On the surface, the concept of Time Dilation seems so strange to us that we imagine its formula must be one of incredible complexity. In reality, its incredible simplicity almost belies the genius required to conceive of it (Minkowski, Lorentz, Einstein). It…
read moreThe term wave function is often associated explicitly with Quantum Physics, but this is just one special case of a wave function. In broader terms, a wave function is a function that satisfies a wave equation and describes the properties of a…
read moreNatural units are physical units of measurement based purely on universal physical constants. Well-known examples include the speed of light c, the electric charge e, and the gravitational constant G. In an ideal mathematical description of our universe, all of these would…
read moreChaos theory describes the underlying patterns and deterministic laws of dynamical systems that were once thought to have completely random states of disorder and irregularities, but found to be completely deterministic but simply highly sensitive to initial conditions. Such high sensitivity to…

read moreAverage Velocity is calculated using the change in displacement over a period of time. The change in displacement is calculated as the initial displacement subtracted from the final displacement, that quantity divided by the initial time subtracted from the final time.
