Famous physicists
Created theories of general and special relativity
Albert Einstein
Tesla
The SI unit for magnetic field strength
A kilogramme of feathers or a kilogramme of steele
they weigh the same mate, they're both a kilogramme!
age of the moon
yes!
Observed many planets using his improved telescope, created notions of friction, and was also imprisoned in his home by the Catholic church for his scientific promotions.
Galileo Galilei
Scoville
A unit of spiciness, but not an SI unit :^)
a cubic foot of air or a cubic foot of helium?
Air! that's why balloons float.
(fun fact about helium, most helium is created from radioactive decays in the earth's mantle and crust!)
the speed of light
Measured very precisely by Michelson and Morley!
look it up! its worthwhile!
the structure of DNA
biology
Invented Calculus as well as creating the basis for all of classical physics. He actually did too much for me to reasonably list here, so just imagine an apple falling on a head instead.
Isaac Newton
Mole
SI unit for an amount of a substance! chemistry takers rejoice!
DAILY DOUBLE:
note to host, refer to your phone for this one.consciousness
dude we're not even sure what consciousness is
Building a quantum computer.
yes! quantum computation is all physics!
Discovered polonium, radium, and actually named Radioactivity. She actually won the nobel prize in both physics and chemistry!
Marie Curie
idk some guys last name
1837 electrons or 1 proton
the electrons win!
the size of an electron
It's simply too small to be measured. We actually use electrons to measure small things!
How aerosolized particles move through the air.
Debatable, but most modern scientists who study this are usually engineers!
Helped create the basis for our best known theory of the universe, the standard model. He did this through his contributions on Quantum Electrodynamics. Known for playing the bongos, harassing women, and his diagrams.
Richard Feynman
Planck
Again, a physicists name, but he does have Planck's constant, a very fundamental constant to the universe!
The moon or all the water in Earth's oceans?
The moon,
For reference, the mass of the moon is 7.35x10^22 kg,
while the water in the oceans is 1.4x10^21
(about 52.5 times smaller!)
the wavefunction
by definition, it is not measurable. In fact, many argue it's not even a real thing.
Ice floating on water
yes, although chemistry often teaches you why too.
