Chemistry is governed by the law of physics.

Are high tech devices like GPS and circuit boards governed by Newtonian physics or The Theory of Relativity.

When we look at the very basis of all science (that is quantum physics and the math which underlies it) we see that everything truly is governed by randomness and probabilities, not by determinism.

Specifically, during the past two years, he has been refining a proof that no matter what laws of physics govern a universe, there are inevitably facts about the universe that its inhabitants can not learn by experiment or predict with a computation.

A revealing new book, Inside Graduate Admissions: Merit, Diversity, and Faculty Gatekeeping by University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, education researcher Julie Posselt, investigates the processes at 10 top - ranked departments — including astrophysics, biology, physics, economics, linguistics, political science, and sociology — and examines the values and practices that appear to govern them.

Strictly speaking, the term particle is a misnomer because the dynamics of particle physics are governed by quantum mechanics.

When talking about parallel universes, I find it useful to distinguish between four different levels: Level I (other such regions far away in space where the apparent laws of physics are the same, but where history played out differently because things started out differently), Level II (regions of space where even the apparent laws of physics are different), Level III (parallel worlds elsewhere in the so - called Hilbert space where quantum reality plays out), and Level IV (totally disconnected realities governed by different mathematical equations).

Quantum Dot A cluster of atoms so small that its electronic properties are governed by the laws of quantum physics.

But if that were true, the very laws of physics that allow us to devise such reality - checking technology may have little to do with the fundamental rules that govern the meta - universe inhabited by our simulators.

Entanglement is not possible in classical physics, so the nature of the system must be governed by quantum randomness.

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.

Many problems in physics are difficult to untangle because their underlying behaviour, governed by the intricate rules of quantum mechanics, is too complex for computers to simulate.

The normally aspirated flat six obeys throttle orders as if it were governed by a telemetric mastermind, the seven - speed PDK dual - clutch gearbox hammers through the ratios like a rapid - fire weapon, stability control works reliably in minimum interference mode, the steering does its best not to let the driver feel its electro - mechanical origins, and the brakes snarl at their ABSolute limit whenever optimism challenges the law of physics.

Nate conflates problems of prediction in the realm of human behavior — where there are no fundamental governing «laws» and any «predictions» are potentially laden with subjective and untestable assumptions — with problems such as climate change, which are governed by laws of physics, like the greenhouse effect, that are true whether or not you choose to believe them.»

The ocean uptake physics are governed by ocean circulation, which we know a lot about by measuring the carbon - 14 distribution in the ocean.

The lines of evidence and analysis supporting the mainstream position on climate change are diverse and robust — embracing a huge body of direct measurements by a variety of methods in a wealth of locations on the Earth's surface and from space, solid understanding of the basic physics governing how energy flow in the atmosphere interacts with greenhouse gases, insights derived from the reconstruction of causes and consequences of millions of years of natural climatic variations, and the results of computer models that are increasingly capable of reproducing the main features of Earth's climate with and without human influences.

EVERY last bit of physics is governed by quasi-equilibrium assumptions.

Although Einstein said that past, present and future were a stubborn illusion — the Sun is 3 dimensional and evolves in the present governed by real but currently incomprehensible physics.

To claim that the global avg temp might as well have decreased 0.7 degrees as increased 0.7 degrees since preindustrial times flies in the face of basic physics, namely that the planetary temperature is governed (a.o.) by the planetary energy balance, and that this balance has substantially changed over the past 100 or so years due in large part to anthropogenic climate forcings, with a bit of help from natural climate forcings.

A copyright protects expressions of a design or derivations of a copyright, but will not generally protect a functional design where the design parameters are governed by the laws of physics.

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.
