applied physics vs physics


Physical States of Matter
Generally matter exists in different physical states under different environment. For example, water exists in three states. At very low temperature solid state ice, at room temperature liquid state water and at high temperature gaseous state steam. Characteristic of these states ar..
Physical significance of self inductance
The self inductance is called the electrical inertia of the coil or the circuit, just as mass is a measure of inertia in mechanical motion. If mass is large opposition is greater. Current flows through a circuit only when we overcome this inertia. If inductance is large, the induced e.m...

Cl 2 tube is proportional-to (1) vapour pressure of solvent (2) vapour pressure of solution (3) vapour pressure of solvent and solution (4) lowering of vapour pressure ^ 39. What is the relative lowering of vapour pressure when 12 g of urea is dissolved in 90 g of water (1) 0.025 pascal (2) 0.062 p..
Q:9 State Ohm's Law?
Answer: Under similar physical conditions, the current flowing through a wire is directly proportional to the difference in potential applied across its ends. I $\propto$ V...
Ohm’s Law
Ohm' title= Under similar physical conditions, the current flowing through a wire is directly proportional to the difference in potential applied across its ends. I $\propto$ V V = I R, where R is the resistance offered. ..
Quality factor (Q) of a circuits.
The quality factor (Q) is a nesure of the efficiency of energy stored in an inductor -or capacitor when an alternating cjrrentSs applied. This is defined as 2 n times the ratio I between the energy stored and the average energy loss per period. I Thus, x , ^ energv st..
Allotropic Modifications of Carbon
The property, by virtue of which an element exists in more than one form in the same physical state, having the same chemical properties but different physical properties, is called allotropy. The different forms are called allotropes. Allotropes specifically refers to the ch..
ORIGIN OF MAGNETISM DUE TO MOVING CHARGES
%2013.htm#bookmark4">2 substances, the atomic magnets in a specimen form closed rings cancelling each other's effect when the specimen is in the unmagnetised state [Fig. 13.3, a]. When the specimen is magnetised the atomic magnets, get aligned in the direction of the applied field. Perfec..
Thermodynamics
. The principles of thermodynamics are applied even in the construction of chemical reactors. Thermodynamics is used in the analyses of physical and chemical changes. It also deals with study of the properties of a system in equilibrium. The principles of thermodynamics are summ..
Limitations of Ohm's Law
Ohm's Law is just an empirical relationship. It is not a fundamental physical principle and does not specify any general property of matter. In case of electrolytes, another essential condition required for application of Ohm's Law is that the physical state (electrolyte ..
