Physical Sciences String Theory Physicists like to group concepts, but sometimes the theories don’t always get along. Nature’s laws can be currently explained by either general relativity or quantum physics. However, concepts from one group don’t necessarily agree with concepts from the other. Physicists have been trying to find the theory of everything for decades: a single or set […] Written by Sohaib Salman 2020-07-312020-07-31 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Physical Sciences Radioactivity: The Start of Modern Physics Nineteenth century was the century of science evolution. Many revolutionary ideas were presented during this century. In biology, Charles Darwin introduced the idea of evolution and natural selection. The germ theory of diseases was proved. In physics, the experiments, theories and discoveries of the likes of Michael Faraday, Andre-Marie Ampere, James Clerk Maxwell, and others […] Written by Muhammad Ismail Khan 2020-05-032020-05-03 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Engineering Physical Sciences Technology Quantum Computers: Concept, Technology and Applications The invention of computer made calculations very fast. It paved the way for a rapid progress in science and technology. The early versions of computer were bulky. However, the invention of integrated chip in 1959 made desktops and laptops possible.

Physical Sciences Dark Matter: The Most Prolonged Mystery in Physics All the clusters of galaxies that we can see only make up for less than 5% of the universe. All the remaining 95+% is made of stuff that cannot be observed. This has led scientists on a quest to improve our understanding of these mystical ingredients. According to Sir Issac Newton, bodies have a mutual […] Written by Husnain Mehmood 2019-12-122019-12-12 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Engineering News Physical Sciences Technology Particle Image Velocimetry Ever wondered how engineers design aircraft, boats, submarines, rockets, jet engines, wind turbines or artificial hearts? These devices, though differing greatly in function, involve a fluid — air in aircraft, water in boats and blood in hearts. Thus, in order to properly design these devices, there is a need to analyze the motion of fluid […] Written by Muhammad Ali Qureshi 2019-09-242019-09-29 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Astronomy Physical Sciences How Do We Know Black Holes Exist? Black holes are one of the most amazing phenomena in the universe. To get an idea of their magnificence, join your thumb and index finger to form a circle. Now imagine the entire Earth is squeezed down to fit in that circle. The density of the object between your thumb and finger would be the […] Written by Afroze Zehra Zaidi 2019-09-122019-10-21 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
