This department deals with science of matter and energy and of interactions between the two, grouped in traditional fields such as acoustics, optics, mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism, as well as in modern extensions including atomic and nuclear physics, cryogenics, solid-state physics, particle physics, and plasma physics. Over the years Edutech have been enabling inquiry-based learning and exposing students to the tools of modern science and technology careers related to physics.
Mechanics
A branch of classical physics that deals with particles that is either at rest or is moving with velocities significantly less than the speed of light. It can also be defined as a branch of science which deals with the motion of and forces on objects.
Waves and Optics
Electromagnetism
A study of the electromagnetic force which is a type of physical interaction that occurs between electrically charged particles is Electromagnetism, which is basically a result of intermolecular forces between individual molecules in matter.
Thermodynamics
A branch of physics concerned with heat and temperature and their relation to energy and work. Initially, thermodynamics was applied to heat engines, to study the thermal properties of their ‘working materials’ such as steam, in an effort to increase the efficiency and power output of engines.
Quantum Mechanics
A fundamental branch of physics which deals with physical phenomena at nanoscopic scales, where the action is on the order of the Planck constant and it also provides a mathematical description of much of the dual particle-like and wave-like behavior and interactions of energy and matter.
Spectroscopic Instruments
These are the devices used to study the spectral composition, with respect to wavelength, of electromagnetic radiation in the optical region, which extends from 10–3 to 103 micrometers (μ,m) , to ascertain the spectral characteristics of radiators and of objects that interact with radiation, and to perform spectrochemical analysis.
