Do you like Physics?

I like Physics.

For example, the Luminosity of a star can be calculated thusly:

L = Surface area * Stefan Boltzman constant * T^4

Where T is the temperature of the star in Kelvins, and the Stefan Boltzman constant is 5.67 * 10^-8

Luminosity tells you how bright a star is.

You can calculate the maximum wavelenth emission of a star as follows:

Max Wavelenth = (2.898 * 10^-3)/T

Where T is the temperature of the emitting body in Kelvins.

I like Physics.

We all fucked up on a test because our teacher is incompetent and does not have any authority over us. It was about the laws of Newton (yes you will laugh at me for the simplicity).

ooh isnt someone a swot?

what kind of job are you goin to get with a pocksy physics a level? seriously such a small amount avaiable

do a proper course like PE or something man instead of trying to be einstein

I'm not really good at maths, and thus didn't enjoy Physics.

Lol. PE is a pussy course for people who aren't clever enough, like Media Studies.

I'm not trying to be Einstein. I am he.

I'm not much of a numbers-equation man myself. I'm more of a writing-analysing-creating person. Today in Physics we learnt about pressure. I got it, but it was kinda boring. So I'm better at history and english. And languages of course.


Give my thoughts form and make them look insightful.

Physics is amazing stuff.
I don't know that much yet, but that's why I'm learning, lol :D

Physics is my favourite form of science :)

Yeah, Chemistry and Biology are worhless pieces of smeg. Physics is where it's at.

Physics is great! You'll be able to predict trajectories of projectiles, Calculate stress on cables and much more.

You're like the master of universe if you understand all the physics behind everything.

Everything is swell.

Well Physics can lead to engineering for a start, for which there are a lot more well-paying jobs than say, someone with an A-level in PE.

You 'tard.

Physics isn't interesting when you're 13, and nor are the equations involved difficult. Even if you're not good with numbers, it can't be that bloody difficult to use the s=d/t relationship.

wait.. if a star is a ball of gass how can you find the surface area!?

I do Physics and Chemistry, and I have to agree. Without Physics, Chemists wouldn't know how atoms are shaped. Wothless bastards.

smeg

They should teach Red Dwarf dialect in English, it might make me more interested in it.

I like physics, I just don't know anything about it. Having people explain it to me on the Science channel is always great entertainment.

Surface area = 4pr^2, where r is the radius of the star, assuming it is a perfect sphere.
