Parabola

There is not one film or text responsible for this, but many as there are many perspectives on what sci-fi is described as. The genre does not have one definition, but rather many, varying from the number of people asked. According to the writer, Hugo Gernsback, "Science-fiction ... can be defined as: imaginative extrapolation of true natural phenomena, existing now, or likely to exist in the future" (Gernsback). . Hugo Gernsback’s definition of science fiction is strongest because it…

B (1.11d) Equation (1.11d) is the polar equation of a conic section with ρ as the latur-rectum and e the eccentricity, with M as the focus, and the orbit of m being: (i) a circle with radius p for e=0 (ii) an ellipse for e<1 (iii) a parabola for e=1 (iv) a hyperbola for e>1 The cases of circular (e = 0) and elliptical (e<1) orbits are of most interest for a satellite orbiting around the earth. The semi major and semi minor axes of the ellipse, a and b,…

Niccolò Fontana Tartaglia Niccolò Fontana Tartaglia was an Italian mathematician who lived from 1499/1500 to 1557. When he was 12, a French army attacked his town and home, and a soldier cut his face and throat. Left with a speech impediment, he became known by the name “Tartaglia,” which means “the stammerer” in Italian. Tartaglia made many great contributions to the world and specifically to mathematics. He is responsible for finding a solution for cubic equations, writing important…

His proposal encapsulates the following five characteristics; Explanation: we can explain a matter with the aid of concerned laws, such as Newton’s laws to explain why a cannon ball goes in a parabola rather than a circle. Hence, a scientific explanation must appeal to law and must show that what is being explained had to occur (Curd and Cover: 40). Predictions: when an explanation has been given by using laws, there is always a room for prediction…

* For the first one this is what I would do...okay so we have the original equation for the first one & based off that this is what I would do...I would discover f ( 2 ) by inserting x equals 2. f ( x ) equals 3x plus 2 f ( 2 ) equals 2 f ( x ) represents 3x plus 2 so the letter f which is the two would represent three which is now 3 ( 2 ) plus 2 equals 8 1 over f ( 2 ) equals 8 2 over f ^ - 1 ( 3 ) when f ( x ) equals 2x minus 7 over three. For this one what we want to do is discover f ^…

“If mathematics is a male domain, where does this leave women who do mathematics?” (Solomon 1) For a long time, women have struggled to gain complete acceptance in the mathematics field. “Mathematics is seen as a male-dominated field and it has been an uphill battle for women trying to break into the field” (Solomon 172). Despite this, there have been several women throughout history who have made significant contributions to and impacts in the field of mathematics. The purpose of this paper is…

At a time when religion dominated the historical landscape and was influential in every aspect of human life and determining the course of empires, the mathematician Hypatia chose to pursue and establish some fundamental philosophical and mathematical principles that govern a major part of human existence. She was responsible for many of the world’s greatest discoveries, which were obscured and hidden by the victorious agents throughout history until relatively recently when they were proved to…

An opera house is the place for performing arts such like opera, stage show, symphony, choral concert, singer concert and a place for the artist to perform or display their arts as a world tour around the world. There are hundreds of opera houses around the world include the Malaysia’s opera house as known as Palace of Culture, also known as Istana Budaya that located next to the National Art Gallery on Jalan Tun Razak in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. The first and the greatest public opera house…

The three stories I chose for this final paper are all written by people who have traveled to or lived in foreign countries. These stories focus on different topics that happened in different countries, but a common thread runs through all of them: the desire to experience a culture different from one’s own and the results of doing so. Each author enthusiastically recounts the excitement of traveling to a different place, but also reflects on hardships encountered and lessons learned. Those…

Single Component Study Using PVT Simulator Lab Report 1 Section W03 Nicholas Wells ID: 800098661 September 8, 2016 Cover Letter Dr. Ebrahim Fathi, The purpose of the first lab was familiarize the class with phase behavior using a PVT Simulator. PVT is an acronym for Pressure, Temperature, and Volume. The PVT Simulator is a program on the computer called PVTLab. Phase behavior experiments can be done using an actual PVT apparatus but they are very expensive and the experiments would take hours…
