His parents were Johann Bernoulli and Dorothea Falkner. His father was a doctor and well-known mathematician. He was called the “Archimedes of his age”. Education: Taught by his more caring older brother,…
technology exceeded our humanity, he is absolutely correct. Such things now as video games,Internet,and new up to date technology. The word appallingly in this quote means in other words terrible or awful which here is referring to technology changing our minds. In other words he is trying to say that we are getting so caught up with new technology that we don't give time for ourselves. This quote goes to show that when people just started inventing new and harmful things back then,people could…
Albert Einstein said, “No object can travel faster than the speed of light.” However, will the temperature change the brightness of light? The researcher will perform the test three different times. Each test will take one glow stick from the freezer, one from the refrigerator, one in boiling water, and one from the counter and break the glow stick to make it glow. The researcher will then time the length of time it takes for the glow stick to turn off. At the conclusion of the experiment, the…
physics and math. After graduating, I worked in a government office. Meanwhile, I continued studying physics on my own. Q: Which area of science did you work in? A: I was in Theoretical Physics. My research was related to Universal Physics and Quantum Physics. A Theoretical physicist has a job that combines observation with mathematics in order to create complex formulas that describe the workings of the universe around us. Q: What did you discover…
Today we might know an atom being the smallest piece of an element that represent an element, but you might not know the whole story. It all being in 1803, when a curious guy, known as John Dalton, who proposed an “atomic theory” with spherical solid atoms based upon measurable properties of mass. Later on Dalton introduced his belief that atoms of different elements could be universally distinguished based on their varying atomic weights. John Dalton's research not only changed the face of…
We all love screaming. So why don’t we do it more? I’ll tell you why! It’s because it is not socially acceptable, and that is really quite horrible, because there are so many positives to screaming. I’m sure that I am not the only one who thinks that it’s not fair that when a child screams, it’s completely normal, or at least not completely unheard of. Yet, if basically anyone older than 6 or 7 were to scream in public, they would be judged, or stared at by complete strangers, and that needs to…
Niels Bohr Ethics and Involvement in Manhattan Project Niels Henrik David Bohr was a Danish physicist that made numerous contributions to the study and understanding of the atomic structure and quantum theory. He was involved in the Manhattan Project that on its own have its wrong and rights. Bohr supported the peaceful implementation of atomic energy and feel open about different nation consideration to nuclear weapons. Niels Bohr was born on October 7 ,1885 he later enrolled in Copenhagen…
A spectroscope takes in light and breaks it into their own individual wavelengths, which are the colored lines we see. The light was produced by electrons, which each have their own quantum, or energy level. When we run a current through the atom, the electron gains energy and jumps to a higher level to its excited state. When they fall back to their ground state, they release their stored energy through the form of light. The line spectra for different atoms differ because they each have a…
During an exam, ultrasonic beams propagate through a patient’s tissue by means of the transducer. As the beam propagates, there is a loss of energy through absorption, reflection, and scattering. This loss is displayed in the image as shadowing. To start, shadowing may result due to the absorption or reflection of most of the energy. The degree of shadowing is dependent on the structure and size of the object that’s blocking the ultrasonic beam and its relativity to it. Shadowing is seen when…
orbitals. An empty space represents an unoccupied orbital. A space occupied with one up arrow represents an orbital with one electron. a space containing both an up and down arrow represents a filled orbital. Each box is labeled with the principal quantum number and sub level associated with the orbital. Sub level P has three spaces and is one behind, sub level D has five spaces and is two behind. Each line must have all up arrows before going through and adding down arrow. For example carbon's…
