Parallel postulate

options to avoid confusion when grading. Furthermore, there is no pattern in the correct answers. Item #1 Revised Taxonomy - Cognitive Levels In answering this item, the student must recall the definition of parallel. Thus, the student must remember the factual knowledge that resistors in parallel have the same voltage. Item-writing Guidelines In creating this item, simple language and grammatical conventions are used, and the stem does not provide any clues to answer the item. Also, the options…

But in Norton’s Theorem the equivalent circuit has a current source and a resistance in parallel with the load resistance (R_X). Continued on next page: HOW IS IT USED When using Norton’s Theorem the load resistance is removed and replaced with a short (wire) and points labeled A and B. The reason to label the points A and B is to show…

Home is word that most people are familiar with, usually the place in which someone lives. Although, home is still a concept and some people stretch to a wide term such as a place with family or even other realms recognizing themselves as the omnipotent watcher. However, in Sook Nyui Choi’s book Year of Impossible Goodbyes home is quite different, home is something that most people do not think of having to value for it is a place where freedom exists. In this novel ten year old Sookan, a…

country of Korea on that day. Many people ask why this is a bad event for Korea. Well, on that day the unthinkable happened, Korea split into two countries. That country would soon be called North and South Korea. They had to build a wall in the 39th parallel so that the countries would fight and hurt any of their loyal citizens in the country.They called this wall the demilitarized zone or the DMZ. This was the first time in history that had to have a dedicated DMZ to separate a country from…

Schrodinger’s experiment illustrates a cat locked inside of a chamber with no viewing holes except for a hatch. Inside the container, there is a flask filled with poison and a radioactive source that emits radioactive particles unpredictably. When the emitted radiation is detected, the flask of poison spills and kills the cat. If the hatch is closed, there is no way for one to tell if the cat is dead or alive. So, technically it would be correct to say that the cat is both dead and alive. It is…

at the conclusion of the Incarnation. This curvature of spacetime opened the doors to the reality of a new method of understanding the world: non-Euclidean Geometry. Non-Euclidean Geometry differs from several key postulates of traditional Euclidean Geometry. These reworked postulates allow for strange distortions of familiar shapes, such as a triangle with two right angles, or curved lines that are in actuality straight. Non-Euclidean Geometry provides Eliot a unique opportunity. One of the…

observer is situated. In order to develop a universal concept of time, one would need an absolute frame of reference in the universe; however such a thing does not exist as there is no point in the universe which is completely stationary. The Second Postulate of the Special Theory of Relativity is that the speed of light…

same time. At the front of the Pantheon, there is a Classical Greek portico that measures approximately 33.1 meters by 13.6 meters, and its columns measure 11.8 meters high (Cartwright). There are three rows of these columns, and all of them are parallel in reference with each other. The pediment found atop the portico is an obtuse triangle, and other triangles similar to it are placed in various locations in and on the Pantheon. The monstrous rectangular bronze doors that hide the rotunda are…

The science versus religion controversy is one in which I believe will continue on until the end of time. Dr. Charlie Townes, a Christian man and renowned scientist, considers the parallels of the two demonstrate they are fated to eventually unite (Townes, 1966). Many view science and religion as two completely separate realms, which are fundamentally different and pursue truth in distinctively unlike ways. On the religious front, many hold firm to their faith and historical beliefs; whereas,…

It is a medical provider’s duty to address physical concerns of patients even when behavioral concerns could be the driving force of that physical condition. This has led me to believe that physicians and mental health providers should work as a parallel to address patient needs. Medical and mental health factors are extremely important components of “whole-person” care. Past behavioral and medical health practices have demonstrated difficulty with coordination and communication amongst…
