Parent topics
- International System of Units [r]: Metric unit system based on the metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, mole and candela. [e]
Subtopics
- Speed of light [r]: A physical constant c describing the speed of electromagnetic radiation in vacuum. In the International System of Units the metre is the distance light travels in classical vacuum in 1/c seconds, using the defined value c = c0 ≡ 299 792 458 m/s (exact). [e]
- Metre (unit) [r]: Unit of length; one of the seven SI base units. [e]
- Second (physics) [r]: Unit of time; one of the seven SI base units. [e]}
- Electric constant [r]: A physical constant in the International System of Units (SI) relating capacitance to area in classical vacuum with an exact value ε0 = 107/(4πc02) F/m, c0 being the defined value for the speed of light in classical vacuum in the SI units. [e]
- Magnetic constant [r]: A physical constant in the International System of Units (SI) relating mechanical force and electric current in classical vacuum with a defined value μ0 = 4π × 10−7 N/A2. [e]
- Vacuum (partial) [r]: A realizable vacuum with a gaseous pressure that is much less than atmospheric. [e]
- Vacuum (quantum electrodynamic) [r]: The term quantum electrodynamic vacuum, or QED vacuum, refers to the ground state of the electromagnetic field, which is subject to fluctuations about a dormant zero average-field condition. [e]
- Special relativity [r]: Theory of the effects of motion on observations of things such as length, time, mass and energy. The theory is based on the postulates that all laws of physics are the same in all inertial reference systems, and that the vacuum speed of light is a universal constant, independent of the speed of the source. [e]
- Patent [r]: Grant made by a government that confers upon the creator of an invention the sole right to make, use, and sell that invention for a set period of time. [e]
