Many suggest that cancer and other diseases in these islands have been caused by the nuclear testing in the Pacific. I chose this topic because I was always interested in the overall culture of the Marshall Islands. I was raised in Guam‚ a United States

of this experiment was to determine the speed at which a reaction took place between an iodine and hydrogen peroxide solution. In addition to a change in concentration‚ a change in temperature and a catalyst variable was also introduced to conclude whether or not their presence affected the overall speed of the reaction. In order to determine the effects of these variables‚ several iodine and hydrogen peroxide reactions were prepared‚ (all at varying temperatures‚ volumes‚ and concentrations)‚ and

Debate Intro The pictures in front of you are the gruesome results of the utter destruction after the atomic bombs were dropped on both Japanese cities. Almost half a million victims; equivalent to 13‚000 tons of TNT; a 1.6 mile radius of destruction/bomb (within that radius‚ people were disintegrated‚ leaving shadows where they stood). Housewives and children were incinerated instantly‚ their internal organs boiled and their bones charred into brittle charcoal. 65% of the casualties were nine

On August 9th‚ 1945‚ the second Atomic Bomb was dropped on Nagasaki‚ and only three days earlier the first was seen in Hiroshima. These were two of the numerous events that propelled the most powerful combatants in history‚ the United States and Soviet Union‚ into the dangerous arms race we know as the Cold War. Many ask‚ “Was it necessary?” This is a controversial topic‚ asking whether or not the massacre of hundreds of thousands of Japanese civilians was worth saving a much smaller number of military

In 1945‚ when the atomic bomb was dropped in Japan I felt that it was not justified. Even though it saved thousands of American lives it was at the cost of others lives. The United States could have gave the Japanese a warning before dropping not one‚ but two bombs on them.

Also Thomson’s theory couldn’t explain the atomic spectrum and other properties of the atom. The Gold Foil experiment led to the discovery of the Nuclear Model and the existence of an atomic nucleus and protons. In the experiment‚ Rutherford directed a narrow beam of alpha particles at a thin piece if gold foil. With the prediction that the positive charges would go
