Pretty much depends on what field you are studying.
It might be defined in terms of the Lagrangian or Hamiltonian of motion if you’re studying classical mechanics.
In particle physics, it is the interaction […] -

I’m not exactly sure either, but it might be because blood itself is red, and reflects red colour only.

The Earth does not simply revolve around the sun, it revolves around the common centre of mass of the Earth-Sun system. There is no common centre of mass for a stone tied to a string.
Secondly, the stone […] -
Ajinkya Ranade wrote a new post, Answer for Why do we need the quantity Momentum, when we have the quantities like Force and Energy? Isn't it possible to substitute the usage of Momentum with equivalent of Force and Energy? 4 years, 10 months ago
In most Hamiltonian and Lagrangian formulations, we use Canonical momentum and not just the momentum, which is slightly different.
Momentum and position (or p and q) are implicitly related to the Hamiltonian of a […] -

For starters, Sahare sir won’t ask Viva questions for Jamin’s interferometer. Relax. 😛
Secondly. as far as I know, Jamin’s interferometer works on the principle that the optical path of light changes in […] -

Inverse square law.
The gravity works, but not so much.
Think of it this way: Your mom’s always pressuring you to be a good child.
When you are home (small distance) you obey everything.
When you are i […] -

This discovery was so significant because this was the only aspect of GTR that wasn’t experimentally verified.
Gravitational waves explain how the energy is radiated off in events with body having large masses, […]
