Hobbytown Rocket V.S. Chemistry Rocket Research Paper A Rocket is a projectile that can operate on it's own without oxygen by the combustion of it's contents. Rockets are particularly interesting because it has transported mankind where they have never been before. That is why this project is on Rocketry, but with small scale rockets. The purpose of this project is to see if a homemade Chemistry Rocket, fuel made of baking soda and vinegar, can equal the endurance and/or the height of a…

Over the course of time, warfare has grown to reach devastating power due to the advances of technology. In the first wars, we were still using rows of men in flanks to fire shots at one another. As new inventions came about that advanced warfare, we altered how we fought from flanks, to trenches, to a government building, or now from the comfort of your own home. Through the new technologies we have accumulated, war has become impersonal through the advancements of cyber attacks and remote…

by a scientist named Robert Oppenheimer. The scientists developed two different types of atomic bombs: the gun-type and the implosion device (Manhattan Project). In the gun-type device critical mass was obtained by firing a sub-critical uranium projectile through a barrel toward another sub-critical uranium target (Atomic Heritage). Sub- critical means that the uranium isn’t at the required mass for a chain reaction to occur. This type of device was later used in the bombing of Hiroshima, Japan.…

Soccer is a sport that involves two teams of 11 players who strike a football with their feet. When the players kick the ball they can affects the way the ball spins in the air. Factors that affect the way a ball spins include: wind drag, the way the ball is struck, and friction. These affect it due to the change of the air-flow over the ball, which occur when the ball spins in both a translational and rotational motion. This is due to the magnus effect and bernoulli principle occurring when the…

According Peter M. McGinnis (2013) the Newton’s first law is about the linear kinematic and is called law of Inertia. This law states that, ‘everybody continues in it states of rest, or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it’ (McGinnis, 2013, p.88). Simpler, the law of Inertia says that if there is no external force acts on a subject, that subject will not move and it will remain in states of rest or if it was moving it will…

phones, laptops and the internet. With all this faster technology it can help police officers get their work and possibly a bit easier and more correctly, with up to date tools, and technology like GPS, advanced communication tools, and less-lethal projectiles also improve the safety of both police and the public, because information can get to them faster (“Law enforcement equipment and technology,” 2014). As time goes on, so its improving and making technology better. Such as having cell…

The First of its Kind Clouds of something that appeared to be smoke reached the line of soldiers waiting to fight. Immediately, the soldiers began to cough, gag and choke. Their eyes started stinging and watering, and they fell backwards into the trenches. The soldiers tried to duck and avoid the smoke in their dugouts, but it soon followed. Those who did not fall ran trying to abandon the clouds of smoke, but this was no regular smoke (Kennedy 53). It was chlorine gas that German forces used to…
