Infinitesimal

Parent Teacher Associations and fundraising are present in schools throughout the country. It may be, however, that private funding for schools by parents and charities widens the gap between poor and rich schools. In “How Rich Parents Can Exacerbate School Inequality” published in The Atlantic, author Laura McKenna explains the reasons of those who support and those who discourage this type of financial assistance. This article is formal, with little deviation from the facts and arguments, and…

be able to produce a short list of research topics that have made a significant impact on the industry. In fact, all research that has ever been conducted (and reported) has made a measurable impact on today’s sheep industry, although it may be infinitesimal in some cases. My task in preparing this manuscript was to delve into 100 yr of animal (but primarily sheep-related) research literature and decide (with the assistance of 21 colleagues) which research has made an impact. Therefore, this is…

A kind of splendidly hued ocean slug has a preference for infinitesimal marine animals called zooplankton, and it feeds on them utilizing a technique that has never been seen: It catches them in a swallow by utilizing an agent. The ocean slug's clueless partners are hydroid polyps — tiny, coral-like creatures that live in colonies and feed on zooplankton. The ocean slug, known as a nudibranch (pronounced nooda-brank), regards the polyps as living fishing nets, energetically scooping them up and…

Pure water boils at 212˚ Fahrenheit (100˚ Celsius) at sea level, but water can also boil at temperatures as low as -90˚ Fahrenheit (theoretically). The reason for this phenomenon is pressure. “There is a direct correlation between pressure and temperature when it is dealing with the boiling point of water,” says Jacob Young, a mechanical designer at Blauch Brothers, Inc (Young, J.C. 2017). The pressure on Earth at sea level is 14.696 PSIA (Pounds per Square Inch Absolute). This pressure is…

Being a free black in the North wasn't all that easy. The Northern states consisted of; Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, and Rhode Island. Arid the 1860’s the Northern population of free blacks was 221,000 and the population of the free blacks in the South was 250,000 that was a drastic difference especially because the south was where all the slaves lived. Socially, politically, and economically the free blacks in the north had many restrictions. Free…

One of the first rules that is taught when learning Calculus is L’Hospital’s rule. The rule provides an easy technique to solve for a limit that has the indeterminate form 0/0. To get past this roadblock, L’Hospital’s rule allows for the individual differentiation of the numerator and denominator, and taking the limit of the result. If after the first application of the rule the limit once again produces the indeterminate form, it is possible to apply L’Hospital’s rule again. There is mystery…

During the time of Isaac Newton, changes of how people perceived scientific theories of how the motion of Earth was described, and the math concepts previously known as fluxions and infinitesimal calculus became a major branch in the today’s math curriculum. Isaac Newton is known as one of the greatest mathematicians of the 17th century Scientific Revolution for his contribution to modern physics by writing one of the major journal entries for science today, Principia. Isaac was a peculiar…

population would not be healthy. It has been proven that autistic symptoms have no direct correlation with child vaccinations. The ingredients of vaccines are not harmful to children, and the chance of contracting the illness after vaccination is infinitesimal. Vaccines have been shown to save countless lives and eradicate illnesses; they are a necessity in today’s society, where epidemics are ravaging worldwide. Child vaccinations are not harmful, and every child needs to be immunized to stay…

variables. The third laws states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Newton’s discovery of calculus led to way more discoveries of solving mathematical problems. In mathematics Newton was the original discoverer of the infinitesimal calculus. Newton's Philosophiae was one of the most important single works in the history of modern science. Calculus is a form of algebraic expression. Sir Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz discovered calculus. Newton discovered that a…

uses his new creation, calculus. But because Leibniz published his findings and work first, people gave him the credit for his finding of calculus. Although Leibniz and Newton showed their proof rather differently, their work was mainly based on infinitesimals. Newton then went on a campaign to prove that Leibniz had plagiarized his work. As he went on to campaign more and more, he eventually started getting more of the credit for the creation of calculus. In 1715, the royal society officially…
