... of many different physical processes. For example in quantum electrodynamics (QED) exactly two independent divergent expressions appear, one of which occurs when we calculate the correction to the mass of the electron, the other of which occurs when we calculate the correction to its charge. To make ...

... 1. The number of photoelectrons emitted per second depends on the intensity of incident radiation (number of quanta incident – discovered later) 2. Speed of photoelectrons varies from zero to v max , which depends on the frequency of the incident radiation but not on its intensity 3. For a given met ...

... The fact that the scattering law was obeyed so precisely, even for large angles of scattering, meant that the inverse-square law of electrostatic repulsion held good to very small distances indeed. The nucleus had to have size less than about 10−14 m, very much less than the sizes of atoms, which ar ...

History of physics
Physics (from the Ancient Greek φύσις physis meaning ""nature"") is the fundamental branch of science that developed out of the study of nature and philosophy known, until around the end of the 19th century, as ""natural philosophy"". Today, physics is ultimately defined as the study of matter, energy and the relationships between them. Physics is, in some senses, the oldest and most basic pure science; its discoveries find applications throughout the natural sciences, since matter and energy are the basic constituents of the natural world. The other sciences are generally more limited in their scope and may be considered branches that have split off from physics to become sciences in their own right. Physics today may be divided loosely into classical physics and modern physics.
