Jacqueline Litz 9/1/12 Day 2 Block A “History cannot give us a program for the future‚ but it can give us a fuller understanding of ourselves‚ and of our common humanity‚ so that we can better face the future” -Robert Penn Warren. History is the analysis and interpretation of the human past that enables us to study continuity and change over time. If it wasn’t for the study of our nation’s past there would be no way to identify the American identity. The study of the world’s history shows the

Number A-7713 “Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever. […] Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things‚ even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never” (Wiesel). This quote‚ taken from the book Night by Elie Wiesel‚ testifies to the concept of transformation for Eliezer‚ a Jewish teenager who was forced to experience the horrors of the Holocaust. Eliezer‚ when living

NUMBER SYSTEM Definition It defines how a number can be represented using distinct symbols. A number can be represented differently in different systems‚ for instance the two number systems (2A) base 16 and (52) base 8 both refer to the same quantity though the representations are different. When we type some letters or words‚ the computer translates them in numbers as computers can understand only numbers. A computer can understand positional number system where there are only a few symbols

Perfect numbers Mathematicians have been fascinated for millenniums by the properties and patterns of numbers. They have noticed that some numbers are equal to the sum of all of their factors (not including the number itself). Such numbers are called perfect numbers. A perfect number is a whole number‚ an integer greater than zero and is the sum of its proper positive devisors‚ that is‚ the sum of the positive divisors excluding the number itself. Equivalently‚ a perfect number is a number that is

Graham’s number‚ named after Ronald Graham‚ is a large number that is an upper bound on the solution to a certain problem in Ramsey theory. The number gained a degree of popular attention when Martin Gardner described it in the "Mathematical Games" section of Scientific American in November 1977‚ writing that‚ "In an unpublished proof‚ Graham has recently established ... a bound so vast that it holds the record for the largest number ever used in a serious mathematical proof." The 1980 Guinness

ABSTRACT Reynolds number can be defined as a number of varieties of situations where a fluid is in relative with motion to a surface. This experiment is to observe the behavior of the flow of fluid either it is laminar or turbulent by calculating it’s Reynolds number and the characteristic of the flow. Other than that‚ the range for laminar and turbulent flow can be calculated and the theory that Reynolds number is dimensionless can be proven. The pump is opened to let the water flow. The dye

Oxidation Number When elements combine to produce a compound‚ each element is assigned an “apparent” charge. This apparent charge‚ the charge an atom would have if both electrons in each bond were assigned to the more electronegative element‚ may be positive or negative. It is called the oxidation number or state of the element in the compound. Oxidation numbers are very useful in keeping track of what happens to electrons when various elements combine to form compounds. By remembering a few
