Introductory physics

was also a great mathematician with his mathematical formula that illustrates how to get the volume of a sphere, and he was an amazing inventor too as he had numerous of inventions that we still use today. Archimedes contributions to the topic of physics are endless but, one of his important accomplishments is his Law of the Lever. When talking about levers you have to mention the three parts you need to be able to effectively use a lever. The first part is the two separate objects that can…

Math is all around, weather you notice it or not. Doctors use math on the daily to prescribe medicine that patients might need, check vitals, and see how hurt a patient may be. Math is very important and is needed in order for doctors to do their job. First off, doctors use math everyday to prescribe medicine to patients. In “ Medicine and math” Natasha Glydon states “Doctors need to figure out how many milligrams of medicine each patient will need, depending on their weight.” Doctors must use…

Stephen Hawking once said, “My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesn’t prevent you doing well, and don’t regret the things it interferes with. Don’t be disabled in spirit as well as physically.” Stephen Hawking is one of the smartest humans in the world and also has ALS. ALS is a debilitating disease that has no known cure, but Hawking doesn’t let that stop him. Christopher in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime also has somewhat of a…

RESEARCH TASK AND WRITTEN REPORT Many theoretical and experimental problems were not solved in the early twentieth century. There were attempts to explain the behaviour of matter on the atomic level with the laws of classical physics however they were not accurate nor successful. It was not until the period between 1900 and 1930 where a revolution occurred and a generalised formulation called quantum mechanic was developed. And since the understanding of the structure of the nucleus of the atoms…

In this paper, I will explain the event of a dog, Leo, hearing the sound of my pouring his dog-food into his food-bowl. I will explain this in an Aristotelian fashion using Aristotle's framework of explanatory schemata - the four causes - and by citing evidence from his theories of (a) hearing from De Anima II.8, (b) perception from De Anima II.12, and (c) potentiality and actuality from De Anima II.5. I will begin with an analysis of the event of Leo's hearing the pouring of the dog-food, and…

Sir Isaac Newton The famous scientist I chose is Sir Isaac Newton. He is famous for his work on universal gravitation. He also developed the three laws of motion. I wanted to know more about Newton because the only thing I knew was that an apple fell on his head and he started thinking about gravitation so that’s why I chose him. Isaac Newton was born in Woolsthorpe, United Kingdom. He is an English physicist and mathematician. He is maybe the most famous scientist in history. His father died…

but found an interest in mechanics and technology. His mother had wanted him to run the family farm, but his uncle and professor realized he was destined with a intellectual life. Sir Isaac Newton was a mathematician, and he made discoveries in physics(optics), and laws of motion and gravity. Sir Isaac Newton was a mathematician. Early brilliance in…

concepts of mass and energy help explain the motion of objects and even describe how the planets move in an orbit. The very first theories postulated by the Greek philosopher and scientist Aristotle built the foundation for what is to become the modern physics and started a unique paradigm on the world view. Followed by the disproval of his theories by the Italian scientist Galileo Galilei, the English physicist Newton in turn came up with a new set of laws to accurately describe the phenomenons…

blonde, maybe someone became president rather than a physics professor. There are an infinite number of possibilities which causes the Multiverse Theory to also be a heavily controversial topic. However, it is also just a theory and there is no definitive proof quite yet. That being said, there are hundreds of ideas that could possibly prove the theory. The Multiverse Theory was first created in 1952 by a man named Erwin Schrodinger, the same physics theorist…

“It would be better for the true physics if there were no mathematicians on earth.” Daniel Bernoulli once said this statement. Not many people know about Daniel Bernoulli. Daniel Bernoulli (He was also known as Daniel Bernovllivs), was a swiss mathematician that furthered the study of calculus and physics along with his family. He was known for his principle (Bernoulli’s Principle), but also did many other things with his time. He helped the field of hydrodynamics, and without knowing it helped…
