Chap. 4 빛의 마술

Light

“Light or visible light is electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye, and is responsible for the sense of sight. Visible light has wavelength in a range from about 380 nanometres to about 740 nm, with a frequency range of about 405 THz to 790 THz. In physics, the term light sometimes refers to electromagnetic radiation of any wavelength, whether visible or not.”

Chap. 3 뉴튼의 사과

May the Force Be with You

“The F, the m and the a in Newton’s formula are very important concepts in mechanics. The F is force, a push or pull exerted on an object. The m is mass, a measure of how much matter is in an object. And the a is acceleration, which describes how an object’s velocity changes over time. Velocity, which is similar to speed, is the distance an object travels in a certain amount of time.”

Chap. 2 개미와 고래

We can understand certain phenomena without actually doing the detailed calculations needed for a complete solution. Galileo Galilei first pointed out that similar objects can be related by scaling laws. These laws explain why an elephant cannot look like an enlarged mouse, why a giant human necessarily has certain problems, and why there are ultimate limits to the sizes of animals, plants and structures. This simple idea is called dimensional analysis, one of the physicist’s favorite trick. In this chapter, we will explore its stories and principles behind it.

첫번째 토론 수업에서는 각자 경험했던 “호기심”을 주제로 논의를 진행하고자 합니다. 평소에 본인의 호기심을 자극했던 또는 ‘신기하다고’ 생각했던 현상을 하나 골라서 그 이유를 찾아봅시다.
