    the force of gravity. As we know, gravity is a natural phenomenon by which all things with energy are brought toward one another, including stars, planets, galaxies and even light and sub-atomic particles (Halliday, D; Robert, R; Krane, k; 2001). Newton’s Law states that one object can attract every other object in the universe. The mutual attractions between the Moon, the Earth and the Sun together can make an impact on objects on Earth’s surface, and this mutual attraction is the tidal…

    During high school I thought that I wouldn’t need any further education. When you are young it is easy to see the world through an unrealistic perspective. Young people tend to believe that they know everything about life and what it has to offer, and I am no exception. However, in the last year I have come to understand that you cannot possibly know everything. You can decide how much you learn or what value it has to you…but you cannot learn everything. As your older sister, I am here to give…

    occurring because of a divine source, which Aquinas relates to God. Aquinas first testimony to God lies in motion, which was inspired by Aristotle. Aristotle suggests that everything in the universe was provoked to move by something or someone and could not have been in movement if not for some primary movement. Aquinas assumed this “primary mover” as the God of Christianity, thus motion. Aquinas’ second argument is that of causation, stems from the idea that an entity or event is responsible…

    following. Premise One states “There’s nothing you can do to change the past” (Kane 23). Premise Two states ““There’s nothing you can do to change the laws of nature” (Kane 23). Premise Three which is a combination of Premise One and Two states “If determinism is true, then your current action is a necessary consequence of the past and natural laws” (Kane 24), therefore concluding that “If determinism is true, then there is nothing you can do to change your current action (Kane 24). There is an…

    I needed to build a water rocket that would be aerodynamic, light, and have the ability to glide down to elongate flight time. I started out researching different bottle rocket designs to find what would work best. While researching, I found that having a slimmer bottle on top of the base bottle, versus having two regular sized soda bottles would be more aerodynamic and would allow me to give the rocket a more “bullet” shaped body. When looking at fins, those with larger fins worked more…

    thinking in pictures then understanding words . well okay that a little about his child hood. Albert’s Adult hood he publishes four ground breaking works in the “Annealed der Physic” and I guess that’s for like a physics around the 1900s Albert deuces the formula E=mc squared. In April Albert also hands in a physics work. In the middle of January Albert is awarded a doctorate by the University of Zurich and also in April he is promoted to be a second class technical expert at the patent office.…

However, the truth is that the relation between them is best described as an alliance whose preservation is very important. Due to this important alliance, the decline of spirituality has in turn led to the decline of scientific development. Most people in the 21st century think that they are living in the century of science and…

    Evaluation Conclusion Statement: Centripetal force is inversely proportional to radius and therefore centripetal force is decreasing exponentially as radius increases. This can be supported by my equation of Y=A/x +/- .05 where A= 0.3322 The graph of my data collected showed my predictions were incorrect, I thought that the larger the radius meant the larger centripetal force would be shown, however it was actually inversely proportional. The experiment concludes that centripetal force will…
