In the calculations, the team combined classical physics to describe the nuclei and electrons that sit in the plane with quantum physics to describe electrons floating above.

If we try to Imagine that there must be something solid beneath the process, then this is because we are still being tricked by the assumptions of common sense and classical physics upon which materialism rests.

I was always fascinated by physics, especially modern physics as it moved away from the mechanistic world of classical physics into the quantum world, and I found mathematics, especially pure mathematics, a very demanding and challenging subject that requires considerable powers of abstract thought and reasoning.

Progress seems transparently clear when we read it backwards (and selectively) from something like Newton's Principia to the various steps that made classical physics possible, the various discoveries of Copernicus, Galileo, Tycho, and Kepler that led to the fullness of Newton's theory.

Of course, by the time we get to the domain of classical physics there is such an overwhelming structure of memory that it is very well determined, but even then perhaps not absolutely.

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.

Henri Bergson is credited with a pertinent critique of the mechanistic determinism usually associated with nineteenth - century classical physics.

Classical physics appears to provide no way in which an explanation can be reached because it requires a «collection» of particles which constrains individual particles in a manner not deducible from their individual behavior.

Classical physics carved the universe up into bits of substances called particles, each one independent of its neighbors.

As Bergson said, years before it collapsed, classical physics simply could not be literally true.

Classical physics mandates that the child's legs will move faster than her hands around the circle, since her legs must travel further to make a complete turn.

For those not involved in the field, this world may seem trifling, but recently, researchers from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) have theoretically described two quantum states that are extraordinary in both the physics that define them and their visual appeal: a complex quantum system that simulates classical physics and a spellbinding necklace - like state.

Some researchers believe there must be some cut - off point where classical physics takes over, such as the point where the weak pull of gravity overwhelms other forces (in fact, gravity's effect on neutrons was recently measured).
