Critical Comment on the Paper “Some of the Complexities in the Special Relativity: New Paradoxes”

Vladimir A. Leus · Physical Science International Journal · 2016

Special Relativity, which the 110-anniversary was marked in the last year, is a very well elaborated theory. However, there might be some logically deduced discrepancies named paradoxes, which demand a painstaking examination. Nonetheless, every search for inherent contradictions...

Construction of a Simple Transformer to Illustrate Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction along Side Mutual Inductance

K. O. Rauff, Aliyu Rilwan, U. Abubakar Farouk & D. Dogo Joshua · Physical Science International Journal · 2016

The concept of mutual induction which arises from Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction is a major concerned about the size of the magnetic flux cutting across a wire which is directly proportional to the induced Electromotive Force (e.m.f.), this is often time being thought...

Frequency and Temperature Effect on Dielectric Properties of Acetone and Dimethylformamide

M. Y. Onimisi, J. T. Ikyumbur, S. G. Abdu & E. C. Hemba · Physical Science International Journal · 2016

The dielectric behavior of both acetone and dimethylformamide (DMF) were examined in the presence of an electric field. The electrical conductivity of both solvents was used to estimate the complex permittivity of acetone and dimethylformamide. The relaxation time of the solvents...
