Engineering Physics

There is no real limit in the discipline of physics. It involves matters that are as huge as the galaxy to things as small as neutrons. This audiobook deals with the smallest side of it, which is the branch of quantum physics. Throughout the course of this audiobook, you will get a much better understanding of quantum physics starting from the basic concepts to some in-depth information. You will also see a lot of math and calculus in the audiobook since quantum physics uses many concepts from those subjects.

In 1911, some of the greatest minds in science convened at the First Solvay Conference in Physics, a meeting like no other. Almost half of the attendees had won or would go on to win the Nobel Prize. Over the course of those few days, these minds began to realize that classical physics was about to give way to quantum theory, a seismic shift in our history and how we understand not just our world, but the universe.

Why does a football spiral? How do some athletes jump so high? The answer is science! The Secret Science of Sports helps kids better understand concepts of science, technology, engineering, and math through the sports they love to play and watch.

The latest developments in physics have the potential to radically revise our understanding of the world: its makeup, its evolution, and the fundamental forces that drive its operation. Knocking on Heaven's Door is an exhilarating and accessible overview of these developments and an impassioned argument for the significance of science. There could be no better guide than Lisa Randall.

In Search of a Theory of Everything takes listeners on an adventurous journey through space and time on a quest for a unified "theory of everything" by means of a rare and agile interplay between the natural philosophies of influential ancient Greek thinkers and the laws of modern physics.

Como una invitación a descubrir que la física y la matemática son materias cautivantes y no un mal recuerdo escolar, Andrés Gomberoff nos presenta este libro en el que todo lector podrá compartir el placer y la pasión por la ciencia.

Der Siegeszug der klassischen Physik hat die Welt entzaubert. Die Realität, so die gängige Auffassung, wird von Naturgesetzen geregelt, die letztlich alles erklären können. Doch dieses Bild ist falsch. Viele grundlegende Fragen sind noch immer unbeantwortet. Und die neuesten Erkenntnisse der Quantentheorie weisen sogar darauf hin, dass es eine Realität jenseits von unserer Vorstellung von Raum und Zeit gibt.

«Has cambiado mi vida» es una frase muy común en los emails que Walter Lewin recibe a diario de fans cautivados por sus «videoclases» sobre la física. Durante cuarenta y tres años como profesor en el Instituto Tecnológico de Massachusetts, Lewin ha perfeccionado su peculiar arte de enseñar y de hacer de la física algo divertido. En Por amor a la física Lewin responde a preguntas curiosas y nos acompaña en un viaje maravilloso abriendo nuestros ojos a la belleza y al poder con los que la física puede revelar los mecanismos ocultos del mundo que nos rodea.

The real nature of time is still a mystery, even after thousands of years of philosophers and scientists analyzing it and proposing theories about it. Prophecy has existed for most of humanity’s time on Earth, and there is a lot of reason to think that seeing the future does reveal some of what happens and is about to happen. I also wrote two books on this subject, including the history of prophecy and my own experiences.

Teletransporte, máquinas del tiempo, campos de fuerza y naves intergalácticas: ¿materia de ciencia ficción o tecnologías potencialmente disponibles en el futuro? Inspirado por los mundos fantásticos de H.G. Wells, Star Trek o La guerra de las galaxias, el prestigioso físico teórico y divulgador Michio Kaku lanza una mirada inteligente, seria y a menudo sorprendente a lo que nuestra actual comprensión de las leyes del universo nos permite vislumbrar en el futuro.

Viajes en el tiempo, agujeros negros, motores de antimateria, aceleración del universo... La física moderna suena a película, pero es ciencia, de la de verdad verdadera, la que nos cuenta una historia fascinante de descubrimientos y sueños cumplidos, de luchas y disputas, y de pasión por comprender la naturaleza. Este divertido audio libro te ayudará a entender de una vez por todas lo que nos rodea, desde lo más pequeño a lo más grande, y a saber que El bosón de Higgs no te va a hacer la cama, ¡ni aunque le insistas!

In Signposts to God, particle physicist Peter Bussey introduces listeners to the mysteries of modern physics and astronomy. Authored in clear, accessible prose, Bussey provides a primer on topics such as the laws of nature, quantum physics, fine-tuning, and current cosmological models. Bussey argues that, far from ruling out a divine creator, modern physics and astronomy present us with compelling signposts to God. The more we know about the cosmos and our presence in it, the more plausible belief in God becomes.

Marie Curie, Max Planck, Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrödinger e Albert Einstein não só revolucionaram a física, mas redefiniram nosso mundo e a realidade em que vivemos. Em A era da incerteza, Tobias Hürter reconstrói a época de ouro desse campo do saber através da história de seus heróis e heroínas deslumbrantes, imperfeitos e inesquecíveis.

PSIence introduces readers to the latest discoveries in quantum physics and New Science that may explain the existence of paranormal phenomena - UFOs, ghosts, poltergeists, mysterious apparitions, time anomalies, the Bermuda Triangle, energy vortices - and psychic abilities such as ESP, telekinesis, remote viewing, and recalling past lives.

The idea that the world is an illusion that betrays its real origin has a long tradition and can be found in the writings of Hindu rishis, early Greek philosophers, and Christian Gnostics. What is perhaps surprising is to find such a rich literature on the subject in neuroscience and quantum physics. The latest, and perhaps most provocative, idea to gain some currency in varying scientific disciplines is the hypothesis that the universe is the result of a computational simulation....

Parents and parents-to-be are bombarded with information, from what to expect to what to do (and not to do) when it happens. But what they may not realize is that from the chemistry of pregnancy tests to the vacuum physics of breastfeeding, there is fascinating science at the heart of every aspect of creating and raising a new human.

What keeps objects from floating out of your hand? What if your feet drifted away from the ground? What stops everything from floating into space? Gravity. Author Jason Chin takes this complex subject and makes it brilliantly accessible to young listeners in this innovative book. His expansive but simple narrative does justice to the subject at hand, looking at the concept of gravity in a whole new way. From the redwoods to the oceans to a small island, he now takes us to outer space in this thoroughly researched, exceptional addition to his body of children's nonfiction.

Whether you're a curious science enthusiast, a student of physics, or simply an open-minded seeker of knowledge, The Quantumania World invites you to embark on a journey that will transform your perception of reality. Prepare to be captivated by the beauty and mysteries of the Quantumania Realm as you explore the forefront of scientific exploration and uncover the wonders that lie beyond our everyday experience.

In the last 350-odd years, the international “scientific community” has come to be the bastion of consensus and concerted action, especially in the face of two global crises: disastrous climate change, and a deadly pandemic. How did “the scientific community” come into existence, and why does it work? Rivals is an attempt to answer these questions in the form of a brief historical overview, from the late seventeenth to the early twenty-first centuries.

This fourth work aims to underline the perpetuating millennial mistake which consists of considering the weight unalterable and unchanging compared to the shape of the body itself. Together with this mistake, it is underlined how two mistakes of the scientific community, made in the last 40 years, are added.
