“Popular Mechanics” by Raymond Carver and “Hills Like White Elephants” by Ernest Hemingway deal with an important human issue in life. In Popular Mechanics the couple fights over their relationship and who keeps their baby. “In Hills Like White Elephants” the couple fights with each other about whether or not to have an abortion. The human issue in the stories is that couples should always communication in every situation in their daily life. However, the couple in these stories have…

Erwin Schrödinger, an Austrian born chemist, gained his famed for his contributions to quantum mechanics. Some of his contributions to chemistry and quantum mechanics were his books describing his techniques and basic info behind his work, his paradox, Schrodinger’s cat, which created a lot of new discoveries in chemistry, and his equation that changed how many people viewed the atom and its electrons. At at young age, Schrodinger was strongly influenced by the philosophy of Austrian philosopher…

An auto mechanic is what I want to be when I’m out of high school because I like to work on cars. I think it is fun to work on vehicles and to get dirty. An automotive repair and maintenance worker makes $17.82 an hour and $37,060 a year. Performing mechanical maintenance duties to ensure efficient maintenance and repair, install, and inspect production equipment as well as maintain production facility. Some of the things you need to do to be an auto mechanic is you need a high school diploma or…

Evangelista Torricelli was a great scientist in the times of the Renaissance. At a young age, Torricelli lost his father. He went to study with a Camaldolese monk and also his uncle, Benedetto Castelli. It was there when he was taught mathematics, mechanics, hydraulics, and astronomy. In return of all the gifts he received, Torricelli became Castelli’s assistant. Torricelli became increasingly more interested in astronomy, but chose to pursue mathematics as he saw how Galileo, his idol, was…

we refer to the laws of classical mechanics: for example, Newtonian Laws (1-3), the Law of Conservation of Energy, the Law of Conservation of Momentum, etc. (Robert Coolman, “What is Classical Mechanics”) In contrast, we turn to the laws of quantum mechanics when working to analyze micro-objects and relations. Examples of these include quantized properties, waves of light, etc. (Robert Coolman, “What is Quantum Mechanics) What’s more, laws of classical mechanics—study of macro objects—are useful…

General relativity is fundamentally incompatible with quantum mechanics- they have been at odds with each other since its discovery in 1915- relativity breaks down at the subatomic level and vice versa. A conjecture by two physicists may finally reconcile relativity with quantum mechanics and put an end to the chain of inconsistencies began by Hawking’s information paradox. Albert Einstein first discussed the concept of quantum entanglement in a 1935 paper co-written with his colleagues Boris…

Mouse Killing Car Project While building and testing a mousetrap car the builder must understand a few simple but, vital mechanics. The vehicle will be propelled by the pulling force of a small mousetrap. The end goal of building this car is to have it go from one end of the room to the other on top of carpet. Leverage, kinetic energy, and friction; are things to take into consideration while testing and building the car. There are two types of levers to keep in mind. The first is the lever arm…

In 1905 German physicist Albert Einstein published the first paper of a new age of Physics. His theory of special relativity, followed by general relativity and the Einstein Field Equations in 1915, and the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics in 1925 combined to form a more significant shift in natural philosophy…

The Quantum-Mechanical Model of the Atom Introduction: The theory of quantum mechanics explains the behavior of the particles, such as photons (particles of light) and electrons, in the atomic and subatomic realms. Since the electrons of an atom determine many of its chemical and physical properties, quantum mechanics is foundational to understanding chemistry. Quantum-Mechanical Model- a model that explains the strange behavior of electrons Electromagnetic Radiation- a type of energy…

ISE SUMMER PROJECT 2015 Probability, randomness, and chance should be central in any STEM pedagogical model. The concepts of randomness and chance play a very significant role in the essence of all sciences, and especially in the empirical sciences. Randomness is a critical component of biological modeling at many levels in a wide range of systems. The fundamental axioms of the quantum paradigm in physics are, by definition, essentially stochastic. Economics uses the randomness in human thought…
