Soccer is a sport that involves two teams of 11 players who strike a football with their feet. When the players kick the ball they can affects the way the ball spins in the air. Factors that affect the way a ball spins include: wind drag, the way the ball is struck, and friction. These affect it due to the change of the air-flow over the ball, which occur when the ball spins in both a translational and rotational motion. This is due to the magnus effect and bernoulli principle occurring when the…

Ava Lilienthal Science Barcus 7-4 The Physics Behind Soccer Soccer really has a lot to do with science. From Newton’s laws of motion to the momentum of the person kicking the ball, the drag force and the magnus effect, and even the air pressure in the ball. It is harder than most people think. Next time you watch a soccer game, or play a soccer game, think about the science in the game. First, Newton’s Law’s are present when the ball is kicked. His first law, an object at rest stays at rest…

President Obama’s speech stressed the importance of the theoretical tradition of liberalism in America’s view of international politics. President Obama’s ideology of international affairs can be explained using Joseph Nye’s three strands of liberal thinking, which are economic, social, and political liberalism. However, although his speech is dominated by liberalist views, his policies are the creation of intellectual pluralism and therefore his liberalist views are mixed with the theoretical…

Similarities The Renaissance and Middle Ages was two completely different time periods, but they also had some things in common with the way they used music. For example, both time periods used music in church and sacred gatherings. The Middle Ages built spaces to be used just for musical performances (Middle). The rooms were large with acoustic qualities and were surrounded by stained glass windows depicting Biblical scenes. In the Renaissance, religion went through Counter-Reformation which…

The three presentations that had the same theme as mine are Lance’s (Alexander The Great), Hani’s (Battle of Thermopylae), and Declan’s (Athens). First, Lance’s presentation on Alexander the Great had the same theme as mine. Lance showed his theme of the rise and fall of Ancient Greece in a way that showed all the good aspects of Alexander. He showed how Alexander won every battle he founded and brought many good things to Greece. This enhanced my understanding of that theme because it helped…

The hypothesis can be supported after the results obtained because the experimental groups changed their behavior toward the vinegar. This happened beacuse the neurons that encoded the water smell were activated and this new artificially produced smell replaced the one in the air. The rats trusting their sense signaling them it was water went to taste it and had a disgusting surprise realizing it was vinegar. These results suggest that the smell of water was indeed artificially induced into the…

can be related to the argument about HIP, as HIP is not about playing the notes of the early music, but also we should consider what intentions do the composer had at that moment, what technique shall be used, and what instruments were used in that period of time. By the statement, “Notation conserves music, then, but it conceals as much as it reveals,” (p. 59) it exemplifies that we may know or at least have an idea of what early music sounds like based on its notation. Given this point, we…
