    simple geometry that had been relatively well known throughout most early nations and apply it to war engines such as the traction trebuchet. When designing the trebuchet, the engineers needed a way to make the projectile fire at incredibly high velocity and range, in order to do this they adopted the principle of mechanical advantage. the principle of mechanical advantage in regards to a trebuchet is where the counterweight pivots around a much shorter distance than the firing end, in an…

    • 4 Pages

    What is refraction Refraction is the bending of light when it passes from one medium to another, as light travels through one medium such as air it will travel at a certain velocity but once it enters another medium such as glass it will change direction due to the increase in density of the medium which slows down the velocity of the light. The amount that the light bends as it travels through a medium depends on how drastic the difference in optical density is. For example if light were to…

    Fish’s consist of a diverse amount of species each known for their characteristics that set them apart from the rest. The characteristics that make the general understanding of a fish are, vertebrate, aquatic, Gills rather than lungs, paired limbs(fins) for locomotion, and are covered with scales. When we see fishes in aquariums we have an irresistible urge to tap the glass, and in doing so, a lot of the fishes get startled and move away performing a sequence of steps called an c-start used as…

    However, the passengers in the car continue to move forward at the same velocity as the car was moving before the collision due to inertia, since the person will remain in uniform motion in a straight line unless there are external forces acting on it. In this case, there are no external forces acting on the passengers, so they will all move forward at the same velocity as the car was moving before the collision. They will come to an abrupt stop when they hit objects in…

    two (with Figure 2) had an optimal pH at approximately pH8; in section 3 (with Figure 3) the color continued to increase with the addition of more enzymes; and in section 4 (with Figure 4) the color continued to increase until it reached a maximum velocity with the addition of more substrates. One desired retrial for the experiment would be to test for more points after 20 drops of potato juice in Figure 3. Understanding the effects of how these properties alter the ability of the catecholase…

    According to the Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary Jazz is “a type of music with strong rhythms, in which the players often improvise (= make up the music as they are playing), originally created by African American musicians.” Jazz music is regarded as unique by Jazz musicians and listeners. While some may be skeptical, in fact, Jazz is very different from other styles of music and it has had a big influence on popular music. An extremely relevant feature that makes Jazz so…

    I am going to be honest in regards to the article titled “Compensators: Pressure or Gas?” by Brad Miller, Ph.D. I did not understand one bit of it. I ended up re-reading it three times just to get the basic point of the article. My first struggle is I did not know some of the terminology he was using, such as charge weight, linear regression or chamber pressure. Or the fact I have not used or heard of Newton’s Second Law or Newtonian physics since high school some 25 years ago. I know the…
