system can distribute heat more effectively throughout a dwelling because of its pumps and fans,” (Mongillo 42). The Active Solar Heating System requires three difficult solar subsystem steps that explain the process of how to convert energy from the sun in the simplest form (Mongillo 41). The Active and Passive Solar Heating systems have many tools that are involved in the long process, but a solar photovoltaic cell helps to speed up the process (Mongillo 41). Another type of energy device is…
Raisin in the Sun”, Beneatha goes up against all the norms of that era, and attends college. Beneatha strives to become one of the first female african american doctor. Even though each film was made in different time periods we see a similarity in both families which is the wanting for something better. We also see some differences in the norms of the time periods like a change in gender roles. Gender typing is also seen in both films.“Little Miss Sunshine”, and “A Raisin in the Sun”…
Throughout his plays, Shakespeare often hides clever references to astronomical bodies, like in the quote above, in order to signify the scientific revolution taking place around him during Renaissance-era Europe. At that time, scientists and astronomers like Kepler, Copernicus and Galileo had made astounding discoveries regarding the position and movement of celestial bodies such as planets and stars. Prior to this time, the Catholic Church held a large sway over the science of the time, and…
Geometry and Eratosthenes In Professor Russ physical science class, there’s a plethora of subjects you, as a student, are bound to cover. This semester we had discuss over twenty different fields of science; the first being Geometry and Eratosthenes computing circumference of earth. We started the final semester off with two worksheets. The first was the “Angles of a Triangle”, we had to cut out the three angles of the triangle and piece them together in a shape. The three angles form a…
nature of the overuse of fossil fuels, scientists hope to replace them with four alternative energy resources. The four alternative energy resources are solar power, nuclear power, wind power, and hydroelectric power. Solar energy is derived from the sun. It is considered to be a valuable resource because, unlike fossil fuels, it is inextinguishable. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association, there are four ways to harness it: photovoltaics,…
In general, Fritz Scholder used people to show ethnic subject matter. This does not coincide with what I have learned about earlier painters such as those in the Oklahoma School. The most artwork from earlier painters are traditional portraits and pictures of recording the ceremony. Fritz Scholder combined Indian culture with American culture to show the Indian with a beer can, the Indian with a American flag, and a portrait of himself with a cat. He also drew abstract in which expressed…
on the other hand, is a much more dangerous type of skin cancer, resulting in roughly 10,000 deaths each year. Here’s another frightening fact about melanoma, while BCC and SCC will usually form in an area of the body that has experienced repeated sun exposure, melanoma can be a result from just one really bad sunburn. On top of this, melanoma is also different because it can metastasize and spread throughout the body. So how exactly does ultraviolet radiation cause skin cancer? As I mentioned…
today was the day we leave for our summer vacation. I was up and off to the bathroom in no time. Once everyone was dressed we headed outside to start packing the car. My uncle rented a minivan so everyone could fit. It was kind of cool out since the sun was still sleeping. I wished I was still asleep myself. We loaded all of our bags into the van. Then we headed back in to make sandwiches for the road. My cousin and I made the sandwiches and pack the rest…

thinkers. One of the most influential to Astronomy was Aristotle, he developed the theories about how the universe is structured and how it functions. According to him, the Earth lies unmoving at the center of the universe and its shape is round. The sun, the moon, and stars all circle the earth. The…
