Alexandra Banales X explains Y The purpose of this experiment was to measure the tension, or force, produced by interacting filaments in a muscle fiber. In order to test this, a subject had three electrode disks located on their forearm. These disks were connected to a computer monitor which traced the EMG records and the Force trace of their muscle contraction. Data was observed while the subject changed their hand movement in different ways including wrist positions such as fully flexed,…

In the summer of 2014 I spent a whole week out in the blazing sun only to return with several blisters, a bad sunburn, and a sense of pride. During that week I was assigned to rebuilding recreational parks in areas which desperately needed it. I worked hard to paint the benches and clean up the street, just hoping I would help touch a permanent residents heart from the difficult work I was doing. My question had been answered my second day on the job, while I was slapping a fresh coat of royal…

Name: Heat stroke (hyperthermia) Overview: Hypothermia occurs when the body temperature falls below the warning level and the heart can no longer pump enough blood to make it flow through the whole body. Hypothermia occurs when the temperature of our body drops below 35 degrees Celsius or 95 degrees Fahrenheit. Causes: Hypothermia caused as a result of exposure to cold weather- without adequate protection - for an excessive time, in wherein the body is no longer able to produce the heat…

For most, working for yourself and doing what you love is a big dream. No unreasonable deadlines, no one constantly on your back, and no nagging. Being your own boss means freedom especially creative freedom in a field such as freelance photography. However, people often overlook the amount of responsibility and hard work put into not only your photography projects or portfolios but into supervising your own enterprise(at best with an assistant). This goes to say that to be a freelance…

determine the specific latent heat of vaporization for water. Electric power supply = 2 kW. Time taken = 5 minutes. Initial reading of the electronic balance = 685 g Final reading of the electronic balance = 565 g Mass of water vaporized, m = ………… Energy supplied by the heater, Q = Pt = ……….. Specific latent heat of vaporization: 11. Applications of Specific Latent Heat • Drinks can be cooled by adding in several cubes of ice. When ice melts a large amount of heat is absorbed and this lowers the…

try to lengthen the endurance of the run. For most athletes, this is a “wall” that they will strive to get over during every single race, because the “wall” defines the amount of potential energy that each runner has by limitation of energy available to perform. In other words, the higher the potential energy, the less likely a runner will become fatigued and the more likely a runner will overcome the “wall.”…

important it is to have a consistent, healthy diet when it comes to critical thinking. Our brains use up to 70% of our calorie intake for the day just from thinking, and that means that our brains are using up whatever energy they are given. If you give your brain inconsistent energy throughout the day, it becomes hard to concentrate and hard to deal with everyday tasks. My current diet is that of no carbs, no alcohol, and tons of fat. I realized that fat takes a lot longer to digest than carbs,…

the highest of my potential and perform to the best of my ability. In the future, it will be important to learn to trade some of my future orientation for the goals of others and for my own present happiness. I will have to trade off my time and my energy in order to help others, which is something I am willing and find pleasure in doing. In addition, sometimes I get so caught up in my goals so that I do not necessarily enjoy the present. Although this is a large part of who I am, I also think…

"When I first went to college, some upperclassmen took me aside and asked me if I wanted to graduate. I said, 'Well, yes, of course, I do! ' Then they asked me what kind of grades I wanted to get. I said that I wanted to do very well. 'Then, you will have to learn to love studying, ' they said." "College is full of distractions, worries and problems. There 's always trouble but if you love studying then you will find a way to do what you need to do anyway, no matter what happens. If you don…
