which was violet light. There wasn’t anybody else there‚ or [sic]any thing. There was just violet light- and a hum.” (Vonnegut 43) In this scene‚ he continues to “swing” through stages‚ back into life‚ until “he was in pre-birth‚ which was red light” (43). These two colors are a split complementary duo on the color wheel; they share a common hue‚ yet look quite different and carry distinct meanings. This speaks to the duality of birth and death. Vonnegut possibly chose violet light for death because

| Lights Out! is an electronic game that was released by Tiger Toys in 1995. It is also now a flash game online. The game consists of a 5x5 grid of lights. When the game stats a set of lights are switched to on randomly or in a pattern. Pressing one light will toggle it and the lights adjacent to it on and off. The goal of the game is to switch all the lights off in as few button presses as possible. In the folling examples‚ 1 will represent a “on” light and 0 will represent an “off” light. Yellow

“STREET LIGHT” is one of the major power consuming factors. Most of the time we see street lights are ON even after sunrise thus wasting lot of energy. Over here we are avoiding the problem by having an automatic system which turns ON & OFF the street lights at given time or when the ambient light falls below a specific intensity. All streetlights are connected to a central computer from where the time at which the lights are to be turned ON/OFF can be set. An LDR is used to check if the lights have

because blue light has a higher absorbance by plant photosynthetic pigments and has a higher energy wavelength than red light‚ we predicted that juniper needles placed in blue light would photosynthesize faster than juniper needles placed in red light. We measured the rate of change in CO2 concentration due to juniper needles. For each sample‚ we placed the needles into a chamber connected to the CO2 monitor and measured the rate of change of CO2 concentration for 10 minutes under red light and then

In Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness‚ the juxtaposition of light and dark -- in addition to an abundance of imagery-- serves as a vehicle to understanding Conrad’s tainted view of humanity as deeply flawed. There are reoccurring light and dark images which symbolize the good and evil in mankind. Light represents both goodness and civilized Europe. Ironically‚ the light Europe is the place where the worst people are. Europeans are civilized‚ but inhumane. In contrast the references to darkness symbolize

There are two contrasting views that light either consists of particles or waves. Light is a perplexing phenomenon puzzled by Ancient Greeks and scientists for years. Even Issac Newton developed incorrect theories on light‚ when he was the inventor and genius behind physics. It has been proved that light can be both a particle and a wave. Human eyes collect light that is reflected from a source. For example‚ the light from a pencil comes from the source of light in the sun and travels to the pencil

Light Transmission Through Liquids With Different Viscosities Introduction Aim This experiment investigates the effects of different liquid viscosities on light transmission. The results of this experiment could greatly benefit marine biologists or other marine scientists. This would help them figure out how their flashlights would work in different water conditions in the ocean. Background Research Spectrophotometers are devices that measure the amount of light absorbed by a certain liquid

Isn’t it interesting how the use of light can be both an enhancement as well as a loss? “Light the Way” refers to helping one’s sight‚ whereas “blinded by the light” refers to light shining straight in one’s face‚ resulting in restricted vision. When Pablo Neruda says “the world is a glass overflowing with water” in “Ode to Enchanted Light” he means that the world is still full of hope. “Ode to enchanted light” by Pablo Neruda as well as “Sleeping in the forest” by Mary Oliver are poems that carry
