Physics Questions

All automobiles uses satellite communication channel for their GPS devices.

There are approximately 6 trillion miles in a light-year, so the distance we need to go is 6 trillion miles / light-year times. 4 light-years is equal to 24 trillion miles. So, this whole would take 1.2 billion hours. There are 24 hours a day and 365.25 days per year, so this time in years is 137 thousand years.

Protons carry a positive electrical charge, electrons carry a negative electrical charge and neutrons carry no electrical charge at all. The protons and neutrons cluster together in the central part of the atom, called the nucleus, and the electrons 'orbit' the nucleus.

Integrated circuit (IC) is a tiny device that controls electric signals in such electronic equipments as computers and T.V sets. Many integrated circuits contain thousands of electronic parts on a paper - thin chip of silicon. These parts include capacitors, diodes, all in a very small, compact space.

Energy tranfer takes place either by means of Heat or Work only in Thermodynamics.

Heat :: Heat Energy is defined as Energy that can be transferred due to temperature change.

Whereas

Thermal Energy :: Thermal Energy is the Internal Energy stored in the system maintained at a certain Temperature.

In physics, the dynamo theory proposes a mechanism by which a celestial body such as Earth or a star generates a magnetic field.

Earth's crust core contains a large amount of iron and nickel is the evidence of the dynamo theory.

A magnetic domain is a region within a magnetic material in which the magnetization is in a uniform direction. This means that the individual magnetic moments of the atoms are aligned with one another and they point in the same direction.
