generators create electrical energy by creating a changing magnetic field. This works by moving a copper coil in a permanent magnetic field. The induced field created in the copper coil opposes the permanent one (according to Lenz's Law). These two opposing magnetic fields create the force that resists the rotation of the coils. When the light bulb is taken out no current can flow through the coil (Faraday's Law) so no opposing magnetic field is created. Hot Plate Why didn’t the power you…
are two field magnets on each side coil with wire. These two field magnets always have opposite polarity. On the middle of the motor there is an armature, two commutators and two brushes. When current flow though the two brushes, one of the brushes touches commutator plate 1 and the other brushes touches commutator plate 2. Then the armature A and armature B turn in to field magnets, because when the current flow though iron that coil with wire, it will produce a strong electromagnetic field.…
Malcolm X once said, “There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance the next time.” Loung Ung is a victim of the 1975 Cambodian Genocide and lost almost everything that she held dear to her including her home, her parents, and two of her sisters. However, she did not let their deaths weight her down as she went on to survive the wrath of the Khmer Rouge. The Khmer Rouge started a takeover…
Try being forced to move away from your home country, family, and everything you know to escape an unsafe environment. About 1.7 Million out of 7-8 million Cambodians were killed due to the Khmer Rouge Genocide, not one person has been persecuted for their actions during this time. Loung Ung was forced to leave everything she knew in Cambodia including her sister Chou, to move to America. She moved with Meng and Eang, Meng is Loung’s oldest brother and Eang is his wife. She moved because of the…
A cool, cloudy, but dry night rolls over the friendly confines northern Chicago. Two rabid packs of fans starved, and now frothing at the mouth as the taste for his or her team to finally take the title back home becomes more of a reality every night. With either outcome a drought will be ended, and a flood of emotion will consume the nation. It was Game 5 of the 2016 World Series and there can only be one! Which team will ultimately break the curse? Will the Indians be able to hold onto…
Magnetic therapy or magnet healing is a type of alternative medicine that have magnetic fields that generates healing powers towards a large number of diseases or conditions. These electromagnetic fields have been demonstrated to treat slow-healing fractures in the body and have shown good results towards to a few conditions. The website that has claimed to use this magnetic therapy are Skepdic.com. The claim that this complementary and alternative medicine practitioner is making goes…
Frederic Clemson Howe once said, “War demands sacrifice of the people. It gives only suffering in return.” This explains the situations of Robert Ross, Werner Heisenberg, and Niels Bohr. They all sacrificed, which only lead to suffering for all of them. Although one is a coming of age novel about a WW1 soldier and the other is a play about an imaginary meeting of WWII scientists, both The Wars by Timothy Findley and Copenhagen by Michael Frayn explore the ways in which war affects individuals…
a) Explain 2 key ideas in quantum mechanics. Two of the key ideas involved in quantum mechanics are wave particle duality and the Observer effect. These two ideas have changed the way that scientists think about the world. Firstly, wave particle duality is the fact that every elementary particle exhibits the properties of both particles and waves. This idea started with Thomas Young’s 1803 double-slit experiment. With a ripple tank he showed how water waves interfere with each other, and then…
Eliot explores a myriad of interpretations of the meaning of logos in the Four Quartets through Einstein’s theory of Relativity, by examining it through the bending of space and time, ultimately using this lens to arrive 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…
1. Please summarize your assessment of the paper: YES MAYBE NO Does the paper contain enough significant new physics to warrant publication in the Physical Review? (X) ( ) ( ) Is the paper scientifically sound and not misleading? (X) ( ) ( ) Is the paper well organized and clearly written? ( ) (X) ( ) Are the subject matter and style of…
