Fiber Optics Fiber Optic Cable Facts "A relatively new technology with vast potential importance‚ fiber optics is the channeled transmission of light through hair-thin glass fibers." [ Less expensive than copper cables [ Raw material is silica sand [ Less expensive to maintain If damaged‚ restoration time is faster (although more users are affected) [ Backbone to the Information Superhighway Information (data and voice) is transmitted through the fiber digitally by the use of high

Vaccines represent one of the great achievements in public health. A turning point in the war against pathogenic infection occurred over 200 years ago when Edward Jenner used cowpox to elicit protective immune responses against a devastating outbreak of smallpox. Since then‚ the use of safe and effective vaccines to prevent infection has become a fundamental aspect of modern medicine. While many vaccination campaigns have been successful‚ the constant emergence‚ and re-emergence‚ of pathogens challenges

alignment with the foot structure‚ like a tendon‚ connecting the muscle to the bone. It then spanned the joint‚ like a ligament‚ and connected bone to bone. Herr’s prosthetic knee employs something called magnetorheological fluid‚ a suspension of micrometer-sized magnetic particles in a carrier fluid‚ like oil. MR fluid is used to reinforce Kevlar armor; Herr used it to help vary the resistance of the knee as it moves. The original prosthetic with MR fluid weighed 10 pounds. The latest version is down

complete organisms‚ such as the unicellular bacteria and protozoa; others‚ such as nerve‚ liver‚ and muscle cells‚ are specialized components of multi-cellular organisms. Cells range in size from the smallest bacteria-like mycoplasmas‚ which are 0.1 micrometer in diameter‚ to the egg yolks of ostriches‚ which are about 8 cm (about 3 in) in diameter. Although they may differ widely in appearance and function‚ all cells have a surrounding membrane and an internal‚ water-rich substance called the cytoplasm

Lab Report 3: Electrical Properties of Ceramic Materials Lab III: Physical Properties of Materials By Will Paxton 3/5/07 Abstract The electrical properties of 5 different samples were studied. Characterization of these samples was through the dielectric properties‚ as this is a very important step. The capacitance was measured for each sample incrementally while heating them up to 135ºC. In a second part to the experiment‚ piezoelectric samples were studied‚ and their piezoelectric coefficient
