SCIENTIFIC REPORT PROFORMA YEAR 8 Task 1 2018 Student name: Jacob Teacher: Miss Bianchi Class: 8.5 Due: Tuesday 27th March 2018 TITLE: Bouncing Balls BACKGROUND RESEARCH: Physics: is the main part of science involved with the character and properties of matter and energy. Matter of physics includes: mechanics, heat, light-weight and alternative radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and also the structure of atoms. Physics has many things that help us or things we use and we…

What would life be like if the internet was never invented? It is hard to imagine in today’s time when our whole life is centered around this invisible force. It is our way to communicate with one another, share information, and focus our time on. There is an AT&T commercial that gives a comedic, but very relatable and true depiction of how people react when there no internet. The commercial depicts a family that has lost their internet and for them doing simple everyday tasks like going places…

other intelligent life? Is it possible that they created our universe? While this notion may sound outlandish and completely irrational, there is actually quite a bit of logical evidence to back it up. All it would take to create a universe is a particle accelerator only slightly more powerful than the Large Hadron Collider. When the LHC was fired up in 2008, there was controversy over whether or not it would create a black hole that would swallow the earth; which is not likely to happen.…

documentary, Particle Fever, the movie brings attention to the different view of the arts and sciences as two interdependent subjects. The director, Dr. David Kaplan, uses the documentary to give his audience an inside view to the world’s largest experiment at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) with the use of the Large Hardon Collider (LHC). The LHC is the world’s largest accelerated. The massive machine accelerates particles into each other in order to see the “God”…

As this topic is so broad, it would be impossible to investigate all the benefits and drawbacks that spirit science has offered on our world, so instead this paper will focus on a few: Knowledge and Social/Political Change. Spirit Science’s the idea that our are all connected. The idea that through love, anything is possible, we are the creator, people in general and through our awareness of the world around us, we can create a massive change in the way that we do things. Spirit Science shows…

When the state equation of a model is an autoregressive process with unknown constant coefficients, EnKF can be easily modified to include Monte Carlo estimation of the constant coefficients. We recall that the standard particle filtering method suffers from weight degeneracy especially when the estimation includes static parameters. EnKF, however, does not suffer from degeneracy and provides a good estimate of the coefficients by integrating a sample minimum mean square estimate (MMSE) of the…

were able to observe that when the cosmic rays collided with atoms in our atmosphere, the nucleus of the atom was prised open by the energy created. This then revealed many short-lived particles within the nucleus. However, these could only be seen in tracks left behind in sensitive detectors. There were many particles found such as muon, which behaves like and electron and is 210 times heavier. There is also the pion which is a little smaller than the muon as well as the kaon, which is just…

Fig: Schematic representation of LHC and it's detectors The primary objective of LHC is to answer the following questions: 1. Why some particles are heavier than others? If the Higgs mechanism is valid? 2. If the super-symmetry theory is valid? If yes then if super-symmetric particles exist? 3. If the concept of dark matter and dark energy correct? 4. Why our universe is made up of matter only? 5. What was the state of matter in the early universe? 6. What will be the properties…

Particle size distribution Introduction The purpose of this lab was to determine the particle size distribution of a particular soil sample by carrying out sieve analysis and hydrometer analysis tests. For the sieve analysis test, a graph for percent finer versus the grain size was plotted from the data collected. The graph was used to determine whether the soil sample was fine-grained or course-grained. Calculations for uniformity and gradation were then done to determine whether the soil was…
