Hsu makes this argument by explaining how scientists have manipulated lens and other materials, such as glass, varying in thickness, size, and optical coating, to capture a rainbow when a laser beam was shone through it. Hsu’s motive is to inform readers of this discovery, which involves a rainbow, an optical phenomenon that has amazed people for several generations, in order…

Thus, looking upon this title, I deduced that the metaphor, which is used for comparison, implies the following principles of natural selection apply to knowledge development: there is variation in knowledge, the ‘fittest’ knowledge is most suitably adapted to the environment, and superseded knowledge is not fit to survive. Questions and doubts thereby arise: What is meant by the…

    Gallium scans, Gastric Emptying, MUGA scans, and Spect Brain scans are just a few of the scans that were formed, thanks to the nuclear medicine of today. In 1896, a man by the name of Henri Becquerel discovered that uranium penetrating rays were similar to X-rays. This leads to other numerous discovers like the finding of elements polonium and radium, to the cyclotron invented by Ernest Lawrence that included the ability to produce radioisotopes of different elements. This leads to 1946, where…

    Spectroscopy is the study of objects, which is represented on the spectrum of color they radiate. An interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter. Spectroscopy involves the process of absorption, emission, or scattering of electromagnetic radiation by either ions, atoms, or molecules. The process of absorption involves when light is absorbed by electrons that jump to higher energy levels. On the other hand, emission spectra are established when the electrons from high energy levels give…

    after it has been done. To add, it can help diagnose various diseases and injuries, including broken bones, some cancers and infections. Although, X rays are known to cause mutations in the reproductive system, so an iron apron is worn to block the photons from reaching those organs. Additionally, x-rays are more portable and easier to use than other machines. Moreover, getting x-rays done increases your chances slightly of getting cancer in the next decade due to the ionizing radiation that…
