In Flanders Fields

experiment demonstrates the laws very well, however, it is not particularly useful for a comprehensive investigation as the magnet is out of view whilst in the tube. Lenz’s law can also be demonstrated through passing a metal sheet through a magnetic field and observing the slowing of the metal sheet, however, there are limited results from this experiment as the resources aren’t readily available. One of the benefits from this investigation is that the magnetic braking force acts continuously…

Science is one of the few disciplines that continues to develop in our society, whether it is through technology or new discoveries. When considering my own relationship to the world of science, I often consider the past science classes I’ve taken. Thinking back to learning about the scientific method in elementary school to constructing science fair projects for six consecutive years had me realize how far I had come without really questioning science. The year I had made it past the first…

While this is in fact a more recent study the same holds true for older boomtowns. Sour Lake experienced a huge influx of unmarried men to a town with little else to offer other than the work in the oil industry. The town had no bars, no theater, no stores, essentially no businesses other than the hotel. Many of these single men arrived with no shelter or food and no way to attain these things. Consequently, these men had a lot of time on there hands in which to get into trouble. As a…

The memory of the Khmer Rouge and the prison facility S-21 is one that is shadowed by repressed memories, lack of knowledge of the events, and apathy of the horrors that took place. By analyzing the similarities, differences, and the purpose of the book and movie we can see the issues that we have today in memorializing the genocide in Cambodia. The book Voices from S-21, and the movie Khmer Rouge: Killing machine, try and address the misconceptions that the perpetrators have in their…

magnets are the most common ones. Once they are magnetized they stay so (although they can lose much of their magnetic force). They can be metals found in nature. Temporary magnets hold the properties of a magnet while in a magnetic field, but lost these properties once the field goes away. An example of this would be a paper clip that is charged and can act as a magnet for a limited time. Electromagnets are wires wrapped around a metal center (usually iron). The wires have a current flowing…

They’ll use a nail and a battery to create a magnetic field. It’ll turn the nail into a magnet. Students should be sure to write down their observations throughout the experiment. Students will wrap the center portion of the wire around the nail 10 times so that it forms a coil. They should have extra wire…

The mini torsion device that will be designed for this senior design project will apply a torsional load to a small cylindrical sample with a diameter of 5 mm or 6 mm. The device will need to fit under an optical microscope and will not be able to exceed the weight limits of the sample stage on the optical microscope so that Raman microscopy can be performed on the sample while it is under a torsional load. The device will also need to collect data and calculate the angle of twist of the sample.…

variable frequency eddy current sorter (VFECS) prototype to separate different nonferrous metal and alloy of size smaller than 1 inches. VEFECS is a solid state technology which operates at variable high frequency range between 1 – 10 KHz. The magnetic field frequency plays an important role in sorting of different nonferrous metals and alloys from each…

more than anything, so I will incorporate ways of how my claim can improve their job, and how their job may change due to the shift. As my intended major is mechanical engineering, it is important for me to research problems in mechanical engineering field, because these might be the problems I will face in the future, so it is important for me to not only be aware of the problems, but what I should do now to prepare for them. As of now, I think the most effective genre to argue and address my…

skills in order to put together a strategic data storage plan and present it to Google’s potential new clients. The job I looked at that requires the most skills is a Global Account Director for Oil Field services at SAP. This position requires a vast knowledge of the oil field as well as the oil fields data handling processes. You must have great organizational skills since this job makes you the main contact for a large oil company. You will be approached with many diverse problems and will…
