Light

Bending light is a very interesting subject, we can learn about all the different densities, wavelengths and angles of light. Trump is very despicable to Mexicans and if he will start a revolution against us, the Americans will be using infra-red light similar to the storm trooper's blaster from Star Wars to take us down. If we can reflect their shots, then we can send those lasers right back at them. My hypothesis states that if we can shine light through multiple transparent objects with…

In the early part of the 19th century the scientific community was in the midst of a debate regarding the nature of light, specifically whether it was a particle or a wave. Isaac Newton argued that light behaved like a particle whilst a man by the name of Christian Huygens argued that light was in fact a wave. Unfortunately, as Newton was the president of the Royal Society at the time and many other scientists would simply take what he said to be the truth, this meant that few scientists of the…

What will stay lit longer a lemon light bulb or a lime? The light bulb is lit up because of the acid in the fruit. If the lime has more acid in it then, it will keep the light bulb glowing longer. To tell this you need to know what has more acid in it. The light bulb changes the acid into electricity to power it. The light bulb uses conductivity, acidity, and electricity. Acidity is a source of electricity and comes from some fruits and vegetables. It is a substance that over time with help…

Introduction: Have you ever notice a moth circling street light, porch lights, or car lights? Pointless, right? Well, the moths have a very specific reason for why they circle and spiral lights. In Khristo Boyadzhiev’ paper, he shows that the moths take an equiangular spiral path. Moths navigate by a point light source called transverse orientation. This source being the moon which was developed well before humans’ invention of the light bulb. One reason behind the spiraling happens to come from…

The Oresteia takes place is one where light and darkness are just two of many images used to enhance all viewpoints of the society that “Clytaemnestra” “Agamemnon” and “The Libation Bearers” occupy. The evolution is shown throughout the tragedy of The Oresteia, beginning in “Agamemnon”. The first play begins with the watchman noticing a signal fire upon a mountain, which lights up the night sky, therefore, alerting Argos that the Trojan War is finally over. Light and darkness oppose and support…

different objects are due to the ability of the compounds in those objects to absorb specific wavelengths of light. In other words, the colors that are seen are the ones that are not absorbed. The wavelengths of light that are absorbed are determined by the electrons in a compound.1 As electrons move around, they can absorb energy and become excited. The energy, and thus the wavelength of light, the electrons absorb is determined by the type of atoms found in the compound and how those atoms…

Silly poems and deep, dark truths are the world of Shel Silverstein. The lights in the attic always seem to be on; however, if one takes a hard look at Silverstein’s work, one must look beyond the lights in the attic to delve through the rest of the house to come up with a whole picture of who Shel Silverstein was. As with most authors, the face put forward in public for consumption rarely matches the behind-the-scenes person who keeps personal secrets away from society. All understand this…

I have always been fascinated with the night sky and have enjoyed looking up at it without the light pollution. While living in Las Vegas I would have to commute at least an hour past Red Rock or Valley of Fire to escape the bright lights of the city. Since moving to a small town I have been able to enjoy watching the moons and her phases, meteor showers, and seeing where the constellations are in the night sky. William Herschel was a German composer, teacher, and musician residing and…

One such similarity is that in the beginning, True Son planned on killing himself so he…
