I wrote this article for students who are starting out with A-level or introductory physics. For this reason, while explaining how to calculate uncertainty, I’ll consider only the uncertainty arising…
Even experiments conducted by a skilled person never yield perfectly exact numbers. Every value, no matter how carefully measured, carries a doubt called measurement uncertainty. This article will help you…
If your experiment results don’t match textbook values, it’s not always your fault. Some errors in measurements are unavoidable. Once you understand the different types of errors, your experimental results…
Physics relies heavily on quantifying the natural world. But each time you measure a physical quantity, a small amount of uncertainty creeps in. And one of the key reasons? The…
Before diving into what scientific notation is and how to write it, let’s explore why we use it. Understanding its purpose will make learning the topic much more meaningful. Have…
All the fundamental laws of physics are expressed using different physical quantities. To solve physical problems, like how much force is needed to send the rocket into space? How fast…
Ever wondered what makes moving objects stop? Why does coffee gradually cool down over time instead of staying hot? Why does a ball thrown in the air always come back…
