Gravity hills

Proportionality and Newton’s Second Law of Motion Abstract How does increasing the mass of an object affect its acceleration? Is acceleration dependent of the mass of an object? How do they relate? Defining and testing Newton’s second law of motion familiarizes us with this relationship. In this experiment, we use the mass of an object as an independent variable to come to a conclusion about force and acceleration. By increasing the mass of an object at an incline, one can observe the change in…

lands and Vietnam’s destruction. In addition, the film, Apocalypse Now, presents the Vietnam War as a situation where morality remains unchecked until it threatens the motive of the political powers in control and that allows soldiers to dismiss the gravity of the war. The Vietnam War, like every war in human history, revealed the darkest qualities of man simply due to his disregard for his humanity while simultaneously attempting to prove that his stance is right over the…

Modernism, a revolution movement started in the 20th century, is a style when “form follows function”, as quoted from Louis Sullivan, the famous Frank Llyod Wright’s mentor. Wright was one of the pioneers of Modern Architecture and his masterpiece, the Fallingwater, was perhaps his best interpretation of Modernism. Located in rural Southwestern of Pennsylvania, the Fallingwater is so popular that it is often mentioned in many architecture books regarding its application to the site. B.B.…

What I believed to be the cold dead hands of the grim reaper plucked me off the ground and dragged me up the hill. A light much brighter than a million suns filled my eyes, and I heard someone with a formal voice call my name. To keep the light out of my eyes I kept them close passing back out and waking up when the carriage I was in ran over a rock in the middle of the dirt road. Samuel and Julia were siting across from me or at least I thought I saw them until Julia blew a cloud of green…

As showed above, when constructing aqueducts, three floors formed a downward slope, which meant that liquid water can flow naturally due to the gravity. On the top of aqueducts, cover plates were designed so that clean water would not be polluted or evaporated. On these cover plates, voids were reserved for examination and ventilation. By applying friction force tension between granites, aqueducts…

My fourteenth birthday was a landmark day for more reasons than I can count. Besides being a day of receiving blessings from elders, gifts from family and friends; sitting in at the ‘havan’ whose sacred fire would purify my soul; protect me, 7th of April of 2010 is etched in my mind and heart. That day I visited Kanya Ashram, a shelter for orphaned girl children, in my neighborhood. Being a teenager, friends and sports took center stage in my life, which were interspersed with bouts of teenage…

strange occurrence of Gernon feeling an increased forward momentum and weightlessness for about five seconds, when travelling through the vortex of clouds. This could be explained by using the nature of dark energy, which acts against the force of gravity. However, the amount of energy required for this is extremely high, and it is very unlikely that Gernon’s aircraft even experienced a tiny bit of that amount of required energy (Bermuda Triangle Exposed,…

The expansion of the frontier pushed Native American people out of their native lands, and continuously forced them back until opportunistic settlers seized and further occupied the lands. Cather grew up in Virginia and moved to Nebraska when she was eight years old in 1884 with her father, always fascinated by her immigrant neighbors (Cather 499). When she entered university in _____, she began exploring her zeal for writing, and eventually published her first novel, ___. Within this time, she…

Five... People are anxious for this moment to be a success. Four... U.S. citizens grit their teeth, hoping the lift off will be a success. Three... Butterflies. Butterflies fill stomachs during this nerve racking moment. Two... Families of Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, and their crew hold their breath. One... Blast off. Cheers ring all across the country, “to the moon!” Rather to a deserted area that could serves as a good representation to the moon. There is an abundance of evidence supporting…

19th and 20th centuries? When this happened, our principal Josh Wasileski was quick with response and set up safe spaces for us to communicate our feelings over the event. Supporting Point: After the election of Donald Trump, many people felt the gravity of the situation and felt unsafe in the school. After many people expressed a multitude of emotions in response, Mr.Wasielewski mandated that the entire 3rd period class would be reserved for venting and any expressions of…
