The Great Chicago Fire was one of the largest U.S. disasters of the 19th century‚ and destroyed much of the city’s businesses.

Abstract Similar to roller-coaster motion‚ this experiment analyzes the relationship between the kinetic energy of a wooden block and the distance a mass falls. Based on the results‚ the block’s kinetic energy and velocity increase with the falling distance‚ as predicted. But little changes in velocity near the end of the motion show that friction and other factors might be important. The block’s maximum velocity ranged from 0.869 to 1.193 m/s at different falling distances‚ and its resulting kinetic

A dystopia is a world gone wrong‚ in Chicago it is wrong in many ways. Being dehumanized by your factions‚ being injected with different serums and mind controlling tracking devices. In the movie Divergent‚ there are multiple examples of why and how a dystopia is a world gone wrong. Being raised your parents faction‚ is being forced to grow up a certain way. It is wrong that you do not have the freedom to explore different things and be creative. Beatrice and Caleb were born and raised Abnegations
