Projectile Motion You have probably watched a ball roll off a table and strike the floor. What determines where it will land? Could you predict where it will land? In this experiment‚ you will roll a ball down a ramp and determine the ball’s velocity with a pair of Photogates. You will use this information and your knowledge of physics to predict where the ball will land when it hits the floor.

In his work "Dialogue with Trypho" Justin Martyr in a form of a dialogue presents the views quite contrary to what it is usually taught. A well-known idea of Jews being the chosen nation favored by God is rejected. Justin Martyr is trying to find logic underneath God’s wrath‚ and his line of argumentation‚ based on analysis of the Old Testament‚ does emphasize the idea that Jews were punished by Mosaic rules for improper behavior. Jews are the chosen nation not because God likes them‚ but rather

The Discovery of the Fibonacci Sequence A man named Leonardo Pisano‚ who was known by his nickname‚ "Fibonacci"‚ and named the series after himself‚ first discovered the Fibonacci sequence around 1200 A.D. The Fibonacci sequence is a sequence in which each term is the sum of the 2 numbers preceding it. The first 10 Fibonacci numbers are: (1‚ 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ 5‚ 8‚ 13‚ 21‚ 34‚ 55‚ 89). These numbers are obviously recursive. Fibonacci was born around 1170 in Italy‚ and he died around 1240 in Italy

The discovery of the light bulb Finally the bell rings everybody running toward homeroom I take my time and pack my books away. We just watched a video about Virginia part of the 13 colonies back then in history class. Since I was the last one to leave my teacher Mrs.Trovato said “did you enjoy watching the video?”I quietly respond yes and start wondering about how people survived back then. When I came back from school I changed my skinny jeans and blouse in to my sweats and tank top. Quickly

Many of the first textile mills and other factories were built in the New England region as there were a large number of fast flowing rivers which made it easy for the transportation of goods and they also had a large population. Later‚ Samuel Slater made many other spinning mills and also other factories in the Northeast side. Thus‚ the society turned into an urban society. This concentration of industries in the Northeast side had given ways to the development of transportation such as railroads

intensive exploration and colonization of the world. Some of the many motives for exploration were that the Europeans wanted prestige‚ power‚ wealth‚ and to convert individuals to Christianity. Some historians often refer to this as the Age of Discovery‚ in which the Portuguese and Spaniards play a major role during this time.

AP Physics HW #1 Multiple Choice 1. A car travels 30 miles at an average speed of 60 miles per hour and then 30 miles at an average speed of 30 miles per hour. The average speed the car over the 60 miles is (A) 35 m.p.h. (B) 40 m.p.h. (C) 45 m.p.h. (D) 10 m.p.h. (E) 53 m.p.h. Answer: B. Method: Vavg = Δx/Δt The average speed is the total distance traveled‚ divided by the total time. They give us all distances traveled is‚ so we just need to find the time. We find the time‚ by applying
