mixture. When an external magnetic field is applied, there is a quantized interaction between the magnetic field itself and the magnetic moment of the proton. Thus, the magnetic moment of the proton either applies with or against the magnetic field depending on direction the proton is spinning. In the alpha spin state, the magnetic moment of the proton is applied with the magnetic field, while in the beta spin state, the magnetic moment is applied against the magnetic field. A proton that is in…

short years later when C.M. Joiner hit it big, Dallas’s role became even bigger. When I say big I mean it, Dallas was not only the center for oil in Texas but in Oklahoma as well. Banks were making loans to develop oil fields, and Dallas became the financial center for ALL oil fields in the Texas Panhandle, the Permian Basin, East Texas, Gulf Coast, and Oklahoma. This big involvement with the oil industry put off most thoughts of the great depression as well. After a long campaign in the years…

First, I like From Potter’s Field because the book was the last book in the series. Books that end the series are always so well made and everything comes together very well at the end, such as Gault dying. I also liked the book because the amount that of times Gault showed up. Gault…

Soldiers kill and watch people, ranging from close friends to the enemies they are fighting against getting killed. This leaves a lasting impact. A lot of soldiers who return from war suffer from the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD, which is “a debilitating anxiety disorder that occurs after…

The article Cosmic Turbulence May Spawn Monster Magnetic Fields discusses a lab experiment that aimed to investigate the mysterious and powerful properties of magnetism in space. Magnetic waves are extremely prominent in our universe, which consists of dense galaxy clusters and vast voids of space separating these clusters. While it seems obvious magnetism would be present in the various galaxy clusters, as they are active regions of space, astronomers have also discovered a very strong magnetic…

girl aspired to be. Bobbie Rosenfeld was the most influential women to the other women of the world who wanted to become athletes. She was, compassionate, dedicated, and most of all she was hard working. Rosenfeld was a role model on and off of the field, ice, court, and track.

Due to an extreme amount of carelessness and selfishness, the mother of the estate Lyubov Andreevna Ranvskaya loses the funds that have been allowing her to keep her family in a comfortable position financially. Throughout the play, Chekhov uses many items to represent symbolism, such as the cherry orchard itself to represent the golden age of…

nexploded ordnance presents problems to workers and the general public as these explosive devices have been left behind from world wars and other conflicts. Over time these devices have been overlain by sediment at which point they have been buried to where they pose certain dangers to the public, and workers that are contracted for infrastructure projects. There is estimated to be around 15 million acres in unexploded ordnance in the U.S. alone. Geophysicists use Magnetics in order to locate…

Few social programs have the reach and impact as schooling. However, due to its overarching nature there exists a massive dichotomy in the most effective way to employ the immense social program. It seems as if experts have divided themselves into two camps of thought surrounding the underlying structure of education. On one side exist those who see school as a chance to early distinguish students in order to individualize the learning experience. In this faction, an idealized meritocracy…

million-degree atmosphere and drives the solar wind.” (IRIS mission overview) This mission could help us to understand how material in the Suns corona reaches temperatures thousands of times greater than its surface. It may also explain how magnetic fields cause solar flares. All of these things will help us to understand…
