The Lens Equation [1] This equation was used in the analysis to find out the focal point of the lens used. This equation can be derived either by using geometry and trigonometry. Figure 1 Ray diagram used to derive the thin lens equation Figure 3 Ray diagram used to derive the thin lens equation In Figure 2 the parallel light ray is shown. Also drawn on are two similar triangles for both triangles the angle shown is the same. This means that the tanθ is the same for each triangle;…

Throughout life, both children and adults must face their own roadblocks in order to grow both mentally and physically stronger.

Several other climbers were never found due to the storm.…

Mt. Everest In the video In thin Air Death of Everest produced by Atlas Media, and the article ¨Into Thin Air¨ by Jon Krakauer gave us amazing first- hand accounts of the triumph, and the 1996 tragedy. On Mt. Everest climbers have to scale 29,035ft to the summit and the climbers had to wear a lot of layers of clothes to try to stay alive on the mountain. But still not all climbers make it back down the mountain. Some die from frostbite and some fell off the mountain. The video and the…

The limitations that our minds have placed, have surpassed the physical limitations that our bodies have placed. Humans are not capable of passing these limits unless we allow technology to play a role. Throughout Jon Krakauer’s Into Thin Air, the audience views multiple obstacles and challenges for each and every team who had hopes of reaching the summit of Mount Everest. From the high altitude to the dangers of unknown weather, many climatological complications plague those who take the…

Alexander the Great quoted, “An army of sheep led by a lion is better than an army of lions led by a sheep”; it takes great leadership style to build great teams. The leadership plays a significant role in the team success of failure in any business; the top management is the brain that drives the business to safety or disaster. The best leaders have distinctive leadership styles and are not afraid to make the difficult decisions. If you want to build a high performance team, then you need to…

Both passages "The World's highest Mountain" and "A Mountain of Garbage" talk about Mt. Everest. "The World's Highest Mountain" talks about two people who climbed to the summit of Mt. Everest. While the second passage "A Mountain of Garbage" talks about how climbers on Mt. Everest pollute the mountain by leaving waste and discarded items. These passages are both alike and different in many ways. The two passages are similar because they both revolve around Mt. Everest and climbers. The first…

Southeastern Utah might as well be the surface of Mars. Between the buttes and mesas of an arid landscape, where tumbleweeds blow across the roads, sagebrush grows from the cracked nutrient-rich soil, and prickly pears sprout under rusted, broken rock, there is little besides long stretches of open wilderness. In the late 1950’s and early 1960’s, while much of the climbing community fixated on the Yosemite Valley, and the world’s attention was captivated by the Himalayas, a group of Colorado…

Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world. It stands 29,029 feet up. It is the most dangerous mountain to even attempt to climb. There is massive crevasses and icefalls sometimes even an avalanche “Climbing is as close as we can get to flying”. This quote means try your best to reach the top of your goals. Bachendri Pal did exactly this in 1984. Bachendri Pal is in charge of many other expeditions of her own because she owns her own company called national adventure foundation. She…
