Thermodynamics

Ideal gas law

"Pure Virgins Never Really Tire":
PV='nRT
The equation PV = nRT represents the ideal gas law, where P' is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is the universal gas constant, and T is the temperature.

Gibbs's free energy formula

"Good Honey Tastes Sweet":
G = H - T'S'.
Gibbs free energy is a thermodynamic state function that measures the energy available for a system to do work, and is given by the formula G = H – TS, where H is enthalpy, T is temperature, and S is entropy.

Electrodynamics

Ohm's law

"Virgins Are Rare":
Volts = Amps x Resistance

Relation between Resistance and Resistivity

REPLAY
Resistance = '''ρ'''

Inductive and Capacitive circuits

Once upon a time, the symbol E was used to designate voltages. Then, every student learned the phrase
ELI the ICE man
as a reminder that:

For an inductive circuit, the EMF is ahead of the current
While for a capactive circuit, the current is ahead of the EMF.

And then they all lived happily ever after.

Open and Short circuits

"There are zero COVS grazing in the field!"
This is a mnemonic to remember the useful fact that:

The Current through an Open circuit is always zero
The Voltage across a Short circuit is always ''zero''

Order of rainbow colors

ROYGBIV is commonly used to remember the order of colors in the visible light spectrum, as seen in a rainbow.
Richard of York gave battle in vain"

Additionally, the fictitious name Roy G. Biv can be used as well.

Speed of light

The phrase "We guarantee certainty, clearly referring to this light mnemonic." represents the speed of light in meters per second through the number of letters in each word: 299,792,458.
