Explain How Dirac's Father And Why Did Heisenberg Stop High School Education
1) Who was Dirac’s father and how did his father’s domineering and stubborn nature effect their relationship?
Dirac’s father was Charles. Charles made a rule that Paul must speak to him only in French. Since Paul wasn’t good at it, he mostly remained silent. Charles insisted that French only was spoken at the dinner table, so Paul and his father would sit mostly silently in the dining room. Thus, they didn’t have the normal father-son relationship between them. They really had a non-relationship.

2) Why did Heisenberg stop high school education during the First World War?
During the First World War Werner was sent to work on a farm as the owner was serving on active duty. It required hard physical labor, and he didn’t have the energy and

    His studying was interrupted when his teacher, Moishe the Beadle, was deported from Sighet because he was foreign Jew. In a few months, Moishe returned, telling a horrifying tale: the Gestapo took charge of his train, led everyone into the woods, and systematically butchered them. Nobody believed Moishe and they thought that he’s going mad. Years pass by and in the spring of 1944, Germans occupied Hungary. They set up ghettos for the Jews. After a while, the Nazis began the deportation of the Jews to the concentration camp in Auschwitz. The Jews were forced into crowded cattle wagons, each containing of eighty people. The conditions of the train ride were horrific; they were treated no better than animals. A woman named Madame Schachter starts to go mad. She yells, “Fire! I can see a fire!” She yells about fire flames throughout the train ride. Everybody try to quiet her, but she was yelling none stop. When the train arrived at Birkenau, the reception center for Auschwitz, they saw the fire flames and the air smelled of burning…

    Throughout the Holocaust Elie Wiesel changed physically and mentally, growing weaker. At first arrival at the Auschwitz concentration camp, Shlomo asked to go to the bathroom and was struck across the face and Elie’s thoughts stated “Only yesterday I would have dug my nails into this criminals flesh. Had I changed that much? So fast? Remorse began to gnaw at me” (39). Elie had just arrived at Auschwitz and he himself was already noticing the changes it had on him. The German soldiers put fear into the prisoners and took away the will to protect even the ones you love the most.…

    Eliezer Wiesel, a boy from Sighet, has survived a horrible experience in the hands of the Germans. It all started in 1942 when Moishe the Beadle, his friend and instructor in the Kabbalah, was deported from Sighet. Moishe escaped to warn others of the horrors that awaited them. Sadly, no one wanted to listen, even though Eliezer “[had] asked [his] father to sell everything, to liquidate everything, and to leave” (Wiesel 08). A few months after that, the Germans invaded Sighet, promptly ordered the Jews to give up anything valuable, and then ended up making them stay with other Jews in a ghetto. After, Jews were eventually deported in cattle cars, not knowing where they were to end up. Eliezer’s first view of the concentration camp where they first arrived was “flames rising from a small chimney into a black sky” (Wiesel 27) and “In the air, the smell of burning flesh” (Wiesel 28). Life in the concentration camps was awfully…

    After the prisoners endure months of cruel labor and the war is coming closer to home, the Jews are being moved to inland Germany. As Wiesel mentions, “The SS pushed us in, a hundred to a carriage, we were so thin!” (92). Over the next 10 days, Wiesel and the others are kept alive only by snow and bread with rations smaller than ever. The means for survival are so scarce, that the Jews even fight each other to the death within the cramped space of a cattle car only for a small piece of food. The train moves slowly, as stopping to rid the cars of the emaciated dead only become more frequent. Finally, the convoy arrives to Wiesel’s last destination in his horrifying experience. Unfortunately, the treatment and environment of the Jews continues to deteriorate the closer they get to the end of the war. This makes life for Wiesel all the harder, as his father now has contracted dysentery and is confined to the sick ward. Even in his final days, dehumanization is truly prevalent in Wiesel’s sick father. As described to Wiesel by the head of the block, “Here, there are no fathers, no brothers, no friends. Everyone lives and dies for himself alone” (105). This mindset carries on within the camp until Wiesel’s father’s eventual death. Without his father, Wiesel is left alone in the…

    Throughout the ages, it has been believed that fate has the power to forge one’s destiny. By some uncontrollable force, the outcome of a person’s choices is controlled by the way in which they are destined to occur. On the other hand though, some believe these choices can defy fate and that fate only manipulates one's mind into choosing their own path. One question that seemed to pop into my head through out this play was whether individuals were victims of fate or their I own choices, or if each aspect plays a significant part in determining their destiny. In the play Macbeth, William Shakespeare plays around with the idea of fate, placing the destiny of Macbeth before him, yet allowing his own ambitions and desires to drive him insane in order to achieve it. However, at the beginning of the play, Macbeth is portrayed as a good man. Yet he decides to commit, not one or to two, but a series of bad actions that only he had the power to control.…

    Cellular respiration is the process of converting chemical energy of organic molecules such as glucose into a form of energy usable by organisms. This energy is mainly produced in the mitochondrial matrix and takes form in the molecule adenosine triphosphate [also known as ATP], which is made up of an adenosine with a three phosphate tail group. The reason why ATP produces energy is due to the loss of the third phosphate group. The third phosphate, when released, releases the bond energy and supplies it to whichever cell needs the energy. This causes the ATP to form into adenosine diphosphate [ADP], a molecule that does not supply energy to any cells.…

    Early North Americans, or Native Americans, were a blend of many different people. Their lifestyles varied, depending on where they settled. Some relied heavily on hunting and gathering, some relied heavily on agriculture and farming, and others relied heavily on fishing. Even when it came to language, they were very diverse, as early North Americans spoke as many as around 1,000 different languages. In order to communicate with one another or with explorers venturing to new lands, a conversation had to be translated into many dialects until it was translated into the local understood one, and even though they were already there, they were in a sense looked…
