Albert Einstein introduced his theory of General Relativity in 1915 (New Site). This theory includes a field equation for gravity, which consists of three terms: two tensors that represent space-time and the energy-momentum tensor. The energy momentum tensor represents the matter and energy in the universe which bends space-time to produce gravity (lecture 1). His equation is seen in Figure 1. Figure 1 On the right side of the equation is the matter and energy tensor and, on the left, are…
have been evaluated first. Anyhow, I tried: base * height * 1//2 and base * 1//2 * height They both worked just fine, but in the end I decided to go with 0.5 instead of 1//2. I think it is fair to think that the area of some triangle may not be integers. Later, I figured…
Angie Gunawardana Mr. Larlham Geometry Project- 6 5 May 2016 Sophie Germain was born in Paris, France on April 1, 1776. Her parents names were Marie- Madeline and Ambroise- Francois, and she was the second of the three daughters, they were a wealthy upper class French family. She began having an interest in mathematics when the Bastille fell and everyone was confined inside their homes, she would go inside her father’s library and read. She fell in love with a story about Archimedes and wanted…
Indeed, electrostatic phenomena are the sights we see most of the day. Some of us may have fun to rub a plastic ruler on our hands and then bring it closer to our friend's hair until it appears that a few strands of hair stood up because of it. Or try using a balloon, rub it into our hair and then stick it on the wall, see what happens? The balloon will stick to the wall. Or on a large scale electrostatic phenomena that you often see in an emergency because of lightning static load static…
BIRD SWARM ALGORITHM: BSA is a new meta-heuristic swarm intelligence algorithm proposed by Xian-Bing Meng [35] , inspired by social behavior and interaction of birds. Different birds gather food in different ways. Foraging is the searching for food resources or gathering food either for immediate consumption or future storage. Birds forage in flocks because they gather more information in flocks than their own intelligence. Group foraging boost-up the chances of detecting predators. While…
Anselm’s ontological argument The existence of the God have been a question probably for the whole history of humanity. There are a plenty of arguments for God’s existence, and in this paper I am going to review Anselm’s argument for the existence of the being nothing greater than which can be conceived, one of the strongest among others. At first, I am going to summarize the argument, and then, as every argument for the God’s existence has its own defects, I am going to answer the following…
This theory says that in order for an electron to orbit the nucleus of an atom, the number of wavelengths that it takes to get around must be quantized; meaning an integer number. Atoms have different energy states each with a specific energy. Photons (basic units of light) interact with electrons by giving or taking away energy. A photon with correct energy and wavelength hits an atom’s electrons, allowing the electrons…
A. i) The rate of a reaction is the change of a substance’s concentration per units of time. The reaction rate of an experiment is dependent on many things including concentration, presence of a catalyst, and, most importantly, temperature. Temperature and reaction rate are directly correlated, which means that as one increases, so does the other. It is a general approximation that the rate of a reaction will increase by a factor of two for every 10°C jump in temperature. Increased temperature…
Task 1 Data Input: The data input that will be entered for the receipt is the staff name, the date and the film the customer would like to watch. For example Deadpool or Goosebumps as the cinema is only showing these two films at the moment. What are the choices in the program and what are the outcomes? The choices you can make in the program are the number of tickets. For example how many tickets the customer would like to buy. The prices of the tickets that the customer has bought. For…
INTRODUCTION Memory is the central of cognitive system. Memory is considered as storehouse of items. Without memory the cognitive system is struck here and now.It is the repositary of knowledge that guide intelligent action or make sense of world. Basically the memory system has 3 important tasks to perform. Encoding ,Storage & Retrieval. Informations from the world will be represented and stored.Some theories hold that memory is a network of nodes that associate connections among…
