Abstract
Abstract The Universality of Physical Law begins to explore the breadth of nature’s laws that, like gravitation, extend beyond the confines of Earth; they are truly universal. An aspect of our Solar System that Copernicus, Kepler, and even Newton could not resolve was its absolute size; the first section moves past relative sizes to determining actual distances. The second and third sections consider the first measurements of two of nature’s fundamental constants, the speed of light and the strength of gravity as described by the universal gravitational constant while the fourth section considers the powerful conservation laws of linear momentum, angular momentum, and energy. The principal way by which information from the cosmos reaches Earth is via light; the fifth, sixth, and seventh sections begin to explore the properties of light. Finally, the eight section introduces the reader to the idea of heat as a form of energy.
