The relationship between mass and time of oscillation of a slinky Introduction In the 1950’s‚ Richard James accidentally discovered what we called today as the ‘slinky’. As he was trying to engineer a way to keep sensitive ship equipment steady at sea‚ he accidentally knocked some springs off the shelf which caused them to fall. He noticed that these springs appeared to be gracefully “walking” down the shelves instead of them simply falling down. James’ accidental discovery sparked way for further

The Jewish Scripture starts right at the beginning of time itself‚ where God created the universe‚ and only then did he create the earth (Genesis 1). Right from the beginning God has had an intimate connection between God and the world‚ and this connection is believed to continue throughout time. From the moment god created humanity (Gen. 1:26)‚ we were created for the one purpose to protect the earth. But it is in the story of Noah that we perhaps truly learn about the role that God had created

TUBERCULOSIS Tuberculosis‚ commonly known as TB‚ is a contagious and an often severe airborne disease caused by a bacterial infection. TB typically affects the lungs‚ but it also may affect any other organ of the body. It is usually treated with a regimen of drugs taken for 6 months to 2 years‚ depending on the type of infection Tuberculosis was popularly known as consumption for a long time. Scientists know it as an infection caused by M. tuberculosis. In 1882‚ the microbiologist Robert Koch discovered

Week #7 Chapter 10 Static and Current Electricity Exercises (p.221) 6. Strictly speaking‚ will a penny be slightly more massive if it has a negative charge or a positive charge? Explain. A negative charge because when it is negatively charged electrons are added to the penny. 17. What is the voltage at the location of a 0.0001 C charge that has an electric potential energy of 0.5 J (both voltage and potential relative to the same reference point)? Potential = energy Charge = 0.5 J / 0.0001

1. Properties of light Reflection The speed of light is measured through the equation: v = λ f. However‚ it turns out that when light is reflected off a surface its speed stays the same. This was first proven by Sir Isaac Newton. Under the assumption of perfectly elastic collision‚ the laws of reflection follow from the laws of motion. To demonstrate‚ consider a particle traveling towards a flat frictionless surface whose horizontal and vertical velocity components are: VX and VY. When the particle

Archimedes of Syracuse (pronounced ar-ka-meed-eez) He is considered one of the greatest mathematicians in history. In fact‚ he is believed to be one of the three greatest mathematicians along with Isaac Newton and Carl Gauss. His greatest contributions to mathematics were in the area of Geometry. Archimedes was also an accomplished engineer and an inventor. He was believed to have been obsessed with Geometry though. Archimedes was born in Syracuse‚ Greece in 287 BC and died 212 BC after being

I. Temperature Measurement 1. A thermometric property is a physical property that changes in a known way with temperature‚ and can therefore be used to measure temperature. The substance used as a thermometer must have a property that varies proportionally / linearly with temperature. [ In other words: When objects are heated or cooled‚ their temperatures change‚ along with some of their properties‚ these properties are known as Thermometric Properties.] Two commonly used thermometric properties
