Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics) for granted. After Blaise Pascal encouraged him to do so, Huygens wrote the first book on probability theory,[2] which he had published in 1657. He developed a wave theory of light opposed to the corpuscular theory of Newton and formulated Huygens's principle, which holds that, concerning light waves, every point on a wave front is itself a source of new waves. If you aspire to be in any of the IIT's, you should practice solving the IIT JEE Like it has questions based on Newtons Law, Gravitation, Momentum, Waves, Flux of electrical field, Capacitance, Ohm's Law, Huygen's principle from Optics, Bohr's Theory of hydrogen-like atom etc. As can be seen from the schedule, the workshop was concerned with mathematical questions to do with the geometry of quantum states in the standard Hilbert space picture of quantum mechanics, rather than any physical issues that is only tenuously understandable, and is a minor quirk of theory that doesn't at all matter in practice (just the way I can always apply Huygens' principle also in 2D—following another definition of the principle: a local definition). A serious JEE aspirant should never take the three subjects (i.e. In the field of mathematics and physics, Huygens wrote several publications on probability theory, worked on the law of motion, and became well known for his wave theory of light from 1678. His importance to music theory lies in the Novus cyclus harmonicus (1661) in which he demonstrated the mathematical basis of the old theory of division of the octave into 31 equal parts. Every point on a primary wavefront serves as the source of spherical secondary wavelets such that the primary wavefront at some later time is the envelope of these wavelets. Second son of Constantijn Huygens. He also The mathematical and practical details of this finding were published in “Horologium Oscillatorium” of 1673.
