friction would prevent reaching the other side by Emily Conover, the article starts off by suggesting to imagine what it would be like falling down through Earth’s center by an imaginary tunnel. As the traveler falls, the action would be propelled by the force of gravity and friction, however, air resistance and friction would make the fall of an estimated 12,000 Kilometers slower. A study calculated how factors could affect the jump down the hole. Theoretically speaking, gravity could…

mathematics can show us how they interact and how they affect performance. Water Bottle Rockets are mainly used for educational purposes in schools. They are used to explore basic aerodynamics and physics. Water rockets demonstrate many different forces such as weight, thrust, lift, and drag. Basic parts of a common bottle rocket include a nose cone, fins, a base, and a launcher used to launch the rocket. Rocket propulsion started showing up in history around 400 B.C. when a Greek by the…

One thousand- It seems to be a fairly large number, but in some cases, especially mine, it can be extremely small. The average person has from one hundred and fifty thousand to four hundred thousand blood platelets, yet there are times where I found myself with as low as one thousand of them. It was in times like those were I looked up to courageous people like Jackie Robinson, who faced difficulties head on with no fear. I quietly sat in the airport boarding gate with my eyes screwed shut,…

this activity. Launching Potatoes through Potato launchers is an example of projectile motion, it also shows how gravity can impact acceleration. Projectile motion occurs when an object is thrown and it moves along a curve due to gravity. The only force that a project has during projectile motion is gravity which causes a downward acceleration. These three principles of physics are present in such a simple activity. The article mentions the students reaction as they observed projectile motion…

When we were a child, our parents taught us that if we wanted something, we had to work for it. When they talked about work, it was a way of saying if you truly want something you would do what it takes to get it. As we grow older, we began to understand why our parents constantly annoyed us to work. In our nation, everything is left working for. Putting food on the table to buying something that pleased yourself; meant spending about forty hours a week on your feet. Working does not necessarily…

When discussing stress this idea of police officers having stress is foolish. Some people may say police officers job is to protect and serve they don’t know what stress is, that idea is ignorance on level 10. Stress on a police officer can come from several different aspects like home life or being on line of duty. In the eyes of the public police officers tend to “emphasis on bravery, secrecy, machismo, and isolation from the general public” (Burns 207). These characteristics combine…

Axel a curious boy nervous to go on a journey with Professor Lidenbrock, discovers a coded note written in what they call runic script. After showing Professor Lidenbrock, Lidenbrock and Axel they translate the runic script to Latin, showing a peculiar message. After cracking the code, it seemed to be a medieval note written by Arne Saknussem, an Icelandic alchemist. After finding out what the note meant, Lidenbrock and his nephew, Axel, who does not want to go, goes on a trip to Iceland.…

“Stress” says there are at least three different types of stress, routine stress, stress brought on by means of a sudden negative change, and traumatic stress. The term stress derives from the Latin word “stringere”. Different people may sense stress in different ways, some people may feel experiences in their digestive systems, while some might have headaches, or become depressed. It is said the main reasons for stress is the tremendous cost of living that we have today. There are different…

Identify two components of fitness for which you were strongest (indicate the component of fitness, the related fitness test and your score for each test). For each of the two fitness tests you mentioned, what was one physical sign that you were pushing yourself? (i.e. my triceps burned during the push-ups test) The two components of fitness that was my strongest fitness component were Power and Flexibility. During the fitness test my fitness component for Power, I scored a total of 1.27 cm in…

Hard work consists of a great deal of effort. Having a good work ethic means that you are better prepared and this will in result lead you to success. A bad work ethic will most of time lead to failure, but some people still seem to come out on top. A hard work ethic is needed in order to achieve a goal. A good work ethic will require you to put in a great deal of time and effort into something that may be painful or boring at the current time, but it will all pay off in the end. A bad work…
