic component that stores electric charge. A capacitor consists of two closely placed conductor plates separated by a... View Article
Unbiased condition is when there is no external energy source. In an unbiased diode, the electric field is set up across the depletion layer... View Article
The standard error (SE) is the approximate standard deviation of a statistical sample population. The standard error measures the accuracy with... View Article
The normal vector is a vector which is perpendicular to the surface at a given point. It is also called “normal” to a surface is a vector.... View Article
Yes, we can multiply two vectors either by dot product or cross product method. In a dot product the operation multiples two vectors and... View Article
Hooke’s law measures the force exerted by the spring to the object attached to it with the help of the following equation. F = –kx Where k is the... View Article
The movement of holes from the heavily doped emitter of the PNP transistor across the junction to the negative supply voltage constitutes the... View Article
Interference is defined as the phenomenon of superimposition of two or more waves of same frequency emitted by coherent sourcessuch that the... View Article
The pressure of the real gases is lesser than the ideal gas because of intermolecular forces. Intially it was assumed that all gases obey the... View Article
Impurities in the solution increase the boiling point. This is because impurities decrease the water molecules available for vaporisation during... View Article
The standard bridge circuit is called a Wheatstone bridge. Wheatstone bridge is used to determine the unknown resistance by balancing two legs... View Article
