Physics is a natural science that involves the study of matter and its motion through space and time‚ along with related concepts such as energy and force. More broadly‚ it is the general analysis of nature‚ conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves. Physics is one of the oldest academic disciplines‚ perhaps the oldest through its inclusion of astronomy. Over the last two millennia‚ physics was a part of natural philosophy along with chemistry‚ certain branches of mathematics‚ and

has intrigued me from an early age. I am always curious about how things work. Since taking AP Physics this year‚ I have been able to appreciate how math and science work together. I have taken other rigorous courses‚ but often it felt like learning math was isolated from other coursework. Math challenges me to problem solve and think at a higher level. I also love science‚ but until I took AP Physics my science classes were too easy. The labs in freshmen and sophomore science were enjoyable‚ but

Thiscontainer could be displaced vertically in order to change the water level. We would thenmake a tuning fork vibrate above the pipe and change the water level until the resonance wasat maximum intensity.Hypothesis: The

The Importance Paulo Coelho explained‚ “Why is patience so important?" "Because it makes us pay attention.” Being patient and attention to detail are few of many characteristics that are essential to being a proficient healthcare provider. Healthcare providers have a very important job and these characteristics correspond to one another in everyday actions. I always thought of myself as a very patient person and while working at a daycare realized that along with patience came the importance of

needed to pick something that was centered on physics. At first we were looking doing something towards space or the speed of light‚ but then Karina brought up the topic of roller coasters and it stuck. It really sounded like a fun topic to cover. In this essay we will be exploring the world of roller coasters. Some of the topics we will cover will be the history‚ the principles that allow the cars to continue throughout the length of the track‚ and the physics of roller coasters. The history of rollercoasters
