    certain part of the song “Sivad” by Miles Davis. During the 9’13” mark in the song “Sivad”, there is a sporadic playing coming from the electric guitar as the rest of the band played their instruments with certain amount of calmness to it[]. This contrast allows the electric guitar to sound even more out of a place in the song which ultimately creates the electric guitar to hold such feeling of fierce intensity. [] Although in “Homage for Charles Moffett” there is no rhythm section performed by…

    In his childhood because of the way that his parents were he had the opportunity to have good education and took advantage of it. The effortlessness of a science book he got when he was ten may have been what inspired him and what nourished his longing for to learn more. His best subjects were always math and physics. I believe that the support Ernest got for intellectual growth was from his parents is the thing that contributed the most to his study of the atom, and other later accomplishments.…

    “No,” he answers. “They use them. Force them to build weapons and other junk…” He pauses, stepping around me. “What’re you doing? The power core’s blown.” “It’s not,” I whisper, eyes never leaving the weapon. “What?” I snap the tiny casing back on with a pop. “Said it’s not. It’s old and a bit slow, still works though. All it needed was a few wires switched and the core lineament adjusted.” I flip the switch on and the laser gun lights up, a soft purring tingling my palm. I aim at the wall and…

    Asal Bahmani 12.20.16 Franey//Adams Chem P.6 Going back through history the experiments, discoveries, and works of past scientists such as Democritus, Dalton, Thomson, and Rutherford have afforded us the opportunity to draw from their ideas to formulate a modern view and accurate understanding of the atom. Thanks to the evolution of atomic models. In the beginning, Democritus viewed the atom as a tiny, solid, round sphere, that was unable to be cut. He created the first model of an atom, that…

    Chemical changes are everywhere from everyday things such as baking to scientific things such as changing one gas into another. Physical changes are changes that can be observed with senses and change a certain property or properties to a substance but it still remains chemically the same. This can include changes in the state of matter, size and shape. Chemical changes are when the substance is changed chemically with its properties changing with it. The substance with change from one substance…

    “Steel plates are commonly attached to each other with rivets, which are slipped into holes in the plates and rounded over with hammers. The hotness of the rivets makes them easier to round over, but their hotness has another important advantage in providing a tight fit. What is it? Explain why.” This relates to one of the characteristics of heat, in that heated objects expand, then contract when the temperature decreases, since the molecules move faster in heat and slow in the cold. The hot…

    Membrane Potential in the RMP The membrane potential in the Resting Membrane Potential, or the RMP, is the little bit of voltage or electrical potential going across from the membrane of its regular resting voltage. This is caused because of gradients that make the ions go across the membrane of a cell through ion channels because ions are not soluble so they have to go through channels. These channels are called ion channels that are watery pores allowing ions to get through according to their…

    These actually work faster than fuses do. RCCBs jobs are to detect if there is a difference between neutral and live wires. This device disconnects itself when it senses a difference between the two. This is because the electric current is not balanced as it should be. Once it disconnects itself, it will be much safer as there will be a less chance for electrocution. These types of circuits are widely used where there is a need for fire protection such as lighting circuits…

    The derivation of maximum power transfer theorem for purely resistive DC circuits. V_L= E x R_L/(R_L+r) P_L= 〖V_L〗^2/R_L = (E^2 〖R_L〗^2/〖(R_L+r)〗^2 )/R_L = (E^2 R_L)/〖(R_L+r)〗^2 Calculating the most favourable value of the load resistor for maximum power transfer from a DC source with a internal resistance. When any arbitrary load resistance may be selected. Let R_L= kr ( k is a positive number) P_L= kr/〖(kr+r)〗^2 E^2= k/〖(k+1)〗^2 E^2/r f = k/〖(k+1)〗^2 = 1/(k+2+k^(-1) )…

    Roller coaster engineers work with a design team in a variety of tasks concerning the construction of roller coasters. The main duties involve deciding what type of roller coaster to use, determining how to place the track, developing the controls systems and verifying that the ride is safe for the public. Generally, engineers try to make rides exciting by including special arrangements that enhance some element of the ride. Loops in the track, embankments and the use of natural scenery are some…
