My research objective is to find the birth places of Ernest and Emma Kundig. My first step, I took was to visit Ancestry. I searched the 1920 United States Federal Census. I decided this must be my first step since it was the only source the client had about their ancestor. I discovered from this census that Ernest and Emma immigrated to the United States in 1893. Another piece of information, I learned from the census was the birthplace of Ernest and Emma. He was born in Switzerland…
It all started in the late 16th century. The Enlightenment “is” also “known” as “The Age Of Reason”. Numerous books, essays, inventions, scientific discoveries, laws, wars, and revolutions were produced. Rene` Descartes, John Locke, and Denis Diderot to name a few thinkers/ philosophers that were apart of the Enlightenment which was based of the ways that they vision how society was built on. The revolution of algebra and geometry was produced by Rene` Descartes. Being the youngest out of three…
According to Science Buddies Staffs, “Take a Musical Step Back in Time: Make Your Own Phonograph From Everyday Items,” in the year 1877, Thomas Edison successfully built the phonograph. The phonograph, back then consisted of turning a cylinder wrapped with paraffin paper or tinfoil, a needle, and horn. The use of a phonograph was to first connect the stylus(needle) to the paper or tinfoil, then yell into the horn while spinning the diaphragm, this results in indentions in the paper, after that…
Frank Donald Drake, born May 28, 1930 in Chicago, Illinois, was unlike most children. Drake and his friends would often find themselves experimenting with motors, radios and chemistry sets for multiple hours at a time. As Frank’s understanding of the universe grew, so did his curiosity of extra-terrestrial beings. After his graduation from Cornell University, Frank spent the next three years in the United States Navy, as the electronics officer so he could repay his scholarship.…
Middle range nursing theories cover larger populations in different settings than grand theories and contain a few concepts that are testable. Pender’s Health Promotion Model and Kolcaba’s Comfort Theory are both middle range nursing theories that have stood the tests of both time and trials. There are several similarities as well as differences. The following pages will compare and contrast these theories while illustrating that both are middle range nursing theories. Nola Pender developed the…
When looking at something that is very large, such as the universe, a militaristic entity, or a massive political conflict, it can be hard to make any sense out of the sheer multitude of sensory experiences. Looking at something small, in contrast, is simple and easy to understand. Therefore, a useful way in understanding the whole would be to look at individual parts, and eventually the sum of the parts will lead to a conception of the entire entity. Richard Feynman’s The Character of Physical…
“My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.” -Stephen Hawkings. This is exactly what Stephen Hawking is working to do by piecing together parts of the universe. Stephen Hawking was born on January 8, 1942, in Oxford, England. When Hawking was young, he showed a strong passion for science and the sky. When he was 21, he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS. ALS is a very progressive disease…
These two theories are absolute opposites that must coexist in relative order. That being said, if humans somehow figured out a way to continuously exist for an infinitely infinite span of time and figure out a way to either create new universes or prolong the existence of this universe my hypothesis of absolute meaninglessness would fall apart. My hypothesis for dissimilarities in levels of worth in regard to separate individuals would remain relevant however as its existence is a literal…
Do you ever wonder why the planets stay in orbit? Or do you ever wonder how calculus came to be? Well, you can thank Isaac Newton for these things. He was a scientist and mathematician and was a big help in the 17th century. Isaac Newton was born on January 4, 1643, in Woolsthorpe, England, United Kingdom, and died on March 1, 1727 in London, England, United kingdom at the age of 85. Isaac Newton studied for a degree in law. For college he enrolled in King’s school in Grantham, which is a…
Edward has written who is he you ask.Well he is an American theoretical physicist. He is also the professor of mathematical physics at the Institute for Advanced Study which is located in Princeton, New Jersey.He was also the person who discovered the string theory.Which states “that subatomic particles, instead of being single points, are actually strings, oscillating (vibrating) a certain way.” He also discovered a couple more theories. Edward Written was born August 26, 1951, in Baltimore,…
