Relativistic Gravitation

AbstractBy the early 1970s, the improved accuracy of astrometric and time measurements enabled researchers not only to experimentally compare relativistic gravity with the Newtonian predictions, but also to compare different relativistic gravitational theories (e.g., the Brans-Dicke Scalar-Tensor Theory of Gravitation). For this comparison, Kip Thorne and others developed the Parameterized Post-Newtonian Formalism (PPN), and derived the dependence of different astronomically observable effects on the values of the corresponding parameters.Since then, all the observations have confirmed General Relativity. In other words, the question of which relativistic gravitation theory is in the best accordance with the experiments has been largely settled. This does not mean that General Relativity is the final theory of gravitation: it needs to be reconciled with quantum physics (into quantum gravity), it may also need to be reconciled with numerous surprising cosmological observations, etc. It is, therefore, reasonable to prepare an extended version of the PPN formalism, that will enable us to test possible quantum-related modifications of General Relativity.In particular, we need to include the possibility of violating fundamental principles that underlie the PPN formalism but that may be violated in quantum physics, such as scale-invariance, T-invariance, P-invariance, energy conservation, spatial isotropy violations, etc. In this paper, we present the first attempt to design the corresponding extended PPN formalism, with the (partial) analysis of the relation between the corresponding fundamental physical principles.

The teaching and learning model is the basis for implementing learning and is designed based on the result of analyzing curriculum implementation in the classroom. The conceptual reference that outlines the systematic stages for organizing learning experiences to lead to learning objectives. Understanding history is a combination of learning and teaching. Because the effort to study past events certainly has a correlation with current life. Therefore, it is expected that the use of learning history, including the use of local historical sites, can encourage students’ learning interest which can prove by increasing motivation and learning achievement. Based on the result of research conducted, it can be described as follows: 1. Developing a history learning model based on the use of local historical sites can improve the quality of learning. 2. Local historical sites can be developed as effective learning resources .

This class action research aims to improve students' motivation and learning outcomes through the SETS (Science, Environment, Technology and Society) approach to Environmental Pollution VII VII E material, SMP Negeri 1 Wonosari in semester 2 academic year 2017/2018. This research lasted for 2 (two) cycles, the first cycle was held 3 (three) meetings and the second cycle was held 2 (two) meetings. Things to be improved through this classroom action research are learning motivation and student learning outcomes through the SETS approach. Data collection techniques used were questionnaires and tests. Motivation questionnaire data is in the form of student acquisition scores during cycle I and cycle II while the learning outcome data is the value of student test results after the learning process of cycle I and cycle II. The results of the questionnaire are tabulated and processed and then compared with indicators of success that have been determined to measure the improvement and achievement. The test result data is processed by calculating the percentage of students who reach the KKM then compared with indicators of success to find out the improvement and achievement. Based on the results of data analysis and discussion it can be concluded that the SETS approach can increase student motivation and student learning outcomes. The final recapitulation of student learning motivation increased from 65.83% (enough) in the first cycle to 76.28% (good) in the second cycle while the student learning outcomes increased from 58.33% in the first cycle to 83.33% in the second cycle.

This study aims to improve students’ motivation and learning outcomes by PCP strategies on plant tissue material in class XI Science of SMA Negeri 4 Ambon. This research is a classroom action research design. The learning activities are divided into 2 cycles and refer to the John Elliot (1988) model which consists of four stages of action in each cycle. The results showed there was an increase in students’ motivation and learning outcomes from the first cycle to the second cycle, where student motivation reached 80% in the first cycle, and in the second cycle increased to 87%. The percentage of the students’ number who completed learning in the first cycle is 64%, that increased in the second cycle to 84%. The percentage increase of students’ motivation and learning outcomes has reached a success indicator so it can be concluded that the application of biology learning by using a PCP (Point Counter Point) strategy can increase the motivation and learning outcomes of students on plant tissue material of Class XI Science  in SMA Negeri 4 Ambon.

Motivation And Learning

The low learning motivation of students in the learning process. The initial motivation of students is 69% (less), namely out of 14 students, only four students meet the indicators of success. It is because teachers still dominate teaching and learning activities so that learning is teacher-centered. In the learning process, some students did not pay attention to the lessons given by the teacher. This study aims to determine the increase in motivation and learning achievement of students through the cooperative model of the Student Teams Achievement Divisions type assisted by audio-visual media. This type of research is classroom action research. The research procedure was carried out in two cycles. The source of the data taken is the entire class V, totaling 14 students. Data collection methods used are documentation, questionnaires, and interviews. The data analysis technique used is quantitative and descriptive qualitative analysis. The results showed an increase in student motivation. Students' learning motivation in the first cycle reached 74% (enough) as many as 8 students had met the success indicators, and in the second cycle, it was 81% (good) as many as 12 students had met the success indicators. Based on the results of the analysis and discussion, it can be concluded that the Student Teams Achievement Divisions type cooperative model can increase students' motivation and learning achievement.

Abstract One potential pathway to find an ultimate rule governing our universe is to hunt for a connection among the fundamental equations in physics. Recently, Ren et al. reported that the harmonic maps with potential introduced by Duan, named extended harmonic mapping (EHM), connect the equations of general relativity, chaos and quantum mechanics via a universal geodesic equation. The equation, expressed as Euler–Lagrange equations on the Riemannian manifold, was obtained from the principle of least action. Here, we further demonstrate that more than ten fundamental equations, including that  of classical mechanics, fluid physics, statistical physics, astrophysics, quantum physics and general relativity, can be connected by the same universal geodesic equation. The connection sketches a family tree of the physics equations, and their intrinsic connections reflect an alternative ultimate rule of our universe, i.e., the principle of least action on a Finsler manifold.
