In Newtonian physics‚ free fall is any motion of a body where its weight is the only force acting upon it. In the context of general relativity‚ where gravitation is reduced to a space-time curvature‚ a body in free fall has no force acting on it and it moves along a geodesic. The present article only concerns itself with free fall in the Newtonian domain. An object in the technical sense of free fall may not necessarily be falling down in the usual sense of the term. An object moving upwards

Although the “free will” problem envelops a spectrum of ideas‚ I agree with the following belief: “The folk are compatibilists about free will.” While there are‚ of course‚ incompatibilists and indeterminists‚ for the most part‚ the general population consists of compatibilists.

The objective of this experiment is to conduct a free radical reaction and measure the ratio of products through a GC analysis. Free radical reactions are important to understand because they allow chemists to design synthesis of complex molecules from very simple organic molecules. The reagents used were 2‚3-dimethylbutane as the carbon chain‚ t-butyl peroxybenzoate as the initiator‚ and sulfuryl chloride as the source of chloride radicals. The predicted products are 1-chloro-2‚3-dimethylbutane
