I chose the topic MRIs. I will discuss the following topics, what an MRI is, what is an MRI used for, and How should you prepare for an MRI and the risks and benefits. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an examination that uses a magnetic field and three dimensional detailed anatomical images to take pictures of the inside of the body. In many cases, MRI gives different information about structures in the body that can be seen with an ultrasound, X-ray, or even a computed tomography scan or as…

and radio wave energy to create images of the organs and tissues, such as the brain. It is a scan that is used to detect things such as tumors, infections and injuries. It is often used after an x-ray or CT scan is done to gather more information. This paper will discuss MRI in depth such as how an MRI works, its use in society, the differences between MRI and other scans and the future for MRI. An MRI consists of a…

what’s the science behind quicksand? Well, quicksand is a suspension, which is a soupy mix of liquids and solids. In the real-world, it’s sand flooded with water — in this experiment, it’s cornstarch mixed into water, but it’s the same idea. When there’s lots of water between the solid bits, the quicksand can flow like a liquid (this is why you can fall into quicksand — the liquid-y substance can’t support any weight). But, when it’s compressed (like when someone falls in, or when you slap the…

Magnetic Advances division is willing to pay for the rights to Z-25 is one of the main issues in this negotiation. • Another issue is to whom Magnetic Advances is allowed to sell to, if we at Audio Components decide to sell the rights. Whether they are allowed to sell to Audio Components competitors specifically or El-Tek competitors as a whole. These prohibitions are key value drivers in any potential deal. This is to gain value from the competitive advantage of having the new Z-35 technology…

This is influenced by the magnetic line of force. Magnetic line of Force, on a magnet, will start from the north pole and end at the south pole of the magnet. These magnetic fields are what will draw magnets to each other's opposite magnetic pole. This explains what will happen when a large magnet grabs a smaller magnet and brings it to one of its magnetic poles, opposite of the smaller magnets pole facing it. This means that when two of the same poles of…

cross section of the arm supports. They have requested our assistance in evaluating several materials through experiments and simulations. The purpose of this experiment is to test these various materials and to recommend a material choice and cross section geometry that will minimize deflection of the arm supports. The following sections of this memorandum will detail several facets of the experiment. Section 2 will present the results of the experiment in an objective manner and detail any…

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.…

The overall objective of this lab was to verify Bernoulli-Euler beam theory for the lip-loaded cantilever and use that to calculate the Poisson ratio for the material in this case 6061-T6 aluminum. This was done by having to different objectives for each part of the Lab. Part one was use electrical resistance strain gage, this was to measure the strain a cantilever beam as it undergoes a known deflection. We would then compare the measurements with that of the strains predicted by simple beam…

nearly nine thousand people died from the two earthquakes in April and May 2015, and the remote villages had many homes destroyed from the quakes (Bhandari and Najar). Around noon local time, the first major earthquake hit Nepal, which registered a moment magnitude of 7.8 (Rafferty). Both countries, Haiti and Nepal were in dire need of aid relief. Richard…

Never will words be able to do justice to the torture, sadness, and pure loss of hope experienced within the barbed wire fences of concentration camps. Primo Levi’s recount of his time as a prisoner is the closest anyone on the outside will ever come to truly being able to understand it without experiencing the imprisonment first hand. Human beings were destroyed in these camps; deprived of their humanity and minimized to just a number. The Nazi Regime stripped these people of their past,…
