I have no idea how to make my thesis statement!! The Scientific Revolution lasted between 1540-1690. Although in 1453 the Ottoman Turks invaded the city Constantinople‚ scholars fled west bringing ancient knowledge just in time as Europe started to challenge Aristotle’s physics. Advancements in many fields of science were made. Astronomy was the highest developed field advanced during the Scientific Revolution. A majority was relating to work from Aristoles. Until the Scientfic Revolution many theorised

Ernest Rutherford is the man behind the discovery of the central charge in a nucleus. This significant finding changed scientists view on atoms The discovery of the nucleus is one of‚ if not the most important to have ever been made. In this essay I will be discussing how previous assumptions of the atom’s shape‚ curiosity and an accident led to Rutherford’s discovery of the proton. Data and equations from his original journal will also be discussed to further prove the presence of a central charge

Have you ever wondered how trajectory and the pressure in the atmosphere affects the spin of a soccer ball? I don’t really play soccer that much‚ but I’ve never understood why the ball curves in the air when you kick it. For my science project‚ I wanted to learn about the pressure in the atmosphere and how it affects a soccer ball in flight. I believe that understanding Bernoulli’s Principle may help to explain why the trajectory affects the spin of a soccer ball. Daniel Bernoulli never imagined
