Lab 1 – Measurement of Space and Time Anthony Lucci Lab Partner: Amy Hayes Question 4: Both the height and diameter of the cylinder were taken to find the volume; five times for both measurements. Vernier calipers were used to get these measurements by clamping the cylinder between the jaws of the calipers. By looking at the mark of the zero‚ in relation to the main scale‚ the line best lined up with a line from the main scale was taken down. Getting

Nietkalieva Dinara IS113k Lab 1: Radio and Light Waves Virtual Lab 1) How is the radiating electric field (or electromagnetic signal) produced when radio stations broadcast? Include a description of what is producing the signal as well as the reasoning behind how this could produce a signal. We know that electromagnetic radiation is produced by accelerating charges. In the radio transmitter‚ electrons oscillate up and down and are thus accelerating. An electron will exert a force on another

Nuclear Weapons On August 1954‚ the United States dropped two atomic bombs on the cites of Hiroshima and Nagasaki killing over two hundred thousands instantly and more over time due to radiation and other injuries. These two bombs ended World War II and changed the public’s view of nuclear energy. Those bombs were the only nuclear weapons used in any war‚ but there were many more detonated for tests.(1) During a speech about the nuclear test ban Kennedy said “Eighteen years ago the advent of nuclear

NUCLEAR ENERGY Nuclear energy is the energy contained in the centre ‚ or nucleus of an atom. The nucleus is the most powerful source of energy that exist. Nuclear energy is use in scientific research and in medicine treatments. It powers satellites and submarines‚ and it is used to produce electricity. People have also put nuclear energy to destructive uses through the creation of weapons.1 Nuclear energy also called ATOMIC ENERGY‚ energy

determined. Only from the 1920s there were methods of calculating what elements were present in a gas by just observing its spectrum‚ due to the fact that different elements absorb and emit different wavelengths of light. (2) Gamow thought that nuclear fusions took place in the first minutes after the Big Bang‚ because he assumed that the initial components of the universe would have been seperate protons‚ neutrons and electrons. He hoped that they could build bigger atoms by fusion in the heat

Nuclear Energy There are many advantages and disadvantages of using nuclear power. Nuclear power is said to prevent power outages that happen in areas without nuclear power. For an example‚ if we were using hydroelectricity and the dam suddenly malfunctions‚ then we won’t have electricity until someone fixes the dam‚ and that would be difficult if it happened in the middle of the night. However‚ on the other hand‚ nuclear power is also considered toxic and it pollutes the Earth with harmful and

Maintaining Focus in Despair Class: GS2745 Date: 09/23/13 Unit#: 1 Lab#:1 I can recall a time where I had to maintain focus and persistence in spite of obstacles that I was facing at the time. This is in fact‚ in recent history as I was going through a combination of events that seems to have come out of nowhere. I am a full time student‚ and set to graduate in two quarters. Around the end of Spring quarter and beginning of the Summer Quarter‚ I lost my job. In addition to that‚ I was
