Introduction This Journal assignment explores the question as to which of the two city states in ancient Greece; Athens or Sparta, I would most prefer to live in. Included in the discussion section is a list of caveats affecting my choice, followed by an examination of the benefits and disadvantages of both city states. The conclusion section states my choice and summarizes rational for that selection. Caveats: There are a few assumptions and preexisting conditions which might effect my…

Sir Isaac Newton was one of the greatest minds of the 17th century Scientific Revolution. He helped develop the principles of modern physics and also a new type of math called calculus. His book Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica has been called the single most influential book on physics (“Sir Isaac Newton”, 2014). Despite all this, he remained a humble man who once said, “If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants (“Isaac Newton”, n.d.)”.…

Running Head: SPIKING MOVEMENT ANALYSIS 1 Movement Analysis of Spiking a Volleyball Jordan Bevins Indiana University East SPIKING MOVEMENT ANALYSIS 2 Abstract This paper is set to analyze the phases spiking a volleyball. Movements can generally be separated into three to five main phases. During each phase different muscles, joints, and bones come into play. The phases and all of the parts that combine to constitute a phase can be further broken…

The purpose of this lab was to find the acceleration of a toy car and create graphs to display this acceleration. These graphs will then be compared to graphs of what is expected for perfect constant acceleration. In order to find the acceleration of the toy car, a strip of ticker tape was attached to one of those toy cars that you pull back and move once your hand releases the car. After attaching the ticker tape and feeding the tape through the spark timer, the timer was turned and the car…

Introduction; Athens’ education system is better than Sparta’s Learning about Athens’ and Sparta’s education system is important because this information can help us develop as a modern society and improve our own education system by looking at what worked and didn’t work for ancient Greece. It’s also a very fascinating topic to learn about, there’s different evidence to support both sides but I’m here to share my knowledge on why Athens’ education system was better than Sparta’s. Reason 1:…

Literature demonstrates that pitch types (fastball, curveball, change-up, slider) generally have similar kinematics with only minor differences in forearm and wrist action, and even less so in the elbow and shoulder(36-40). Fleisig et al demonstrated in a kinematic study involving 21 collegiate baseball pitchers that the change-up pitch is the least stressful, while the curveball and fastball have similar elbow and shoulder kinetics, with the curveball exhibiting increased forearm supination and…

Pericles The Athenian golden age took off under the control of Pericles. Although he didn’t just take it over it all began somewhere. It started off in Greece in the city-state known as Athens 495 BC, Pericles was rather luckily he grew up already in one of the better Athenian families they had a lot of money, his father was Xanthippus a very strong military leader. Pericles was rather lucky he was taught by some of the best scholars out there. Pericles loved music, politics, and philosophy he…

Aaron Copland’s “Hoedown” from Rodeo incorporates several elements of music to further its ideas. The “Hoedown” is peppy and in duple meter. It is program music, using traditional American folk tunes and an impressively diverse range of high and low pitches to convey a sense of vastness, representing the immense American frontier. The movement’s beginning uses consonance as all the notes seem to mesh well with each other, but the middle shows some dissonance, as the notes seem harshly unrelated…

Athenian democracy was successful in many ways. For example, it provided for the people. Democracy effectively provided goods for the masses and met their needs. In addition, Athens owed much of its power to its navy, which was largely serviced by the poor thetes. The democratic system rewarded the poor laborers for their service to Athens. Athenian democracy was also successful in that it was generally very stable. Of all the democracies in ancient Greece, Athens’ was the most radical.…
