To accompany the physical law article which is very descriptive and well-written, though hasn't any formulae, and help reduce the size of the list of elementary physics formulae page, the physical laws have been organized into this article. The laws of science article is a little loose in its presentation, its easier to have mathematical descriptions of laws of physics in one place to use in conjunction with other physics formulae articles.

de Broglie wavelength equation
editI'd just like to query Maschen's rearrangement of the de broglie wavelength equation to (wavelength)(momentum)=(plank's constant). Whilst this is correct, wouldn't it be more intuitive to have wavelength as the subject of the equation? After all, the property being discussed is the wavelength, not the definition of Plank's constant using de Broglie wavelength.
Just a suggestion - I think the article is great!

Fair point, this is just the usual way I normally write the equation. The article lists laws as equations as they are, no real preferance is made to any variables, even by their title. The equation is symmetric in p and λ and commutativity of multiplication easily demonstrates this. I'll change it back if you want though.
Anyway, you R ! E ! A ! L ! L ! Y ! think the article is great! THANK YOU!!! I never thought I would get any credit for any articles I create (not that I care anyway - I just became excited), since they're very referance-style and wouldn't have any "readers".

Ok, I see where you are coming from. And yes - I think that wikipedia has been lacking in a comprehensive directory of physical equations, so good job!
merge into Laws of science and List of physics equations
editThis article is absolutley pointless and I plan to merge it into these articles. F = q(E+v×B) ⇄ ∑ici 19:21, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
- This article has now been merged and blanked, to be redirected to Laws of science. The parallels between classical EM and gravity is temporarily stored in my sandbox. F = q(E+v×B) ⇄ ∑ici 20:54, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
