Electromagnetic pulse

versus 1.2 miles that copper can go before the signal needs to be regenerated or boosted. Overall, it is apparent that fiber optics is a more cost effective solution. Fiber optics is non-metallic and is not susceptible to interference, such as electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency (RF) or lightning. Fiber does not conduct electricity. This means that fiber can be installed in many more types of areas that are prone to such interferences. Fiber is also typically smaller and lighter…

As technology evolves, so will the methods that criminals and terrorists utilize to achieve a personal gain. In the United States and throughout the most countries, technology plays a significant role in the way our economy operates, how cities obtain power, and how information is shared. If technology was used to disrupt this state of living, this could lead to a detrimental chain of events that could cripple the very existence of how we live. The technology we rely upon has numerous…

Photography is the science, art, application and practice of creating images by recording light or by other electromagnetic pulses. It can be done electronically by means of an image sensor. It can also be done chemically a light sensitive material like photographic film. Photography was a form of art that expanded and evolved between the 1840’s and the earl 19th centuries. Jacob Riis, and Dorothea Lange where two photographers that played a vital part in the evolution of photography at this…

too small of a mass to have nuclear fusion. A neutron star is very small and super-dense star that is composed mostly of tightly-packed neutrons. It has a thin atmosphere of hydrogen. A pulsar is a rapidly spinning neutron star that emits energy in pulses. A star with eventually use up most of its hydrogen, and be left with helium, releasing heat and light. Now, there isn’t enough pressure crushing down on the star to have a reaction with helium. Nuclear reaction ceases inside the star. Since…

important invention was that Tesla found out how light can be harnessed and distributed. He made his bulbs by bending glass tubes and created the first neon signs. The third invention is x-rays. Nikola Tesla researched the entire range of electromagnetic and ionizing radiation. Tesla played a central role in medical diagnostic by this invention. The invention originated in one of his famous beliefs.”from his belief that everything we need to understand the universe is virtually around us at…

Clear! The physics behind the electrical life savers, defibrillators “Defibrillation has become an integral part of the emergency response routine. In fact, the American Heart Association considers defibrillation a basic life support skill for paramedics and rescue workers.” (DIRECT QUOTE) The human heart is arguably the most vital organ of the human body, as its coordinated and controlled two-part pumping is necessary to supply blood to the entire body. This supply rate is regulated by the…

While it looks like a normal 747 from the outside, it has major reworking done to it. The entire aircraft is protected by EMP (electromagnetic pulse) shielding in case of a nuclear attack, and other nuclear and thermal shielding. It has tremendous worldwide communication capability with an incredible amount of electrical power, enough to power a city of 15,000. On the inside it is divided…

For centuries, stories of brave heroes and heroines who overcome great evils to selflessly protect others have captured the hearts of many. A number of such stories can actually be found to possess parallel structures to each other. The 12 Stages of The Hero’s Journey is a form of structure commonly found in Romance Narratives and was introduced in Joseph Campbell’s Monomyth from his book The Hero with a Thousand Faces. Campbell shows that many journeys, either literal or metaphorical, follow a…

atoms realign. Essentially, the protons in the nucleus are stimulated and they spin out of equilibrium. This causes them to strain against the pull of the magnetic field. Also, the content of energy of the nuclei changes when they are presented to pulses of radio waves. After all of this, a resonance wave is ejected when the nuclei return to their original condition. Then, small differences in the oscillations of the nuclei are recognized. Radio waves promote the aligned atoms to make faint…

electrical signals. Many photonics applications, such as monitoring laser power levels and laser metrology, require the usage of these detectors.1-3 Although there are many different types of optical detectors available covering parts of the electromagnetic spectrum: the ultraviolet, visible and infrared, optical detectors are divided into two main categories: photon and thermal detectors. Photon detectors generate one electron for an incoming photon, which is detected by an electronic circuit,…
