It has been alleged that Galileo said those memorable words when he was released after the famous trial during which he was forced to repudiate his convictions about the earth moving around the sun. The message of Eppur si muove ("And yet it moves") was very subtle and important: despite my public deny, and the Church's proclamation on the contrary, the earth does, in fact, move around the sun and not the opposite. Galileo's words have huge epistemological importance: despite the Church's values…

other. The program insisted that the two terms be written out “daily or every other day” regardless of the capitalization or the importance of the terms must be written out. The fourth abbreviation is the trailing zero this promotes the missing decimal point. This can lead to the miscalculations on many drugs. The fifth abbreviation is MS. This particular abbreviation can be mistaken for Magnesium sulfate and morphine sulfate. The two can be used interchangeably when represented be the…

A graduated cylinder was used to measure 200mL of distilled water into an Erlenmeyer flask and then 40mL of 0.6 M NaOH was added to the distilled water in the flask. The flask was then plugged with a rubber stopper and shook in order to mix the solution. A buret was then washed, rinsed with distilled water, and then 5 mL of the NaOH diluted solution. After the cleansing of the buret, it was then filled up with the NaOH diluted solution. The dilution of the solution was calculated to find the…

exact. To get a correct answer to the equation one must use precisely 2, not 1.99 or 2.001. The force of gravity has been tested over and over with sensitive torsion balances and has shown repeatedly that the factor must be precisely two up to five decimal places. Similar to the mass of a proton which cannot be changed without catastrophic results, if any value other than 2 is substituted in the equation, it would result in the eventual decay of orbits and the disintegration of the whole…

Chapter eight of the text Sound and Recording by Francis Rumsey and Tim McCormick, discusses the principles of digital audio, and contrasts digital with analog. The text also illustrates how digital and analog work together to produce desired sound. In the world of audio there are two types; digital and analog. Analog can be described as physical or tangible in a sense, being etched onto some type of media. Digital however, is a representation of the audio waveform, which is converted into a…

class have its different usage and purpose. The practice of IPv4 address divides 32 bits into four fields. Each field includes 8 bits. Since IPv4 is binary-based, it can be converted to a decimal number from 0 to 255. For example, an IPv4 address is 11000000 10101000 00000111 00011011. The number converted into a decimal format is 192.168.7.27. The volume that 32 bits can present is 232 that are equal to 4,294,967,296. (Defense Advanced Research Projects 1981) IPv6 address owns 16 bytes that are…

“The golden ratio is a special number found by dividing a line into two parts so that the longer part divided by the smaller part is also equal to the whole length divided by the longer part.” (Elaine J. Hom )After the 21st century, golden ratio represents as a phi in Greek alphabet. The equation for golden ratio is a/b = (a+b)/a = 1.6180339887498948420 …,but if we round it two places, it will be 1.62.the golden ratio is also called the golden mean, golden section, golden number and so on. The…

Have you ever been followed around a store? I have realized I'll always be viewed as the bottom notch in American culture, probably in the world. Being a black girl in America makes it hard to ever forget 2014's year of lessons, surprises and series of reality checks. Bright, heat mimicking death. The Texas air is stiff with the worry of life or maybe it's just me. Community take charge, community lean in.The older folks love me they know what value I carry. Society doesn't expect Black…

The aim of the experiment was to investigate the change in visual acuity across the nasal retina to an eccentricity of 45 degrees. Method Firstly, the subject was sat down and the Visual acuity was measured using the log mar chart, the decimal V was calculated. A display board was positioned in front of the subject at a distance of one metre ensuring the subject’s eyes were parallel to the board and the Maltese cross was positioned on the extreme left end. This is to ensure the cross was…

Reflection on Results of Mathematics Competency Test and Mathematics Disposition Surveys. I have always enjoyed mathematics. My positive attitude towards this subject stems from both my ability to achieve good results and understanding why mathematics is an important part of life, which means that my education in this subject was successful since the aim of education is to “equip students for their lives outside school” (Kemp & Hogan, 2000, p. 5). This also ties in with “understanding the role…
