Sentences with phrase «between classical physics»

Intuitively I consider that the dichotomy between classical physics (for macro events) and quantum phsics (for sub-atomic particle events) is false.

In 1964, physicist John Bell took on this seeming disparity between classical physics and quantum mechanics, stating that if the universe is based on classical physics, the measurement of one entangled particle should not affect the measurement of the other — a theory, known as locality, in which there is a limit to how correlated two particles can be.

Thus the Inconsistency between Bohr's quantum theory and the assumptions of classical physics worried some physicists very much when it was first proposed, whereas others thought this inconsistency of little importance compared to the accuracy of the predictions which it yielded.

There will usually be enough overlap between the assumptions of the two parties that a common core of observations - statements can be accepted by both — even, I would argue, in a change as far - reaching as that from classical physics to relativity.

Historians of philosophy can easily demonstrate how this Kantian distinction of an unavailable noumenal world from a vivid, but frothy, phenomenal one, is erected upon the distinction in classical physics between primary and secondary qualities.

It applies in vastly diverse contexts; it even helps bridge the divide between classical and quantum physics.

While the strong sigma or covalent bonds were explained by the new theories of quantum mechanics, hydrogen bonds were seen as nothing more than an electrostatic attraction between charged particles and were explained according the principles of classical physics.

This explanation is reminiscent of the quantum explanation of why — in classical physics — light always takes the shortest path between any two points.

«Physicists blur the line between classical and quantum physics by connecting chaos and entanglement.»

Physicists have since struggled to establish a clear boundary between our everyday world — which is governed by classical physics — and this strangeness of the quantum world.

The real value of the experiment may be in probing the boundary between quantum mechanics and classical physics.

Somewhere between molecules and pears lies a boundary where the strangeness of quantum behavior ends and the familiarity of classical physics begins.

«Principles of Mechanics: Fundamental University Physics» has been designed to provide students with an invaluable go - to resource on classical mechanics that bridges the gaps between basic and more advanced learning.

Thus the concept of substance in classical physics combined the Scholastic concept of substance with the distinction between primary and secondary qualities.

If I may use an analogy from your expertise, it's as if, in an engineering issue governed by classical physics — say the construction of a bridge between Vancouver and Victoria — you claimed, during a lecture on eng» g principles, that it could be readily and cheaply done because of some principle that you've recently discovered, through your own investigations, which happens to be contrary to one of Newton's law's.
