Have you ever wondered how trajectory and the pressure in the atmosphere affects the spin of a soccer ball? I don’t really play soccer that much‚ but I’ve never understood why the ball curves in the air when you kick it. For my science project‚ I wanted to learn about the pressure in the atmosphere and how it affects a soccer ball in flight. I believe that understanding Bernoulli’s Principle may help to explain why the trajectory affects the spin of a soccer ball. Daniel Bernoulli never imagined

Raman got Nobel prize in 1930. Write something about Raman signal‚ where does it come from? What are the implications of Raman? Raman is the inelastic scattering of light. The meaning of inelastic scattering is observable from the figure below. When an electron is excited by photons of applied light‚ it jumps from
