Galileo Galilei

Per-Olov Löwdin – father of quantum chemistry. 5.

Galileo Galilei: Father of the Scientific Revolution, Classical Physics, & Modern Astronomy.

Isaac Newton

Classical mechanics was traditionally divided into three main branches: Statics, the study of equilibrium and its relation to forces. Dynamics, the study of motion and its relation to forces.

It deals with the motion of particles and general system of particles. There are many branches of classical mechanics, such as: statics, dynamics, kinematics, continuum mechanics (which includes fluid mechanics), statistical mechanics, etc.

There are Two Main Branches of Physics, Classical Physics and Modern Physics.

Top Ten Hardest Physics Topics

• Quantum Mechanics. Well, Niels Bohr said that anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it.
• Electromagnetism.
• Projectile Motion.
• String Theory.
• Electronics.
• General Relativity.
• Relative Velocity.
• Radiation.

Classical Mechanics

Terms in this set (7)

• Mechanics. Motion and its causes; interactions between objects.
• Thermodynamics. Heat and temperature.
• Vibrations and Waves Phenomena. Specific types of repetitive motions- springs, pendulums, sound.
• Optics. Light (including mirrors), lenses, colors.
• Electromagnetism.
• Relativity.
• Quantum Mechanics.

‘Fusis’ is the original name of the word Physics.

These five great physics concentrations are some of the most popular choices for those majoring in physics.

1. Mathematical Physics. This is a field where the use of mathematic methods are applied to physics in order to solve problems.
2. Astrophysics.
3. Biological Physics.
4. Advanced Physics.
5. Medical Physics.

A physicist can certainly become a billionaire. Elon Musk is the best example; his net worth is 23.6 Billion. Most of Musk’s success is due to his education in physics; He holds bachelors degrees in both Economics and Physics from the University of Pennsylvania.

Common job titles for physics and engineering physics bachelor’s degree recipients include:

• Accelerator Operator.
• Applications Engineer.
• Data Analyst.
• Design Engineer.
• High School Physics Teacher.
• IT Consultant.
• Lab Technician.
• Laser Engineer.

Highest Paying Jobs With a Bachelor’s Degree

A few scientists have gone into business and got rich that way. Only if they have a talent for business, and mostly not for their own discoveries. Scientists tend to be rather badly paid, because they love their work and will accept lower salaries than they would get elsewhere. Not true.

Check out our list of the top 10 highest paying science careers for inspiration to guide your own science career journey.

1. James Watson, $20 Billion. According to Wealthy Gorilla, James Watson is the richest scientist in the world as he has a net worth of $20 billion. Watson is a biologist, geneticist, and zoologist who is best known for his work on the double helix structure of the DNA molecule.

“According to Burtch Works’ 2014 study of salaries for data scientists… those responsible for a team of 1-3 earn [a median salary of] $140,000 and those responsible for a team of 10 or more earn $232,500. Data scientists earning more than doctors (Download the full reports).

So at the low end of the spectrum, the lowest paid doctor will likely make 20x more than a typical stage actor, and roughly 10x times more than a typical film/TV actor.

According to the BLS, medical doctors which include both medical doctors (MDs) and doctors of osteopathic medicine (DOs) earned an annual median salary of $208,000 per year in 2016. Lawyers, according to the BLS, had an annual median salary of $118,160 in 2016, a significant difference between them of $89,840.

An average CA will earn more than an average doctor.

You being a CA can marry a Doctor , but compatibility is questionable unless there is perfect understanding & a sense of sacrifice from either side.

Which is more difficult: CA or MBBS? Both CA and MBBS are almost equally difficult – you have to work hard and study extensively in order to complete both these degrees.

CA is the better carrer than the Doctor. CA is the high proffesional job now a days. That prson has a better career who excels in his/her field and this is irrespective of the field itself. For excelling in a field one needs to have a personal interest and a flair for the job activities of that field.

Officially A CA earns 3 times the IAS. A corrupt IAS earns in crores. Even a pretty laid back IAS can earn upwards of 50–60 lpa. A CA earns 7–10 lpa initially and it goes up from there.
