Ampère's law
Science; General science
A law of electromagnetism which expresses the contribution of a current element of length dl to the magnetic induction (flux density) B at a point near the current. Ampère's ...
Lenz's law
Science; General science
A law of electromagnetism which states that, whenever there is an induced electromotive force (emf) in a conductor, it is always in such a direction that the current it would ...
Boyle's law
Science; General science
A law of gases which states that at constant temperature the volume of a gas varies inversely with its pressure. This law, formulated by Robert Boyle (1627–1691), can also be ...
Planck's radiation law
Science; General science
A law of physics which gives the spectral energy distribution of the heat radiation emitted from a so-called blackbody at any temperature. Discovered by Max Planck early in the ...
Pascal's law
Science; General science
A law of physics which states that a confined fluid transmits externally applied pressure uniformly in all directions. Blaise Pascal, using the mercury-column barometer of ...
Biot-Savart law
Science; General science
A law of physics which states that the magnetic flux density (magnetic induction) near a long, straight conductor is directly proportional to the current in the conductor and ...
scattering layer
Science; General science
A layer of organisms in the sea which causes sound to scatter and returns echoes. Recordings by sonic devices of echoes from sound scatterers indicate that the scattering ...
