Gravity

Neutronium made of the smallest, densest stars called neutron stars. These stars hold the mass of more than 3 stars and only twenty kilometers wide. They are made almost entirely of neutrons held by intense gravity. This would be an ideal element zero, but it only exists under the immense gravity of a neutron star. So as far as we know right now, there still is no element…

by observing that planetary orbits were elliptical instead of circular. Galileo Galilei in 1609 made a scientific tool, the telescope and discovered gravity which was the missing tool and piece that Copernicus and Kepler needed to prove their hypothesis. In 1689 Isaac Newton observed the works of Galileo and other scientists and concluded that gravity is real and…

Determinism; The Proof in Newton The Great Man Theory states that people are not mere products of their backgrounds, but are great because of how they’re born. For example, if someone was born into greatness, they would be disproving the Great Man Theory, but if the course of their life was changed because of one event, they would be proving the Great Man Theory. The Great Man Theory is an idea thought of by Thomas Carlyle. Carlyle was a Scottish philosopher, born in 1795. Another word to…

Healthy joint The knee joint is a synovial joint and connects the femur to the tibia and consists of two joints the tibiofemoral joint, which joins the tibia to the femur and the patellofemoral joining the kneecap to the femur. These two joints work together to form a hinge joint allowing the knee to bend and straighten and to also rotate slightly from side to side. Muscles There are two main muscles groups of the knee, the hamstrings, quadriceps and muscles of the calf all work to flex,…

turn a turbine, hydroelectric dams use the energy generated by gravity on liquid water to turn the turbine. On one side of the dam is a reservoir which holds water at a higher elevation than the river on the other side of the dam. This relatively higher elevation is what gives the water the potential energy to turn the turbine when it begins to flow ("Hydroelectric Energy."). Potential energy is calculated by the force due to gravity multiplied by the change in height of the matter. So, a…

Startling Physics Of The Universal Solvent... " There isn't anything softer and weaker than water, and nonetheless there isn't anything better for assaulting arduous and rugged things." We are all cognizant of the fact that 65% of our bodies and 75% of earth is composed of water and also are familiar to some of its properties yet it stands out to be intensely mysterious. Several of its properties are so strange that even to this day they elude scientific apprehension. • Mpemba Effect: A…

Fundamentals of Orbital Mechanics This chapter applies the principles of physics for describing motion of artificial satellites and planets which are moving under the influence of gravitation force. It also presents an accurate gravity model for flight dynamic applications (for use in subsequent chapters). 2.1 Kepler’s Laws of Planetary Motion In 1609 Kepler has presented his three laws for describing motion of planets around the Sun. These laws are empirical because Kepler has found them…

This would create a proficient way to get around the planet. With the dome being circular, whenever we need to move the dome can roll to where ever you want. All you have to is push a button on one of the tubes and it allows the dome to lose its gravity, allowing it to roll. While creating…

My biggest enemy in my life, bigger than my older brother best friend; who burnt a welt on my cheek for taking too long in the bathroom, is gravity. Couple days ago, during one of my numerous Personal Flight Device (PFD) tests, I was reaching a new apex with my current prototype: 7 inches off the ground, a perfect 90 degrees up, when the right exhaust gave out on me like an old pair of stilettos. The unstable engine sent me tumbling into the earth, turning me into a loose ferris wheel.…

free from his handicaps and begins to dance gracefully with a ballerina in which “[n]ot only are the laws of the land abandoned, but the law of gravity and the laws of motion as well” (Vonnegut 36). Not only does Harrison break the Amendments by removing his handicaps, he dances with such fluidity that it appears as if he is also breaking the laws of gravity and motion which represents his insurgency against the government. Harrison is only able to express himself and achieve his best without…
