In physics, force is an influence that may cause a body to accelerate. It may be experienced as a lift, a push, or a pull, and has a magnitude and a direction. The actual acceleration of the body is determined by the vector sum of all forces acting on it (known as net force or resultant force). In a...

In physics, the space surrounding an electric charge has a property called an electric field. This electric field exerts a force on other charged objects. The concept of electric field was introduced by Michael Faraday. The electric field is a vector with SI units of newtons per coulomb (N C-1) or, ...

In physics, a magnetic field is that part of the electromagnetic field that exerts a force on a moving charge. A magnetic field can be caused either by another moving charge (i.e., by an electric current) or by a changing electric field. The magnetic field is a vector quantity, and has SI units of t...
In chemistry, the Henderson-Hasselbalch (frequently misspelled Henderson-Hasselbach) equation describes the derivation of pH as a measure of acidity (using pKa, the acid dissociation constant) in biological and chemical systems. The equation is also useful for estimating the pH of a buffer solution ...

Since the photon is massless, the photon moves at c \! (the speed of light in empty space) and its energy E \! and momentum \mathbf{p} are related by E = c \, p \!, where p \! is the magnitude of the momentum. For comparison, the corresponding equation for particles with an invariant mass m \! would...

The modern concept of the photon was developed gradually (1905–17) by Albert Einstein to explain experimental observations that did not fit the classical wave model of light. In particular, the photon model accounted for the frequency dependence of light's energy, and explained the ability of matter...

In modern physics, the photon is the elementary particle responsible for electromagnetic phenomena. It mediates electromagnetic interactions and makes up all forms of light. The photon has zero invariant mass and travels at the constant speed c, the speed of light in empty space. However, in the pre...
