    been created forces atoms of hydrogen to fuse together in nuclear reactions. The energy produced then gives off varying spectrums of light, such as infrared, ultraviolet, and visible light. The Sun also produces and gives off waves; theses consist of microwaves, radio waves and x-rays. One interesting phenomenon caused by the Sun is its solar winds. These winds are composed of energized particles that are given off by the Sun. The energy that is then produced from these stellar winds do their…

    Geometry and Eratosthenes In Professor Russ physical science class, there’s a plethora of subjects you, as a student, are bound to cover. This semester we had discuss over twenty different fields of science; the first being Geometry and Eratosthenes computing circumference of earth. We started the final semester off with two worksheets. The first was the “Angles of a Triangle”, we had to cut out the three angles of the triangle and piece them together in a shape. The three angles form a…

    This theory is the theory that the solar and stellar systems were developed from a primeval nebula. A nebula is a cloud of gas and dust in outer space. A primeval is standing for the earliest ages in the history of the world. This means Primeval nebula means a cloud of gas and dust in outer space a long time ago. It was how people think the galaxy was created. This is saying that the universe was always there. The galaxy was created. Then all the stars and planets were created. They were all…

    Why Do Earthquakes Occur?

    • 729 Words
    • 3 Pages

    seismology is to study how and why earthquakes occur. Predicting and projecting when, how, and why earthquakes occur can save millions of lives, while also saving billions in public taxpayer funds to rebuild after the damage. There are several types of gravitational forces that occur within the earth and cause earthquakes, such as plate tectonics and seafloor spreading. Understanding these actions can allow us to have better understanding of the causation of earthquakes. Plate tectonics is the…

    many properties of a wave. The wave crest is the highest point of a wave and the wave through is the lowest point. The wave height is the vertical distance from the trough to the crest. Along with the many properties, there is also different types of ocean waves. Capillary waves are very tiny waves with wavelengths being 1.7 centimeters. When wind blows over water, these are the first waves to form. When the wind keeps blowing persistently, the capillary wave will become a wind wave. There are…

No street lights. No cars. Just you and the sky and… the faint glow of a star. Seeing the first star that night, you make a wish and remember the first time you saw one. You still wonder what that speck of light is—How it got to be up there, why it sometimes is so bright and other times so faint, and how it…

    The purpose of this study was to further understand the cardiovascular system under normal conditions, stress and postural changes. To help illustrate the effects of the cardiovascular systems components the dive reflex and venous system were also tested. In the tilt table test, the response of effect of gravity and sympathetic activation of the heart were being examined to determine the response of BP, MAP, PP, HR, SV, CO and TPR during Effects of Posture on Blood Pressure (BP). It was…

    • 7 Pages

    Hitching a Ride on a Light Beam Physics is the most fundamental of the sciences, undergirding astronomy, chemistry, geology, biology, and—absent some paradigm-shattering revelation—human thought and action. Its analytical methods and machines have plumbed the unknown and the inaccessible, from the submicroscopic confines of the atomic nucleus to the billowing expanse of the observable universe. Physics has superseded our biochemically mediated perceptions of the world, replacing qualitative…
