I heard from my physics teachers that there is a mathematical equation that describes all things, but we do not know what the final equation is. they said that we have it down to 3 equations... if this is true can someone show me where i can find them

  1. No, it's not.  There's no equation that describes everything ever.  The idea is that the 'theory of everything' would unite the 4 forces in physics and essentially describe everything, but we don't have a working theory of everything yet.  


  2. We call this "Grand Unification Theory". plenty of people have been trying to work it out since people started taking relativity and quantum mechanics seriously in the early 1900's.

    A lot of people would like it to boil down to one great theory, but there is not necessarily a reason to expect that it will. Physicists Steven Hawking and Richard Feynman have made statements on the subject:

    "If we do discover a complete theory, it should in time be understandable in broad principle by everyone, not just a few scientists. Then we shall all, philosophers, scientists, and just ordinary people, be able to take part in the discussion of the question of why it is that we and the universe exist. If we find the answer to that, it would be the ultimate triumph of human reason — for then we would know the mind of God." -Hawking

    "People say to me, "Are you looking for the ultimate laws of physics?" No, I'm not... If it turns out there is a simple ultimate law which explains everything, so be it — that would be very nice to discover. If it turns out it's like an onion with millions of layers... then that's the way it is. But either way there's Nature and she's going to come out the way She is. So therefore when we go to investigate we shouldn't predecide what it is we're looking for only to find out more about it. Now you ask: "Why do you try to find out more about it?" If you began your investigation to get an answer to some deep philosophical question, you may be wrong. It may be that you can't get an answer to that particular question just by finding out more about the character of Nature. But that's not my interest in science; my interest in science is to simply find out about the world and the more I find out the better it is, I like to find out..." -Feynman

    It sounds like whatever your teacher was trying to convey either wasn't  clear and/or accepted by the scientific community. Maybe you could bring in one or both of the quotes and ask if this is what he or she was talking about.

  3. the empirical formula of loses inversely proportional to distance square perhaps follow the god's law of creation of universe

    such empirical formula as the brightness of the sun, down to miniture electrons behavior of coulomb's law. they all related to distance square.

    and in philosophy of diminishing of love and hate, is also related to separation distance square.
