The Dinosaur’s Demise About 65 million years ago‚ a huge asteroid about 10 kilometers (6 miles) in diameter supposedly struck the Earth and caused the extinction of dinosaurs (Than). But is it really possible that one meteor could kill over 700 different species of dinosaurs? Could the asteroid really have been so big that it devastated the entire world? Is there any explanation to why the asteroid hit in the first place? There is no way that scientists could truly find the answer to any of these

SCIENCE-‐1 TERM PAPER The new Physics of Cosmic Redshift Introduction:As we all know that light travels from source in a straight line(ray) according to concepts of classical ray optics. Redshift is the phenomenon by which light rays from distant stars that are observed on earth‚ show smaller frequency (longer wavelength) i.e. shifted towards the “red” end of the visible light region. This phenomenon of redshift is conventionally explained by the well-known “Doppler effect”. But

When the center of a very large star collapses‚ it creates a stellar blackhole. When this process occurs ‚ it causes a supernova. A supernova is a star that suddenly increases greatly in brightness because of the catastrphic explosion that ejectsnmost of its mass. Scientists also think that when the galaxy was made‚ supermassive blackholes came into existence. Even though you

Gamma rays: used in cancer radiation treatments‚ come from radioactive material‚ also from supernova explosions. X-rays used in airports to look inside luggage‚ used for medical diagnostics‚ also created in stars (like our sun).Ultraviolet used to sterilize medical equipment and some foods‚ emitted by the sun and can cause skin cancer and mutations

the inward-directed gravitational forces are balanced by the outward-directed gas and radiation pressures. Nova: A star that suddenly becomes much brighter and then gradually returns to its original brightness over a period of weeks to years. Supernova: A rare celestial phenomenon involving the explosion of most of the material in a star‚ resulting in an extremely bright‚ short-lived object that emits vast amounts of energy.

The 5th state of matter INTRODUCTION Ice is transformed to water at 0°C when the energy of its molecules (particles) increases. Water is similarly transformed to vapor at 100°C (Fig.1). Much stronger zigzag motion of the particles separates and ionizes hydrogen and oxygen i.e. plasma comes into existence (above 13 000 K). Do all bodies fit one of these four states of matter? The answer is: no‚ e.g. the solar corona does not! Fig. 1 The temperature scale. It starts at 0K. Is it infinite long
