Topic 3 Waves - Physics Resources

Total Internal Reflection: Consider a ray of light passing from glass to air. If the ray is along the normal then it will not refract. When the angle of incidence is small; we get a weak internally reflected ray (light grey) and strong refracted ray (dark grey). As we increase the angle of incidence, the angle of refraction also increases.

Topic 2 Thermal Physics - Physics Resources

Matter is made up of atoms and molecules, which may only be seen by electronic microscope. Kinetic Molecular Theory of Matter: The kinetic molecular theory explains the forces between molecules and the energy that they possess. This theory has 3 basic assumptions. 1. Matter is made up of tiny small particles (atoms, molecules or ions).

Fundamentals of Gas Turbine Engines

In the 1680s Sir Isaac Newton described the laws of motion (discussed in GSE3/GSM3, volume 1, chapter 4). All devices that use the theory of jet propulsion are based on these laws. Newton’s steam wagon is an example of the reac-tion principle (fig. 1-4). In 1791 John Barber, an Englishman, sub-mitted the first patent for a design that used the

Sir Isaac Newton (1643 – 1727) is often considered the greatest scientist of all time. Defining laws of motion and universal gravitation up until the 20th century, he provided the framework for physics. He also made enormous contributions to optics (the science of light) and to mathematics. In mathematics, Newton invented calculus. ¶3

Newton’s Laws of Motion, 1642 to 1727. English scientist Sir Isaac Newton condensed all rocket science into three elegant scientific laws. Published in Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica his laws, previously understood intuitively by early rock-eteers, provided the foundation for all modern rocket science. (The “Rocket
