Introduction Limited range of motion often incapacitates individuals from living a full life and often requires time and the resources of caretakers to pander to needs to physically handicapped patients. With the maturation of the ‘baby boomer’ generation, there is a sudden onset of the need for specialized care for the geriatrics, but without the labor force to match the demand. With the advancement of technology, new needs can be met. Standard wheelchairs are bereft of motion without…
Many big events happen every year. They all mean something and some of them are remembered forever. In the past few years, one of the most important events that took place was the “Project Stratos” in 2012. The goal of the mission was to prove a man could survive the speed of sound in a freefall. I will explain why I believe it was the most important event of 2012! First, Project Stratos is so important because of the accomplishment that was made and the fact that it broke many world records…
Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems P1) Over a twenty four hour period, the sun and planets can be seen moving from the east direction to the west direction. P2) The earth could not be moved by two motions like other planets, because there is no variance in the rising and setting of the heavens. P3) If the Earth moved, a dropped object would travel in the direction that the earth itself is moving and would be slowed down by said motion. Scientific experiments have exhibited that…
where a team tries to drill to the center of the Earth, so that they can restart the rotation of the Earth by blasting the Earth’s core with nuclear missiles. The movie, The Core, had flaws and errors; in which, causes unrealistic standards for science and unjustified the idea of what would really happen in this kind of situation. The main struggle the team faces in the movie, the core of the Earth stopping its rotation, is the first error that goes against what is known through science about…
basically anybody could build." There are obvious reasons why the Russian government and the US government and any other world governments would want to supress the knowlege of torsion field technology. First of all, let's be absolutely clear. This technology is not entirely benevolent. There are extraordinarily damaging and destructive things that can be done with it also it would be the end of their power, the ones possesing this technology. How do we transition to this next thing without…
by working to introduce varieties of drought resistant crops to farming communities. Some of the main crops to be introduced are drought resistant strains of cavassa, sorghum, and sweet potato (“Coping with Drought and Climate Change (CwDCC) in Mozambique”). Improving plant science in Mozambique could significantly decrease food insecurity, poverty rates, and malnutrition. If Mozambique were to use improved plant science, the amount of crop lost to dramatic climatic events would decrease…
The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of changing soil textures and nutrient availabilities upon biomass allocation within Brassica rapus. From the data collected, we can conclude that soil texture and it’s influence upon nutrient availability is significant in determining biomass allocation within B. rapus. In our study, we found that soil texture primarily determined root biomass while the degree of nutrient availability, provided by fertilization, primarily determined…
Carolina. But my brother, Ben, sent us another letter, addressed as he always did to John Benjamin Wilks and Katie. In the letter Ben was praising his new farm, the richness of the land and how many more acres he was clearing. He told of the bountiful crops of corn and wheat that he would be reaping in a few weeks, more corn and wheat per acre than Father had ever gotten from our old worn out farm in North Carolina. He told of the abundance of water, game, and timber. Ben ended his letter by…
they had borrowed from landowners or local merchants. The loans they had accumulated threw the year were known as “furnish” and this amount would be repaid at the end of the year and the landowners compared the value of the tenant’s portion of the crop with the sum advanced to the tenant during the season known as a settlement (Robin D. G. Kelley, 2000, p. 70). This system continued to enhance poverty because most of the sharecroppers came out either behind or barely even because the landowners…
static balance. For the static unbalance rotor, no matter how many eccentric mass, just needed to keep single-plane balance. Dynamic balance The mass of static unbalance rotor could not be considered it is distributed perpendicular to its axis of rotation in the same plane. When the rotor rotating, due to the centrifugal force caused by each eccentric mass are not on the same plane, thus, the formation of the inertia couple, the rotor is still unbalance. This process of balancing called…
