Newton's mutual attraction force for masses \(m_1\), \(m_2\) is \(F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{d^2}\), where \(d\) is the distance between them and \(G\) is the gravitational constant.

Shannon's entropy, \(H(X) = -\sum_{x \in \mathbf{X}} p(x) \log p(x)\), measures how informative the mass function \(p\) is about the occurrence of the possible values of variable \(X\).

Maxwell's equations in a vacuum describe a wave propagating at speed \(c\) as the interaction of electric field \(E\) and magnetic field \(B\): \(\nabla \cdot E = 0\), \(\nabla \times E = -\frac{\partial B}{\partial t}\), \(\nabla \cdot B = 0\), \(\nabla \times B = \frac{1}{c^2} \frac{\partial E}{\partial t}\).
