Vector Algebra

Science > Physics > Scalars and Vectors > Vector Algebra Resultant of Vectors: A resultant vector is defined as a single vector whose effect is the same as the combined effect of two or more vectors. Notes: The two vectors to be added should have the same nature. i.e. force can be added to force and […]

Scalars and Vectors

Science > Physics > Scalars and Vectors > Scalars and Vectors In this article, we shall study scalars and vectors, their characteristics. Scalar Quantities or Scalars: The physical quantities which have magnitude only and which can be specified by a number and unit only are called scalar quantities or scalars. For e.g. when we are […]

No Comments on The Concept of Electric Field

Science > Physics > Electrostatics > The Concept of Electric Field When a charge is kept in a medium it sets around it, what is called an electric field. It can be represented by drawing what is called lines of force. If another charge is brought into this region it experiences a force. Due to the field, the […]

No Comments on Applications of Kinetic and Static Friction

Science > Physics > Friction > Applications of Friction In this article, we shall understand why does kinetic friction is smaller than the static friction and why it is easier to roll than solid. We shall also study some everyday examples in which friction is used. To produce relative motion between two bodies in contact […]

Friction

Science > Physics > Friction > Concept of Friction Friction or force of friction is a force which comes into existence when two bodies in contact have relative motion or tending to have relative with respect to each other and oppose the motion. Characteristics of Friction: Force of friction is always opposites to the force […]

Projectile Motion

Science > Physics > Projectile Motion > Analytical Treatment of Projectile Motion When a body is thrown making an acute angle with the horizontal, the body is said to perform the projectile motion. The path of the body performing projectile motion is called a trajectory. Example: A ball thrown by a fielder to the wicketkeeper, […]

No Comments on M’Naghten Rules (Defence of Insanity)

There are a variety of criminal defense strategies that a lawyer may utilize when defending a client in a criminal case. Courts will determine legal insanity. In this article, we shall study one of the strategies called The M’Naghten Rules. Insanity is a mental defect or disease that makes it impossible for a person to know what […]
