Drop

The theory of pro: An Italian perspective Introduction Universal Grammar (UG) is a linguistics theory which supports the idea that all human languages, although different in the surface, share some fundamental principles. These principles are generally true across languages, while parameters, on the other hand, are settings that allow for variation from language to language (White, 2003, p.2). The Extended Projection Principle (EPP) is a principle common to all languages which states that a…

Egg Drop Project For my egg drop project, at first I planned to do a triangle shape around the egg with straws and tape the straws together. Then I changed my project to a square like shaped with enough flexibility to squeeze the egg into it. I used straws because it would “soften” the fall. I also used a parachute to make it a smoother fall. After I completely figured out what I was doing I started building. I hot glued two straws against one straw until I had a square. After I…

The Drop I looked ahead of me to see the beautiful coast of Maui, Hawaii. I saw plenty of waterslides, beach towels and beach chairs.The waterslides had long lines with people waiting impatiently while the beach chairs were set empty lined up like plastic soldiers. I smelled the scent of sunscreen being applied and I heard the noise of the waves crashing on the sand. " You ready kid?" The lifeguard said. I heard him, but all I could really think about was this waterslide. I also heard my…

The Decision to Drop the Atomic Bombing in Japan In August 1945, the United States dropped two atomic bombs, causing major destruction and life threatening issues, over the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Everyone has their own take on what really happened and have their own perspective on controversies regarding the United States’ decision to drop the bombs. Perspectives that I will be discussing today are from three disciplines: scientific view (Leo Szilard), journalism view (Wilfred…

there is only one actor who will work in the role. Both of these situations are reflected in the casting of the protagonists in The Drop and Spy. The movie Spy without the casting of Melissa McCarthy would have lost the impact of the majority of its jokes. McCarthy’s performance as Susan Cooper could not have been replicated by any other actresses. Tom Hardy in The Drop, however, does not offer the same uniqueness. The role of Bob could have been performed by other similar actors and still…

up falcon’s fury or as I like to call it, the king of the world! So I ran to the line yes I was at the front of the line, and my mom and sister were yelling from the side “you’re crazy” “ there is no way I can do that” they said. I promise that the drop tower is as tall as the twin towers, this tower was HUGE! Now that seats were dry started loading. So when the lady came up to let us on the ride she pointed at me and said “go the red diamond” then I proceeded…

If you have read my past work at all, you know I am beyond passionate about helping businesses succeed. I personally believe that in order to any business to find sustained success it has to be led by a person with a go-get-em attitude and the iron will to work as long as it takes to achieve their goals. One such individual you may or may not of heard of is Emanuel “Manny” Hernandez. This Puerto Rican businessman has achieved more than he ever thought possible. I recently had the pleasure of…

the early nineties after having been on an upward trend since the sixties. They reached a historical peak in 1992 and from 1993 to 2000, the U.S experienced an unexpected 48% and 51% drop in violent and property crime rates, respectively (U.S Dept. of Justice). Many researchers have tried to explain this sharp drop in crime, but there seems to be a lack of consensus on the most influential factors. On one side, there are researchers who believe that most of the reduction of crime was due to…

The egg drop project we did involved many physics principles. One of them was air resistance, which happened because the egg dropped and it accelerated, while the velocity increased. Then the resistance of the air to the egg box motion also increased, which means the upward force of air resistance balances the downward force of gravity, so the egg box dropped at a constant speed. We attached balloons to the box we made in order for the box to pass through the air while softly landing. We believe…

experiment you will determine the mass of a single drop of water by a graphical method. You will evaluate its uncertainty. Data: Table 1: Number of Drops: Mass of Beaker + drops/g (0.01g) 1 2.36 g 2 2.38 g 3 2.40 g 4 2.44 g 5 2.46 g 6 2.48 g 7 2.50 g Chart 1: Analysis: The mass of 1 drop of water is 0.4g. By taking the total mass and dividing it by the number of drops we can figure out the average mass of a drop of water. However the number of drops should be more than three as we have…
