In his book, For the Love of Physics, Dr. Lewin shares his ideas of learning and teaching physics as a sort of appreciation of art. He even confesses that he owns exponentially more books the topic of art than physics, though he does believe that every branch of physics is experimentally governed (Lewin, Goldstein). This romantic view of physics is questionable among the scientific population. Quoting an article that describes a group…

Have you ever needed to do a certain simple task, but wished there was a machine to do it for you? The purpose of a Rube Goldberg machine is to create a complicated system in order to complete a tiny, simple task. What is a Rube Goldberg machine you may ask? A Rube Goldberg machine is an over- engineered contraption that uses a chain reaction to accomplish simple tasks such as turning on the music, pouring a glass of water, etc. This specific Rube Goldberg machine’s task is to move the last…

Sarang Patel Mrs. Kopko Day of the Dead: Issac Newton Sir Isaac Newton was an English mathematician, cosmologist, scholar and physicist (depicted in his own day as a "characteristic savant") who is generally perceived as a standout amongst the most powerful researchers ever and a key figure in the logical upheaval. His book Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica ("Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy"), first distributed in 1687, established the frameworks of traditional mechanics…

with no charge could be in the nucleus. Chadwick made many attempts and spent a very large amount of time trying to find the neutral particles. In 1932, Chadwick finally proved the existence of the neutron. In 1935, he received the Nobel Prize in physics for discovering the neutron. Discovering the neutron led to many other discoveries and changed science, such as neutrons being used to split heavy atoms apart, and atomic fission. Chadwick played an important role in history and the atomic bomb.…

misunderstanding and different views of their personal greatness. As a child it was clear that Galileo had a bright future ahead of him. Throughout his life he made many discoveries and theories. He enjoyed observing nature and relating it back to physics. He also designed and made a telescope that helped lead education in the future. Because of his beliefs the church…

On Monday October 12th I had the honor of interviewing my college algebra professor Dr. Layne Heitz. The interview was very interesting and I learned many knew things about Dr. Heitz. Dr. Heitz has a bachelor’s degree and a master’s in mathematics from the University of West Texas and has recently received his doctorate degree. He currently teaches college Algebra, finite math method for teachers, geometry, and sometimes calculus or trigonometry. Dr. Heitz said that he always knew that he…

He has said many incredible quotes throughout his lifetime and made many inventions. One of his quotes that he mentioned and i am going to be talking about is ( It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity). - Albert Einstein. In my opinion this is a really powerful quote and has lots of meaning. I will start by saying that technology is taking us away from our faith and family. though this quote has been said a long time ago,and also know that even though…

My boyfriend, Quincy, and I have been together for almost three years but, have known each other for seven years. Although the relationship did not remain productive for the full seven years there was still a lot of time spent with each other to communicate and develop a relationship. When a relationship exist for that long the relationship goes through many stages of development and our relationship is still developing today. Looking back at my relationship I can analyze the different…

Albert Einstein said, “No object can travel faster than the speed of light.” However, will the temperature change the brightness of light? The researcher will perform the test three different times. Each test will take one glow stick from the freezer, one from the refrigerator, one in boiling water, and one from the counter and break the glow stick to make it glow. The researcher will then time the length of time it takes for the glow stick to turn off. At the conclusion of the experiment, the…

kid.I did not do well in school, but I did take an interest in mathematics and science. While at college, I studied physics and math. After graduating, I worked in a government office. Meanwhile, I continued studying physics on my own. Q: Which area of science did you work in? A: I was in Theoretical Physics. My research was related to Universal Physics and Quantum Physics. A Theoretical physicist has a job that combines observation with mathematics in order to create complex…
