INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this experiment was to test the validity of the Law of Reflection and Snell’s Law (Also known as the Law of Refraction). Reflection is defined as the reversal in direction of a particle stream or wave upon encountering a boundary. The law of reflection states that the angle of reflection and angle of incidence are equal‚ with each angle being measured from the normal to the boundary: Refraction is defined as the bending of light that takes place at a boundary between

Reflection Paper on “THE DEATH OF MUSIC” Robert R Reilly in Surprised by Beauty I personally disagree with the notions that music is intended solely for the purpose of any one agenda. It is a medium for reflection. It is a mirror. A mirror reflects the image of whatever is directed at it; likewise‚ music reflects the immediate emotion that is conveyed by the musician playing it and translates that into an audible‚ tangible sound that speaks into the audience. Music alone has no purpose

Breaking these laws would mean doing something like stealing‚ killing‚ or cheating. As cultures evolved‚ and beliefs changed‚ written‚ social‚ and ethical laws often conflicted with each other and created conflicts in society‚ as described by the play Antigone by Sophocles. In this play‚ there is a clear conflict between the written law made by the king‚ and the higher law‚ dictated by the religious beliefs of the time. When Creon‚ the king of Thebes‚ decrees that the body of Polyneices should be left

Light Reflection and Refraction Pre-Lab using PhET I) Introduction: When a light ray strikes a smooth interface separating two transparent materials (like air‚ glass‚ or water)‚ the wave is partly reflected and partly refracted (or transmitted) into the second material. For an example of this‚ imagine you are outside looking at a restaurant window. You can probably see both the inside of the restaurant (from the refracted light) and some of the street behind you (from the reflected light). Similarly

are constantly faced with situations that challenge their judgement and morality. While they all encounter similar ethical questions‚ the characters in The Oedipus Cycle all resolve their dilemmas in different ways. From the logic-minded nature of Antigoné to the overconfident nature of Oedipus‚ the way each and every character of The Oedipus Cycle deals with major moral dilemmas is an insight into not only their unique personalities‚ but also their status in society. The Oedipus Cycle‚ in short‚ is

Tragic Hero The Greek play‚ Antigone stresses the position of power and virtue against written law. Creon‚ in my opinion best qualifies for being the tragic hero. His actions‚ words‚ and the comments surrounding him prove that a man who is supplied for life could lose all of it. His actions demonstrate him as a tragic hero. Creon’s belief in nationalism and leadership is demonstrated when he said: “I call to God to witness that if I saw my country headed for ruin‚ I should not be afraid to speak
