Introduction “The Radioactive Boy Scout is about David Hahn who has a love for science. David starts out working on his boy scout badge, but soon turns to nuclear energy. He soon starts on a new project; building a nuclear breeder reactor. Posing as a physics professor, David solicited information on reactor design from the U. S. Government and from industry experts. He spent a lot his time in the garden shed putting things together to help him with his inventions. Key Idea 1 David's parents…

John Dalton was born Sep 6, 1766 in a modest Quaker family in Cumberland, England. John always strived for a good education, but his family was very poor. When he was 12 he taught at the school he went to. When John was 14 he spent a year working as a farmhand, but went back to teaching at a boarding school in Kendal.Four years later and he was made principal of the school. When John was 26 he was a teacher of mathematics and natural philosophy at Manchester’s New College. In 1794, being his…

Robert Crowley Mr. Scott Period 3 October 30th 2015 Chemistry Introduction and Overview Elements are the substances that make up everything in the universe, known and unknown. This means that elements are what make up matter, and everything you see, hear and touch. There are 118 elements known to man, some that you may know include gold, iron and oxygen. Each of these have distinguishing qualities and they come in 3 different states of matter, solid, liquid and gas. Some of these are…

James Lynette Burdick CHM 130 11 November 2015 Fritz Haber: For Better and For Worse Fritz Haber, a scientist not well-known to many, has played an immense role for our world today. This paper will describe him, his contributions to the chemistry field, the hardships he had to go through during his career as a chemist and the contradictions of his inventions. Fritz Haber was born into one of the oldest families of Breslau, Germany (now part of Poland) on December 9, 1868. Sadly, his mother…

rebellion to show us how it truly led him to become this iconic figure students see in their everyday science classes. Readers without a general knowledge of physics might find it hard to understand each individual part of Einstein's complicated theories. But, Isaacsons use of laymen terms and examples help readers understand the broad idea of them. “If the source of sound is rushing towards you the waves will not get to you any faster. However, in what is known to be the Doppler effect, the…

Albert einstein Albert Einstein was an immigrant. He was born March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany. According to the text, “ He was theoretical physicist for almost his entire life”. His dad was Hermann Einstein his mom was Pauline Einstein and his sister was Maja Einstein. Albert Einstein immigrated to the US on October 17, 1933. He immigrated because the appointment of adolf hitler as a chancellor took affect. Also he faced bad weather. He took…

A Rydberg atom is an atom with one or more electrons that have a high principal quantum number. Essentially, this means that the electrons occupy an electron shell further from the atom, and spend time further from the nucleus. These electrons have much higher energy and are less bound to their nucleus. Because of their behavior, they…

CMRJ341 Professor Jennifer Bourgeois October 18, 2015 Impact radial fracture lines ends shortly after the earlier impacts. In this case, bullet (C) was the first shot followed by (B) And lastly (A). In order to figure out the order of bullets is figuring out the radial fractures is looking at the initial fracture. Bullet fractures are round and has the same shape as a wheel. Fractures Also connects in the shape of a spider web. Then you have to figure out which side the fragment is facing in…

between atoms and contribute to its mass. A scientist by the name of Robert Andrews Millikan won a Nobel Prize for his study and finding of the charge of an electron. His findings greatly helped the scientific community by contributing to the Atomic Theory of Matter, which states that all matter is made out of atoms. Millikan found the charge of an electron by performing an experiment, which we now call Millikan’s Oil Drop Experiment. The Oil Drop Experiment was…

ancient Greeks to modern day, scientist have argued the concepts behind matter. During the time of Aristotle, philosophers created scientific theories based on logic alone, eliminating all scientific evidence. This is when Democritus proposed his theory. Later, Dalton proposed his theory after completing experiments about matter. Democritus's theory was the theory of atomos. He claimed that atomos were particles so small that they could no longer be divided. Democritus also claimed that not…
