I’m Jordan and I’m an addict slash abuser‚ I guess.” I watch my son shrug his shoulders and hunch over‚ clasping his hands in his lap after uttering these words. He speaks the words quietly‚ but his apathetic tone and body language read loud and clear. He doesn’t believe the words he’s saying and is merely being cooperative. After a loud and cheerful “Hello Jordan!” the group turns their attention to me. “Hi. I’m Brandee‚ and I’m

Interpretation of “My Number” by Billy Collins Billy Collins’ poem‚ “My Number” combines the use of personification and imagery to illustrate the uneasy feeling of uncertainty in regard to Death and its imminence. The persona is waiting in constant fear for Death’s arrival‚ as he is clearly not ready for Death to find him. Collins uses personification in the first stanza when he writes the following: Is Death… reaching for a widow in Cincinnati or breathing down the neck of a lost hiker in

Perfect numbers Mathematicians have been fascinated for millenniums by the properties and patterns of numbers. They have noticed that some numbers are equal to the sum of all of their factors (not including the number itself). Such numbers are called perfect numbers. A perfect number is a whole number‚ an integer greater than zero and is the sum of its proper positive devisors‚ that is‚ the sum of the positive divisors excluding the number itself. Equivalently‚ a perfect number is a number that is

The Number Devil Prima Donna Numbers Prima- donna numbers is another name for prime numbers. Prima- donna numbers/ prime numbers can only be divided evenly by one and itself. In The Number Devil‚ the Number Devil does the prima-donna numbers from 0 to 50. I created a chart‚ just like in the number devil and figured out which ones are prima-donna numbers. The number 0 does not count because if you divide a number by 0 the answer will always be 0. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19

Graham’s number‚ named after Ronald Graham‚ is a large number that is an upper bound on the solution to a certain problem in Ramsey theory. The number gained a degree of popular attention when Martin Gardner described it in the "Mathematical Games" section of Scientific American in November 1977‚ writing that‚ "In an unpublished proof‚ Graham has recently established ... a bound so vast that it holds the record for the largest number ever used in a serious mathematical proof."

ABSTRACT Reynolds number can be defined as a number of varieties of situations where a fluid is in relative with motion to a surface. This experiment is to observe the behavior of the flow of fluid either it is laminar or turbulent by calculating it’s Reynolds number and the characteristic of the flow. Other than that‚ the range for laminar and turbulent flow can be calculated and the theory that Reynolds number is dimensionless can be proven. The pump is opened to let the water flow. The dye

Oxidation Number When elements combine to produce a compound‚ each element is assigned an “apparent” charge. This apparent charge‚ the charge an atom would have if both electrons in each bond were assigned to the more electronegative element‚ may be positive or negative. It is called the oxidation number or state of the element in the compound. Oxidation numbers are very useful in keeping track of what happens to electrons when various elements combine to form compounds. By remembering a few

geometric shapes‚ which lead to special numbers. The simplest example of these are square numbers‚ such as 1‚ 4‚ 9‚ 16‚ which can be represented by squares of side 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 4. Triangular numbers are defined as “the number of dots in an equilateral triangle uniformly filled with dots”. The sequence of triangular numbers are derived from all natural numbers and zero‚ if the following number is always added to the previous as shown below‚ a triangular number will always be the outcome: 1 = 1
