Wagner composed 13 operas with his most famous works like Tristan und Isolde, Lohengrin, Parsifal, and Die Meistersinger von Nurnberg(The Mastersingers of Nuremberg.) He transformed the way opera was written and performed by actually doing the libretto himself. The longest opera he…
The crash box is the car component that is attached at each end of a car’s bumper and its function is to absorb the energy produced during collision or impact. Chapter 1 describes briefly on crash boxes and their characteristics. As mentioned earlier in Chapter 1, crash boxes are designed with or without patterns. Each one of the designs have different energy absorbing characteristic depending on the design and its patterns, shape, size, etc. Most crash boxes are designed with several grooves…
Have you ever heard of the saying: “You cannot teach an old dog new tricks?” Well, that saying is not true. Any dog, old or young, can learn a new trick if you have the time and are dedicated. Training your dog is an effective method to prevent, or change, unwanted behaviors. My experience on a training dogs is from my dog Teddy. I taught him to be housebroken, obedient, and even a few tricks. Potty training your dog you need to be consistent; consistency is key in potty training your dog or…
Ancient Greece contained several city-states, of which includes Sparta and Athens. Athens and Sparta were two of the most predominant, conspicuous, and celebrated city-states in Ancient Greece. Although both city-states allowed the government to be elected by the people, Sparta was ruled by two kings while Athens government served to be the first ever democracy. Inside of these two city-states there was much resemblance and contrasts whether it was socially, politically, or economically. Sparta…
After four hundred years of its invention, it became an important scientific instrument, a symbol of science. All through the 400 years history, this invention changed our view of the universe, our thoughts, societies and even our thoughts. This incredible scientific instrument has been built by the famous astronomer and philosopher from Pisa, Galileo Galilei. This invention can make far objects appear closer when viewed through one end of its long pipe. It was a telescope. The telescope’s…
The beginnings of music technology and consumption originated in the late 1800s with Thomas Edison’s ingenious phonograph. Over a course of seventy-five years, the phonograph has received many upgrades and has even become a basis for the recent music technology today (Price and Albright para. 5). Some of the newer music technological advances include vinyl records, cassette tapes, CDs, portable MP3 players, and streaming services, which have all revolutionized music consumption because they have…
When Michael Shermer states that we are pattern-seeking animals, he is trying to say that it is an inherent trait that all of us have and that we are conditioned to find patterns in everything whether they are real or not. There are multiple definitions of a pattern; for this essay the operational definitions of a pattern will be- A. a regular form of reoccurrence of an event and B. something that establishes a cause and effect relationship. Michael Shermer explains and re-states ‘Apophenia’ as…
II. 2. Hydraulic Jump 2.2.1. purpose 1. to create/generate hydraulic jump 2. To clarify questions about the fluid flow. 3. To determine the slatrility and characteristics of hydraulic jump, performed in the laboratory using impulse momentum and energy equations are specific. 4. to compare between the depth of flow measurements and the results of the theory. 2.2.2. Basic Theory A hydraulic jump occurs when the flow of the flow at a high speed exposure at a low-speed flow that occurs at the…
The theory of behaviorism was first shown in Russian psychologist, Ivan Pavlov’s (1927), animal studies, through which he discovered classical conditioning. American psychologist, John B. Watson (1913), was one of the strongest believers in behaviorism; establishing the psychological school of behaviorism, and much of his thinking derived from Pavlov’s work and classical conditioning. Watson’s “Little Albert” experiment (1920) is one of the most controversial and highly unethical experiments…
