Blake Smith Mr. Engstrom Physics May 8, 2017 Eta Carinae The Eta Carinae, previously known as Eta Argus, has a luminosity five million times greater than the suns. The Eta Carinae has two stars and for examples we will name them η Car 1 and η Car 2. η Car 1 has a mass of about ~100 to 200 solar masses, which equals about 1.99 × 1030 in kilograms. η Car 1 also has a 60 to 800 solar radius, which is 6.957 00 × 108 meters. η Car 1 has a 5,000,000 Luminosity. η Car 1 has a temperature of 9,400…
French Imperial Project: Formation of a Proto-Nationalist Identity in Indochina “Gentlemen, we must speak louder and more honestly! We must say openly that indeed the higher races have a right over the lower races,” declares Jules Ferry passionately, the twice prime minister of France. The time of imperial expansion dawned upon the French, and the competition for markets among imperial powers grew, waiting for no one. Realizing this, Ferry sought new sources of income for the nation,…
I am originally from a small rural community in Ohio which has poor regulation on the air and water quality which humans depend on to sustain life. Throughout the city, hydraulic fracking has become a common method to obtain energy. This method of obtaining energy is misconceptualized to be a cleaner alternative to oil and coal, however, with a first hand on experience with living in this area allows me to witness otherwise. This city is known as Youngstown, Ohio. Hydraulic fracking is a…
Homers’ epic, the Iliad, is the earliest written account of Greek warfare composed circa 750 BC. In his epic, Homer describes a style of warfare that, at first glance, appears to be alien to hoplite warfare that was present in the 5th-century BC. However, there is literary evidence in the Iliad that might contest that. Additionally, recent archaeological discoveries reinforce the idea that hoplite warfare may not be as clear cut as convention suggests. While Homeric and hoplite warfare may not…
Scope The purpose of this project is to summarize the Montney shale gas play that Progress Energy is operating in. We will be looking at and comparing the different wellbore designs they have, such as lengths, casing sizes, stages, frac tonnage. We will also be analyzing 8 wells in the Lily area and provide thorough information on well architecture, interval problems, number of bits/trips, and a day’s vs depth for all eight wells. We are going to analyze on the eight-well pad, located in…
shooting stars are actually meteoroids falling to Earth, they are very beautiful to look at in the night sky, but are plagued by this common misconception and by calling them a shooting star only adds to the confusion. The Solar Views article “Star Formation, Life, and Death” explains the reason stars die is due to the outer layers of the star are no longer able to resist the central force of gravity, which pulls the outer matter inward toward its core. What happened next depended on the star’s…
form a sense of identity. In this stage an individual will experience identity and role confusion. Puberty is important because it develops ego identity. With this, an adolescent finds their new roles to help them discover the things that they are curious of. This helps an individual to cope with the problems and difficulties that may encounter during identity versus role confusion. According to Erikson, society in which an adolescent live plays a big role on their identity formation.…
In the formation of one’s character and value structure childhood plays an important role. Childhood as a significant area of human experience is not given ample emphasis as far as literature is concerned. In Indian English literature also women characters are widely depicted and critics have evaluated them. The girlhood of a woman is a critical part of her identity formation. In literature this period of identity formation of a woman is by and large un- examined and un- explored. Childhood…

fact, as many young adults struggle with self-identity, they often also tend to be affected by what their cultural background has to say about them—individually. In an article title, “The Role of Social and Personal Identities in Self-Esteem Among Ethnic Minority College Students,” we come across various conducted studies in which all data and analysis revolved around the supposition that personal identity, or self-identity, is critical to the formation of self-concept and psychosocial…
