Derivationof Physics Formula
What are the Derivations in Physics?
In Physics, it's all about a better understanding of the basics. The derivation in physics defines
the origination of some mathematical algorithm by understanding any physical phenomena
On this page, we will learn about the following
* Why do we derive Physics formulas?
+ How to derive Physics formulas?
+ How to derive equations in Physics?
* Derivation of Physics formulas
* Deriving Physics equations
Why Do We Derive Physics Formulas?
Everything we study in Physics has some logic behind it and Mathematics gives us the logic to
understand the phenomena and when we see the connection between mathematics and
physics our understanding increases much more. During applications, students may come
across many concepts, problems, and mathematical formulas. With the help of derivations,
students use their ability and creativity and good sort of potential to find solutions.
How to Derive Physics Equations?
Mathematical derivations are important in deriving the physical equations because it helps to
make us understand where the equation came from, why that is the equation for a particular
problem
How to Derive Physics Formulas?
Physics formulas are derived from observations and experiments.Lear UNE Online
There are few derivations done below to describe how to derive physics formulas.

Torque on a Bar Magnet
A uniform magnetic field B is represented by parallel lines.
NS is a bar magnet with the length 21 and strength at each pole ism
The magnet is held at an angle © with the directionof B.

(Image will be uploaded soon)
Force on North pole = mB, along B
Force on South pole = mB, opposite to B
The forces are equal and they tend to rotate the magnet clockwise so as to align it along B.
Therefore torque on the bar magnet is given byVedaniti,

The TotalEnergyin S.H.M
Simple harmonic motion is the motion executed by a point mass subjected to a force that is
proportional to the displacement of the particle but opposite in sign.
A particle executing S.H.M possess the following: Potential energy and Kinetic energy
Potential energy.
This is on account of the displacement of the particle from its mean position.
Consider a particle of mass m, executing S.H.M with amplitude a and constant angular
frequency w. Suppose t second after starting from its mean position, the displacement of the
particle is y, which is given by
y= aSinwt..(1)

Summary
* Derivation means the action of obtaining something from a source or origin.
* Through derivation, we find a logical connection between a natural phenomenon and a
mathematical description of that phenomenon. In general, this points to an important
conclusion about nature itself.Hi...
