  • The ST System of Units Leading the Way to Unification
    The ST system of units Leading the way to unification © Xavier Borg B.Eng.(Hons.) - Blaze Labs Research First electronic edition published as part of the Unified Theory Foundations (Feb 2005) [1] Abstract This paper shows that all measurable quantities in physics can be represented as nothing more than a number of spatial dimensions differentiated by a number of temporal dimensions and vice versa. To convert between the numerical values given by the space-time system of units and the conventional SI system, one simply multiplies the results by specific dimensionless constants. Once the ST system of units presented here is applied to any set of physics parameters, one is then able to derive all laws and equations without reference to the original theory which presented said relationship. In other words, all known principles and numerical constants which took hundreds of years to be discovered, like Ohm's Law, energy mass equivalence, Newton's Laws, etc.. would simply follow naturally from the spatial and temporal dimensions themselves, and can be derived without any reference to standard theoretical background. Hundreds of new equations can be derived using the ST table included in this paper. The relation between any combination of physical parameters, can be derived at any instant. Included is a step by step worked example showing how to derive any free space constant and quantum constant. 1 Dimensions and dimensional analysis One of the most powerful mathematical tools in science is dimensional analysis. Dimensional analysis is often applied in different scientific fields to simplify a problem by reducing the number of variables to the smallest number of "essential" parameters.

  • Should Physical Laws Be Unit-Invariant?
    Should physical laws be unit-invariant? 1. Introduction In a paper published in this journal in 2015, Sally Riordan reviews a recent debate about whether fundamental constants are really “constant”, or whether they may change over cosmological timescales. Her context is the impending redefinition of the kilogram and other units in terms of fundamental constants – a practice which is seen as more “objective” than defining units in terms of human artefacts. She focusses on one particular constant, the fine structure constant (α), for which some evidence of such a variation has been reported. Although α is not one of the fundamental constants involved in the proposed redefinitions, it is linked to some which are, so that there is a clear cause for concern. One of the authors she references is Michael Duff, who presents an argument supporting his assertion that dimensionless constants are more fundamental than dimensioned ones; this argument employs various systems of so-called “natural units”. [see Riordan (2015); Duff (2004)] An interesting feature of this discussion is that not only Riordan herself, but all the papers she cites, use a formula for α that is valid only in certain systems of units, and would not feature in a modern physics textbook. This violates another aspect of objectivity – namely, the idea that our physical laws should be expressed in such a way that they are independent of the particular units we choose to use; they should be unit-invariant. In this paper I investigate the place of unit-invariance in the history of physics, together with its converse, unit-dependence, which we will find is a common feature of some branches of physics, despite the fact that, as I will show in an analysis of Duff’s argument, unit-dependent formulae can lead to erroneous conclusions.

A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1990 To my grandparents, Carrie B. and W. D. Owens ACKNOWLEDGMENTS It would be impossible to adequately acknowledge all of those who have contributed in one way or another to my “graduate school experience.” However, there are a few who have played such a pivotal role that I feel it appropriate to take this opportunity to thank them: • Dr. Michael Zemer for his enthusiasm despite my more than occasional lack thereof. • Dr. Yngve Ohm whose strong leadership and standards of excellence make QTP a truly unique environment for students, postdocs, and faculty alike. • Dr. Jack Sabin for coming to the rescue and providing me a workplace in which to finish this dissertation. I will miss your bookshelves which I hope are back in order before you read this. • Dr. William Weltner who provided encouragement and seemed to have confidence in me, even when I did not. • Joanne Bratcher for taking care of her boys and keeping things running smoothly at QTP-not to mention Sanibel. Of course, I cannot overlook those friends and colleagues with whom I shared much over the past years: • Alan Salter, the conservative conscience of the clubhouse and a good friend. • Bill Parkinson, the liberal conscience of the clubhouse who, along with his family, Bonnie, Ryan, Danny, and Casey; helped me keep things in perspective and could always be counted on for a good laugh.

  • Physics and Technology System of Units for Electrodynamics
    PHYSICS AND TECHNOLOGY SYSTEM OF UNITS FOR ELECTRODYNAMICS∗ M. G. Ivanov† Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology Dolgoprudny, Russia Abstract The contemporary practice is to favor the use of the SI units for electric circuits and the Gaussian CGS system for electromagnetic field. A modification of the Gaussian system of units (the Physics and Technology System) is suggested. In the Physics and Technology System the units of measurement for electrical circuits coincide with SI units, and the equations for the electromagnetic field are almost the same form as in the Gaussian system. The XXIV CGMP (2011) Resolution ¾On the possible future revision of the International System of Units, the SI¿ provides a chance to initiate gradual introduction of the Physics and Technology System as a new modification of the SI. Keywords: SI, International System of Units, electrodynamics, Physics and Technology System of units, special relativity. 1. Introduction. One and a half century dispute The problem of choice of units for electrodynamics dates back to the time of M. Faraday (1822–1831) and J. Maxwell (1861–1873). Electrodynamics acquired its final form only after geometrization of special relativity by H. Minkowski (1907–1909). The improvement of contemporary (4-dimentional relativistic covariant) formulation of electrodynamics and its implementation in practice of higher education stretched not less than a half of century. Overview of some systems of units, which are used in electrodynamics could be found, for example, in books [2, 3] and paper [4]. Legislation and standards of many countries recommend to use in science and education The International System of Units (SI).

  • Capacitor 1 Farad P6-8012
    WWW.ARBORSCI.COM Capacitor 1 Farad P6-8012 BACKGROUND: A capacitor is a device which has the ability to store an electrical charge. Traditional capacitors are made of two pieces of metal, called plates, separated by an insulator called the dielectric. The capacitance of a capacitor depends primarily on the size of the plates, the distance between the plates, and the permeability of the dielectric to electric fields. Moving the plates closer together and enlarging the plates are two ways of increasing capacitance. Capacitance is measured in Farads. One Farad is the capacitance of a capacitor which can hold one Coulomb of charge (6.25 x 1018 charged particles) when a voltage of one volt is connected across its leads. Most capacitors are measured in microfarads (10-6 Farads) or picofarads (10-12 Farads). Fairly large capacitors (on the order of several thousand microfarads) can be achieved when one plate is simply oxidized and pressed against another plate. The very thin layer of oxidized metal acts as a dielectric: the distance between plates is greatly reduced and the capacitance increased accordingly. HOW DO THEY DO IT? The NEC Supercap from Arbor Scientific has a rating of one Farad. How do they get so much capacitance in such a tiny package? It’s done with activated carbon and sulfuric acid. It is believed that at every interface there exists an array of oriented dipoles (atoms or molecules with their ends oppositely charged). When an electric field is applied across this array, it orients these dipoles in such a way as to cause this layer to act as a dielectric (a very thin dielectric on the order of one or two molecules thick).
