  2. Scientific law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_law

    Many laws take mathematical forms, and thus can be stated as an equation; for example, the law of conservation of energy can be written as =, where is the total amount of energy in the universe. Similarly, the first law of thermodynamics can be written as =, and Newton's second law can be written as =.

  3. Universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe

    The physical universe is defined as all of space and time [a] (collectively referred to as spacetime) and their contents. [10] Such contents comprise all of energy in its various forms, including electromagnetic radiation and matter, and therefore planets, moons, stars, galaxies, and the contents of intergalactic space.

    The Laws of the Universe (Japanese: UFO学園の秘密 Hepburn: UFO Gakuen no Himitsu) is a Japanese animated film series consisting of four films, produced by HS Pictures Studio. The first film in the series, titled The Laws of the Universe: Part 0 , was released on October 10, 2015. [ 1 ]

  5. The Road to Reality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road_to_Reality

    The Road to Reality: A Complete Guide to the Laws of the Universe is a book on modern physics by the British mathematical physicist Roger Penrose, published in 2004. [1] [2] It covers the basics of the Standard Model of particle physics, discussing general relativity and quantum mechanics, and discusses the possible unification of these two theories.

  6. Hubble's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble's_law

    The mathematical derivation of an idealized Hubble's law for a uniformly expanding universe is a fairly elementary theorem of geometry in 3-dimensional Cartesian/Newtonian coordinate space, which, considered as a metric space, is entirely homogeneous and isotropic (properties do not vary with location or direction). Simply stated, the theorem ...

  7. Theory of everything - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_everything

    One view is the hard reductionist position that the theory of everything is the fundamental law and that all other theories that apply within the universe are a consequence of the theory of everything. Another view is that emergent laws, which govern the behavior of complex systems, should be seen as equally

  8. Absolute space and time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_space_and_time

    The laws of physics transform from one inertial frame to another according to Galilean relativity, leading to the following objections to absolute space, as outlined by Milutin Blagojević: [10] The existence of absolute space contradicts the internal logic of classical mechanics since, according to Galilean principle of relativity, none of the ...

  9. General relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_relativity

    As it is constructed using tensors, general relativity exhibits general covariance: its laws—and further laws formulated within the general relativistic framework—take on the same form in all coordinate systems. [50] Furthermore, the theory does not contain any invariant geometric background structures, i.e. it is background independent.
