correlated to an increase in distance of about 20 feet. The COR was found to have a slight negative effect on batted ball speed. Increasing the COR from 0.40 to 0.47 actually resulted in a decrease in batted ball speed of over 3 mph and correlated to a decrease in distance of about 11 feet.” (Ciocco, 2010) The maximum distance between home plate and the outfield fence is 300 feet; homerun’s range anywhere from about 301 feet to 315 feet. Imagine men hitting the men’s ball at a distance of 305…
There are many astronomers out there, but the one person that stood out to me was Edwin Hubble. It is because of Edwin, we now have a better understanding on the distance in the universe and that it’s expanding. His research was very remarkable that he had a telescope with his name. Since Edwin established the scale of the universe and laid the observational basis, he helped us understand what are galaxies like in the universe. To start off, Edwin noticed a Cepheid variable in the Andromeda…
news reporting rests on how it primarily seeks ‘to engage, to please, to shock’ in order to tell stories and this is where the questioning of credibility and morality arises. Moreover, Silverstone discusses trust and trustworthiness in abridging the distance between individuals in the mediated platform. Whereas, when reading Georgiou’s article, readers may assume the element of trust already exists in the relationship Arab participants have with the soap operas they are engaging with. This…
CROSS-CULTURAL DIFFERENCES. There are many sectors of differences between cultures but language has the prolific impact. but other differences can be as important as language. There are five dimensions of cross-cultural differences as per research. power distance, individualism versus collectivism, uncertainty avoidance, maleness versus womanliness, long-term versus short-term orientation. These differences can play a significant role in our ability to develop a personal and professional…

Kepler’s Laws, Kepler is credited with 3 laws regarding the movement of celestial bodies orbiting other celestial bodies. Johannes Kepler, working with data painstakingly collected by Tycho Brahe without the aid of a telescope, developed three laws which described the motion of the planets across the sky. Kepler's 1st Law: The Law of Orbits, Kepler's 2nd Law: The Law of Areas, and Kepler’s 3rd Law: The Law of Periods. Kepler's laws were derived for orbits around the sun, but they apply to…
What is a Mousetrap Car: “A small vehicle having its only source of motive power to be a mousetrap” (Mousetrap Car, Wikipedia) http://cdn.instructables.com/FGF/JUQF/F8J7C2ZW/FGFJUQFF8J7C2ZW.MEDIUM.jpg How a Mousetrap Car Works: http://mesa.sdsu.edu/Projectofthemonth/mousetrapcars6[1].jpg A mousetrap car doesn’t need batteries or fuel. It is powered by simply setting the trap and letting it lose. The power from the spring propels the car. A rod, or lever, (typically used to snap…
Cells signals can be mainly described as chemical, prokaryotes have sensors capable of detecting nutrients which helps them find food these signals can either be long distance or short distance some of the short distance could be found in muscle cells and a long distance can be describe as the releasing of an egg in the ovaries. Cells have protein receptors which will bind to protein signaling molecules triggering a respond in the molecules. Different receptors are specific for different…
will examine the types of camera angles used, the lighting direction and the composition of objects and figures on the screen. The elevator encounter between Walter Neff and the Watchman in the first scene is a two-shot captured at medium close-up distance. Walter is clutching a coat tightly around his suit while trying to avoid having a conversation with the Watchman. The low-key and high-contrast lighting here has left the most of the scene in total darkness. The only non-obscure elements are…
