Physics

Reason for this post is ofcourse higgs boson. I was reminded of Physics after a long time soon after this invention.

Physics has always been my favorite subject since my school days. I liked the way Newton and Einstein explained Gravity and relativity respectively in a simpler terminology.

PS: I can recite newtons law of motion even if you wake me up in the middle of the night.

Physics is the most beautiful thing which explains the things that are already existing in a way human understands.

I had always liked to understand how the universe was formed. Black Holes, Red Giants and white Dwarfs were all my favorite topics in my school days.

Another most interesting thing in physics is the practicals which we do in our school. I used to be very poor in my initial days and have improved subsequently as the time progressed.

There was an experiment in my school days to find out Accelerator due to gravity(g) using simple pendulum. We all knew the correct answer of this is always 9.8 msec.

Hence i manipulated my readings of the experiment and brought the final output to 9.8 msec (per my experiment it should have been only 9.6 m/sec) in order to please my teacher that i have done the experiment accurately.

Few months passed and a new chapter came up in my book which explained how Acceleration due to gravity(g)  used to change based on latitude, longitude and altitude. and g value is always 9.8 msecs only in equator.  

Then i suddenly thought about my simple pendulum on how I manipulated (g) of simple pendulum.

I am located in Neyveli which is not the equator and it is certainly above the equator and it can never be 9.8. and what i have done originally by doing the experiment is the correct answer.

This has taught me a important thing about physics.

Whenever you are getting accurate results for an experiment in physics, it means that You are most likely doing the experiment wrongly.
