    Stars have been mystery for quite a while in history, but Bethe's work made certain conclusions about the nuclear reactions that are possible in star, and how much energy comes from these reactions. The main goal is to measure which reactions are favored to accurately predict how stars emit energy. Also it must be proven that heavy elements are not likely to be formed by calculating probabilities of Nuclear reaction based on favored energy. The most favorable reactions in stars include the…

    had attended Cambridge University from 1661-1665. He soon retreated to his grandparents house where he would soon start the study of calculus and the universal gravitation. I will start with how he discovered the laws of motion. Newton was a mathematician and a physics scholar. In 1666 sir Isaac Newton developed the theories of gravitation when he was only 23 years old. While he was at his grandparents he was sitting under an apple tree and then saw an apple fall from it. He had wondered why…

    The Mystery of Black Holes with Scientific Understanding If the sun were to suddenly becoming a black hole, what would happen to us here on Earth? To many people’s surprise the factor that would kill our life forms on earth would be the loss of heat and light and not from getting sucked into the black hole. There is not complete evidence to support that black holes exist but there are many signs and scientific theories that support there existence. Black holes can be a mysterious subject but…

    that is the highest point from the ground. When it reaches the lowest point of swing, the pendulum has the maximum kinetic energy because this is when it needs the most energy to push it in each direction. However, the pendulum has the minimum gravitation potential energy because it is closer to the…

    Ever since I was a little girl, I found myself fascinated with the intricacies of the human body. I would spend hours playing doctor or nurse with my sister, and even when she did not want to play with me I would improvise with my dolls. I would watch medical TV shows such as “Greys Anatomy” and I would continue to fall in love with the thought of medicine and helping people with their treatment and potentially saving their lives. Working as a medical scribe in an OBGYN office this past…

    formed on an ocean's surface. (Zmuida, n.d) Therefore, currents can be moved by tidal patterns. As the tides rise and fall, ocean currents will be moved. As indicated by the National Oceanic and Climatic Organization, tides are produced by the gravitation between the Earth, the sun and the moon. This gravitational force influences the Earth's oceans. Currents in the oceans will happen along the tides, creating tidal currents and flows. (Zmuida,…

    I visited the Griffith Observatory on January 23, 2016. I walked around looking everything and chose about what I write. The three things caught my attention was Center in the Universe show, the planets, and Moon Phases. First, I saw the Center in the Universe. It was an unforgettable experience because the place is arranged with comfortable and recumbent chairs. The dome shows a beautiful blue sky with clouds around. I felt literality as I was in the sky. The show started with all the lights…

    speed of the planet was always changing. This paradox, referred to as the "Kepler problem," prompted the development of calculus. In addition this law was said to proved crucial to Sir Isaac Newton in 1684–85, when he formulated his famous law of gravitation between Earth and the Moon and between the Sun and the planets, postulated by him to have validity for all objects anywhere in the universe (Keplers Laws of Planetary Motion, n.d.). Kepler’s third law was published a decade later in his book…

    gravity. In 1766, Henry won the Royal Society’s Copley Medal for factitious airs with Hydrogen being the most notable of his discovery. Several years later, Cavendish quantitatively measured the mass of the earth and completed Newton’s law of gravitation. Although he is credited with many scientific discoveries, Cavendish formally published only a few of his experiments. Most of his scientific work remained unknown until after his death in 1810. Through his personal manuscripts,…

    Science, one of the most influential subject, has made enormous impacts in Europe during the seventeenth century. Before the seventeenth century, Europe has made minimal progress in science related advancement. On the other hand, the Asian countries have made progress in scientific advancements until the Europeans rise (Goldstone 136). For example, the Chinese developed gun powder, compass, and printing press (Strasser “The Scientific Revolution”). In the seventeenth century, the century which…
