LAB WRITE-UP NAME: Gabriel-Ohanu Emmanuel PARTNER: Baptiste Gilman TITLE: Graph Matching PURPOSE: The purpose of the experiment was to analyze the motion of a student walking along a straight line in front of the motion detector moving back and forward with different speed trying to match the graph provided. To also understand and interpret graphs of distance vs time and velocity vs time. To also know what the slopes of the each graph represent which tells how far the student travelled

Newton was a great physicist and mathematician‚ and was credited as one of the greatest minds of the 17th century and Scientific Revolution. With Isaac Newton’s discoveries in optics‚ motion and mathematics‚ he developed the principles of modern physics. At age 12‚ Isaac Newton had attended The King’s School‚ Grantham. Where he was taught the basics and classics‚ but he wasn’t taught any sciences or mathematics. When he turned 17‚ his mother stopped him from going to school so that he could be home

mathematical reasoning. He sites examples in life that support his hypothesis. His argument is of a scientific nature because he is making a hypothesis on a distinctive type of concept. The conclusions that Galileo made relate directly to the work in physics for which he is so well known. His conclusions put emphasis on shapes‚ numbers‚ and motion which are all properties that lend themselves to support through "reasoning back and forth between theory and experiment." I feel that Galileo’s argument

Theory of Relativity‚ which is the geometric theory of gravitation. He established the concept of mass-energy equivalence‚ e=mc^2. “He made some essential contributions to the early making of the quantum theory‚ which is the fundamental theory in physics which describes nature at at the smallest scales of energy levels of atoms and subatomic particles”(Mastin).

the first person to describe the force of gravity and make the perception of the scientific world more than clear. Newton developed methods and theories in physics‚ optics and mathematics‚ he described his laws of motion in 1687 in his work titled “Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica”. Isaac Newton derived an understanding of physics by combining his ideas of force and motion under a single theory‚ Newton’s laws of motion. Isaac Newton was born on December 25th‚ 1642 in Woolsthorpe‚ United

The Other Side of Einstein Albert Einstein‚ arguably the greatest scientist and mathematician of all time‚ is mostly known for his prominent scientific discoveries and achievements. He is often perceived by the public as a scientist who lived his life in his laboratory studying‚ void of any social life. However‚ in the essay "My Friend‚ Albert Einstein" by Banesh Hoffmann‚ Einstein’s long time friend attempts to depict Einstein as a humble and compassionate man‚ contrary to the mythological figure

The most influential figure of the 20th century is Albert Einstein. He did so much to define our understanding of the natural world and gave science the formulas and knowledge to control so many aspects of our modern lives. He predicted atoms before they were discovered. He was the first to postulate a particle of light. This first paper of 1905 described the photoelectric effect and predicted photons. This allowed the invention of television‚ digital cameras‚ and remote controls. This work allowed

“All I know is that I know nothing” argued the deep ancient philosopher Socrates. His argument is based on the fact that one cannot know anything with absolute certainty; they could only know something with a fractional amount of confidence. Socrates had written this quote nearly two thousand year ago. With our vast advances in modern technology‚ science‚ mathematics‚ and equipment to record data‚ over the last two millenniums‚ one would assume that we would long grow this view of not knowing anything

Newton who founded universal laws and a mechanical universe. The scientific revolution was based on a belief in core transformation from cosmology and astronomy to physics. The significance of the scientific revolution is that it is a period that saw a transformation on the fundamentals of multiple scientific ideas such as mathematics‚ physics‚ astronomy and biology‚ as well as there
