In tough economic times, schools may attempt to cut school funding from the arts in order to preserve funding in other areas. However, the arts teach essential skills.

Since the Baroque period, collections of preludes and fugues have served not only as pedagogical tools, but as ideological demonstrations of Western fundamental harmony.

This article looks at some apparent advantages from a profound understanding of mathematics.

The rise in popularity of computing concepts has increased the popularity of this branch of mathematics.

Kepler's first law of planetary motion radically changed our views of the cosmos by saying that planets had elliptical orbits.

Using Tycho Brahe's laboriously collected data on planetary positions Johannes Kepler discovered three laws of planetary motion and revolutionized astronomy.

In optics, Snell's law of refraction tells us that light is refracted, or bent, when it passes from one medium to another.

Ampere's Law allows physicists to determine the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field induced by an electric current.

The total electric field integrated over a surface enclosing a volume of space gives the total amount of electric charge in that region of space.

Kepler's second law of planetary motion, expressed in terms of equal areas and equal times, means that the planets change speeds as they orbit the Sun.

Kepler's third law of planetary motion is a mathematical relation between orbital periods and distances. It allows astronomers to measure masses of celestial objects.

Mass and weight are related but distinctly different properties of an object. Mass is an inherent property; weight is the gravitational force acting on an object.

The ideal gas law is a general law for the pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas that includes both Boyle's law and Charles' for gasses as special cases.

The most influential aspect of Gann's work was his observation that time is a major constraint on price movements. When time "runs out" the market is ready for a reversal

Two fundamental principles of physics govern hot air balloon flight. They are not the same principles that govern airplane flight.
