“It is more important to have beauty in the equations of physics than to have them agree with experiments”. The great British physicist P.A.M. Dirac held this view. Criticize this statement. Lookout for some equations and results in this book which strike you asbeautiful.
Solution:
statement of great British Physicist P.A.M. Dirac is partially true. For example F = m a ; E = m c 2
However, this is not the case always. The equations involved in general theory of relativity and some of the latest works of higher Physics are neither simple nor beautiful. They are rather difficult to understand.
