General relativity

J.J Thomson was born in Cheetham Hill, a suburban area in Manchester, England on December 18, 1856. Thomson was a Nobel Prize winning physicist with his research that helped discover the electrons of an atom. J.J Thomson full name was Joseph John Thomson, He was an English physicist and mathematician. Joseph Thomson was considered to be a prodigy at his time, becoming the first to be 14 and attending college. Joseph Thomson’s father was a book seller who intended Thomson to become an engineer.…

Today’s theory is on the CW show called Legends of Tomorrow. If you have been watching the show since reason one than you know that Rip Hunter is missing from the show. In this article, I will be explaining where I think he is. First of all, I do think that he is alive. While he could have died, I do believe that he is still alive because of the proof that I have of his location. I believe that he was apprehended by the Reverse-Flash. In addition, I believe that he was the one that built the…

In the following, I will argue that Einstein’s discovery of the theory of special relativity was ultimately positive in terms of its benefits. First, Einstein’s discovery changed our understanding of space and time. Second, Einstein’s discovery has a positive effect on people’s daily lives, for example, the global positioning system (GPS). Third, Einstein’s theory of special relativity is a scientific theory, which according to dictionary.com is “a coherent group of propositions formulated to…

The purpose of the experiment was to determine how altering the amount of mass in a makeshift rocket will affect its distance. Our hypothesis stated that when more mass is added to the rocket, its distance will also increase. To investigate this theory, we conducted an experiment in which the mass of the rocket would be changed using differentiating amounts of water. To measure the height of the bottle rocket, we took rope and attached it to the girth of the liter bottle to determine how high…

Introduction The Time Machine and the Sound of Thunder are both science fiction stories. Their central plots are about Time Travel. Compare and contrast these two stories. This assessment has asked me to compare and contrast the stories of The Time Machine by H.G. Wells and The Sound of Thunder by Ray Bradbury. In this assignment the differences in language and characters will be compared and contrasted. The genre of the short story will be contrasted with the short novel. The different ways the…

Being known as “The Father of the Atomic Bomb” is a great accomplishment. To have this association as well as being known as “The Pope,” “The Prophet,” and “The Admiral” to his associates, an individual must be intelligent and have a background that allowed them to grow and prosper in physics (Latil 113). The man with this honor is Enrico Fermi and without him, who knows what would have happened in World War II. Enrico Fermi had multiple experiences and obstacles in his life, but all of the…

Pangea! It was the supercontinent that existed about 300 million years ago. According to Alfred Wegener’s theory, long before us humans existed all of the continents used to be one large landmass. Who is Alfred Wegener you might ask? Alfred Wegener was a German polar researcher, geophysicist, and meteorologist born in Berlin on November 1, 1880. I chose to research about Alfred Wegener’s life and his struggles because we are currently focusing on the continental drift theory in science class. He…

Abstract Henry Cavendish was a man of extraordinary intelligence but had a crippling social anxiety condition that isolated him from most all human interaction. He was born into a family of English Dukes on both his father and mother’s side and later became one of the wealthiest people in England. He was well educated and attended the best English schools but did not hold any type of formal degree. After college, Henry began following his father’s scientific footsteps. Being a follower of…

Einstein (March 14, 1879 to April 18, 1955) did many things during his lifetime he had many accomplishments and awards. Albert Einstein is highly respected by many people. Albert Einstein was physicist and mathematician who developed the theory of relativity. In 1921 Einstein won a Nobel Prize for physics and the photoelectric effect. The next decade, he moved to the United States after being tracked by Nazis. He also had a major impact on atomic energy. Later Albert Einstein worked on unified…

Eliot explores a myriad of interpretations of the meaning of logos in the Four Quartets through Einstein’s theory of Relativity, by examining it through the bending of space and time, ultimately using this lens to arrive at the conclusion of the Incarnation. This curvature of spacetime opened the doors to the reality of a new method of understanding the world: non-Euclidean Geometry. Non-Euclidean Geometry differs from several key postulates of traditional Euclidean Geometry. These reworked…
