    Chapter 13 – States of Matter Pressure (P) – the amount of force per unit area. Pressure=F/a  or  P=F/a Pascal’s Principle “Any change in pressure at a point on a confined fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid”.  Any change is transmitted throughout the fluid. Buoyancy & Archimedes Principle “When an object is submerged in a fluid‚ it displaces a certain volume of that fluid.  The amount of force pushing upward on the object is equal to the density of the fluid (ρ) times the acceleration

    Cyclic dienes added to alkene dienophiles also lead to two new form of stereoisomeric products‚ the endo and exo products (Kilway‚ “Lecture”). In cases where dienes and dienophiles align above one another‚ the endo product is formed (Hunt). The endo product will have two axial substituent groups (Kilway‚ “Lecture”). This formation typically forms the major product because it takes less kinetic energy to be formed due to secondary orbital interactions with the substituents in transition states (Hunt)

    Do you ever feel like someone is watching you when you walk past a mirror? That’s because we are always watching you. I’ve been hanging on the wall at the Capulet house for more than 15 years. In those years‚ I watched our young Juliet grow up into a fine woman‚ several servants come and go‚ and so many interested parties take place in this home like the one last night. I’ve seen enemies enter‚ revenge be sworn‚ and a forbidden love blossom. Capulet’s party last night was interesting to say the least

    2.1 Who invented the first colour wheel and how/why? The 1st colour wheel was brought by Isaac Newton. Isaac Newton halved white sunlight into red‚ orange‚ yellow‚ green‚ cyan‚ and blue rays; he then joined the two ends of the colour together to show the natural process of colours. Newton associated a colour with a note from the musical scale. 3.2.2 Explain how the colour wheel works? Colors are often associated with primary‚ secondary or tertiary colours . Primary colours are those that make every

    Refractive Index: Refractive Index formula is use to find the change of speed of light as it travels from air into glass. It measure how much light slows down when it enters denser medium such as glass. The formulae is written as: To find out the refractive index‚ substitute these into the equation; The speed of light travels in air is 3 x 10^8-1 The speed of light travels in glass is 2 x 10^8 ms^-1 Refractive Index (Glass): 3 x 10^8 / 2 x 10^8 = 1.5 When light enters glass‚ its reflective index

    Introduction: To do the lab exercises for this lesson‚ you need to know a little bit about light. White light consists of all the colors of the rainbow mixed together. Diffraction refers to various phenomena which occur when a wave encounters an obstacle. In classical physics‚ the diffraction phenomenon is described as the apparent bending of waves around small obstacles and the spreading out of waves past small openings. Isaac Newton thought that light must be a particle because particles of light

    Visual Perception Pictorial depth cues are what we use to create depth and distance on a 2D canvas or paper. Linear perspective is used when two parallel lines converge together and are perceived to come to a point into the distance. We perceive this in straight roads‚ railway tracks or hallways. This image displays linear perspective on the left side on the box as it is perceived to come together despite the fact that the lines are parallel. Interposition is used when an object sits in front
