Required Vocabulary – IB 12 Higher Level Physics and Physical Measurement 1. Fundamental Units – seven basic units of the SI measurement system: kilogram‚ second‚ mole‚ meter‚ ampere‚ Kelvin‚ candela. 2. Derived Units – units that are combinations of fundamental units. These combinations may or may not have a separate name. (eg. 1 kg m/s2 = 1 N) 3. Accuracy - An indication of how close a measurement is to the accepted value (a measure of correctness). 4. Precision - An indication

Year 12 Physics 2014 ER – The Physics of Medicine Extended Response Task [Type the author name] This report will discuss how cerebrovascular disease‚ in particular ischemic stroke‚ can be diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging scans. It will go through the different MRI sequences and the physics behind them. Evidence from two case studies are presented‚ which use the MRI sequences discussed within this report. Consequently‚ the recent advances in diagnostic techniques and methodologies will

Chapter One Quick Check: 1. Cells were not discovered by Hippocrates because he didn’t have the technology and equipment to. 2. Robert Hooke is credited with the discovery of the basic building block of living organisms. 3. Robert Brown is credited with the discovery of the cell nucleus. 4. Schleiden and Schwann’s contribution to biology was proposing that cells are the basic structural unit for plants and animals. 5. Before Virchow‚ one idea was that living things could arise from non-living

Truss Bridge Physics 141 Robin Hoffmeister There is many reason that we need bridges in every day of our life‚ from sufficient means to pass over a roadway‚ waterway‚ railway‚ or other structure. You don’t even think about them because it takes no effort to get over them and they are just there for your use. So if you don’t think of them for everyday use I highly doubt that you would think of the physics that is involved in putting one together or the kind of force the bridge can actually

UNIT I: FOUNDATIONS (8000 BCE TO 600 CE) Of all the time periods covered in the AP World History curriculum‚ Foundations (8000 BCE - 600 CE) spans the largest number of years. It begins with an important Marker Event - the Neolithic Revolution - and ends after the fall of three major classical civilizations - Rome in the Mediterranean region‚ Han China‚ and the Gupta Empire of India. Broad topics addressed in the Foundations time period are: Environmental and periodization issues Early development

But instead the flowers taught him three lessons. His first lesson that he learnt was to become brave and to remember the place where the flower came from‚ as referred to line 1‚ 5-6 " Brave flowers that I could gallant it like you"‚ " You are not proud you know your birth for your embroidered garments are from earth." Line 1 can also be identified as a literary device known as personification because brave flowers cannot gallant which only living things such as animals or humans can do. Also in line

Plasma Complexity! Plasma is said to a substance similar to gas in which a certain portion of the particles are ionized. The basic premise is that heating a gas dissociates its molecular bonds‚ rendering it into its constituent atoms. Further heating leads ionization‚ turning it into plasma: containing charged particles‚ positive ions and negative electrons. The presence of a non-negligible number of charge carriers makes the plasma electrically conductive so that it responds strongly to electromagnetic

potentials are similar in that they are produced by conductance changes due to the opening or closing of channels. Receptor/ Generator Potentials differ from Action Potentials (APs) in that only APs involve the opening of voltage-gated ion channels. The strength of a stimulus can be coded by an increase in the number of APs from a single receptor and an increase in the number of active receptors. The property that allows receptors to code aspects of a dynamic or changing stimulus is fast adaptation
