In the second half of the 19th century, physical views on the nature of the propagation of light and some other phenomena more and more clearly began to encounter difficulties. They were connected with the ethereal concept dominating in science. To resolve the accumulated contradictions in the 1880s, a series of experiments was set up, very complex and subtle for those times - Michelson's experiments to study the dependence of the speed of light on the direction of motion of the observer.

Plankton, nekton, benthos - three groups into which all aquatic living creatures can be divided. Plankton is formed by algae and small animals that swim near the surface of the water. Nekton is made up of animals that can actively swim and dive in the water. Benthos are organisms found in the lowest layers of aquatic habitats. It includes bottom-dwelling animals, including many echinoderms, demersal fish, crustaceans, mollusks, annelids, and so on. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

Stimulated emission, induced emission - the generation of a new photon during the transition of a quantum system (atom, molecule, nucleus, etc.) between two states (from a higher to a lower energy level) under the influence of an inducing photon, the energy of which is equal to the difference between the energies of these states. The created photon has the same energy, momentum, phase, polarization, and propagation direction as the inducing photon (which is not absorbed). Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12

GDP deflator is a special price index created to determine the aggregate level of prices for services and goods (consumer basket) for a specific, single period.

One of the most important inventions of the Middle Ages is the development of the microscope. With this device, it was possible to examine structures invisible to the eye. It helped shape the principles of cell theory and created prospects for the development of microbiology. Moreover, the first microscope became the driving force behind the creation of new highly sensitive microscopic devices. They also became tools, thanks to which man was able to look at the atom.

There are 2 blocks of mass in a car: sprung and unsprung. The first characterizes the totality of parts located above the suspension, and the second is the wheels and all the parts adjacent to them. Both parameters play an important role in the dynamics of the car, but usually the emphasis is on the sprung mass, which is many times greater than the unsprung mass. This approach is very erroneous, since the wheel part has a strong influence on the operation of the car. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12
