    Advanced Placement (AP) Human Geography (also known as AP Human Geo, AP Geography, APHG, AP HuGe, APHug, AP Human, HuGS, AP HuGo, or HGAP) is an Advanced Placement social studies course in human geography for high school, usually freshmen students in the US, culminating in an exam administered by the College Board.

  3. Dirac large numbers hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_large_numbers_hypothesis

    LNH was Dirac's personal response to a set of large number "coincidences" that had intrigued other theorists of his time. The "coincidences" began with Hermann Weyl (1919), [2] [3] who speculated that the observed radius of the universe, R U, might also be the hypothetical radius of a particle whose rest energy is equal to the gravitational self-energy of the electron:

  4. Universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe

    This metric has only two undetermined parameters. An overall dimensionless length scale factor R describes the size scale of the universe as a function of time (an increase in R is the expansion of the universe), [152] and a curvature index k describes the geometry.

  5. Popper's three worlds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popper's_three_worlds

    These three "worlds" are not proposed as isolated universes but rather are realms or levels within the known universe. Their numbering reflects their temporal order within the known universe and that the later realms emerged as products of developments within the preceding realms. A one-word description of each realm is that World 1 is the material realm, World 2 is the mental realm, and World ...

  6. Big Crunch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Crunch

    The Big Crunch is a hypothetical scenario for the ultimate fate of the universe, in which the expansion of the universe eventually reverses and the universe recollapses, ultimately causing the cosmic scale factor to reach absolute zero, an event potentially followed by a reformation of the universe starting with another Big Bang.

  7. Cosmological horizon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_horizon

    It represents the boundary between the observable and the unobservable regions of the universe, so its distance at the present epoch defines the size of the observable universe. Due to the expansion of the universe, it is not simply the age of the universe times the speed of light, as in the Hubble horizon, but rather the speed of light ...

  8. Cognitive geography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_geography

    Cognitive geography is an interdisciplinary study of cognitive science and geography.It aims to understand how humans view space, place, and environment. It involves formalizing factors that influence our spatial cognition to create a more effective representation of space.

  9. Big Bang - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Bang

    The Big Bang is a physical theory that describes how the universe expanded from an initial state of high density and temperature. [1] The concept of an expanding universe was scientifically originated by physicist Alexander Friedmann in 1922 with the mathematical derivation of the Friedmann equations.
