The Egg Drop is a classic science class experiment for middle school or high school students. Students are given an egg to drop from a high point such as the roof of the school onto a hard surface as the parking lot. They must design a carrier for the egg to house it during the drop. Typical carriers are milk cartons or shoeboxes. The students can modify the carrier by adding wings parachutes foam interiors or even marshmallow cushions. The students form hypotheses about which of the egg…

While attending physics class today, Jon learned about the story of a brilliant scientist, Sir Isaac Newton among with one of his most famous questions, “If the apple falls, does the moon also falls?” Born on December 25, 1642, Sir Isaac Newton was a renowned english physicists and mathematicians, who was best known for his law of gravitational forces. In 1665, as young Isaac sits under an apple tree, he realized the fall of an apple. He proclaimed that the force pulling the apple onto the…

Sir Isaac Newton, born on the 4th of January, 1643; was an astronomer, philosopher, scientist, and a mathematician and physicist who developed the principles of modern physics. The Scientific Revolution of the 17th century credited him as a genius--his work was so brilliant and advanced that he was the first ever scientist to be knighted, which explains the "Sir" preceding his name. Although his discoveries would change the world of science, he did not care the fame that came with them. He was…

The mathematician that i pick was Albert Einstein March 14, 1879- April 18, 1955 . He was a very smart and intelligent man who had many great ideas that has had an impact on the world today. The reason i picked him is because although he had a slight disability, he was still very successful in life and was one of the most known people from the past. Not only was he wise in math, but he was also very wise in mathematics. Albert Einstein had a very different but unique personality and way of doing…

allowed him to study for a diploma at the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule in Zurich. He made a plan of graduating as a teacher in mathematics and physics. He got his PHD in 1905. He also created the theory of relativity. A lot of people thought that his theory was wrong but gamma rays prove that he was right. In 1921 he won the nobel prize in physics, for his work on the photoelectric effect. he thought that light consisted of particles called protons. The speed of of…

While looking for new meaning of life, people usually step on new perspectives which never appeal to them as solutions to their problems. The American Muslim minister and human rights activist Malcolm X describes his life of learning how to write and read during his time time in prison to imply his reinvention process in his article “A Homemade Education”. The author was “increasingly frustrated at not being able to express what I wanted to convey in letters that I wrote” so he started to…

Galatians 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not to be mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. The teachings of the Holy Bible teach us through scripture that what a man shall sow he shall also reap meaning that whether a person does good works or evil works to others the same shall be returned and done back to them. Such scriptures show that exactly how we act in our life will be done exactly back to us in this life and in the eternities. Be ye therefore merciful and you shall…

Albert Einstein is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His papers revolutionized modern science, paved the way for many advancements in physics and mathematics, and confused college students writing papers on him everywhere. As one of these confused students, I will be going into short detail on his early life and, if I can manage to explain it, revolutionary papers. Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany on March 14th, 1879, but…

I think that mistakes are not key in making discoveries. “Thomas Edison said that inventing was 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration,” as stated in “In Praise of Careful Science.” Inventing is hard, it needs a lot of dedication and work. Few people are lucky to be motivated by mistakes, like Percy Spencer and Isaac Newton. Sometimes mistakes may start the process of making a discovery, but to make a discovery you need careful experiments and study, and those take time and work.…

MT: The scientific method is the best method for determining what the universe around us is and how it works, this is provable based on the amount of evidence science has provided for the claims it has, while other methods rely on “faith” which by definition means you believe something without evidence. BP1: The scientific method has led to the conclusion that based on what we know about the state of the universe today we can demonstrate that the universe must have began with a singularity(a…
