Question

physics and technology are interrelated. physics generate new technology and technology give rise to new physics​

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes , they are complementary

Answer 2

Explanation:

Technology plays an important role in benefit of society. We see many examples in our daily life which show the connection between physics, technology and society. Thermodynamics, a branch of physics, is evolved from the need to understand and improve the working of heat engines. The steam engine played a very important role in Industrial Revolution in England in the 18th century, which had great impact on human civilisation.

Sometimes technology gives rise to new physics and at other times physics generates new technology.

We can understand this by these examples-

Examples of the fact that physics generates new technology-

1. 'The Wireless Communication Technology'-

The discovery of the basic laws of electricity and magnetism in the nineteenth century gives rise to a new technology named as 'The Wireless Communication Technology'. We use so many gadgets and other apparatus like cellphones, Tablets, computers & internet, TV, Radio etc. through which we communicate easily.

2. Nuclear Technology-

The applications of physics are not always easy to foresee. The great physicist Ernest Rutherford had dismissed the possibility of tapping energy from atoms in 1933. But only a few years later, in 1938, Hahn and Meitner discovered the phenomenon of neutron-induced fission of uranium, which became a fundamental principle of nuclear power reactors and nuclear weapons.

3. Silicon Chip Technology-

Yet another important example of physics giving rise to technology is the silicon chip, that triggered the computer revolution in the last three decades of the twentieth century.

4. Development of Alternative Energy Resources -

A most significant area to which physics has and will contribute is the development of alternative energy resources. The fossil fuels of the earth are

ending fast and there is an urgent need to discover new and affordable sources of energy. Considerable progress has already been made in this direction, e.g. conversion of solar energy, geothermal energy, etc., into electricity), but much more is still to be accomplished.

A list of some of the great physicists, their major contribution and the country of origin is given here which are multi-cultural, international character of the scientific endeavour.
