In my family there is a tradition of interest in science: my grandmother was college professor in chemistry and physics‚ and both my parents were trained as mechanical engineers in college. When I was a kid‚ my mom showed me a box full of extremely tiny gears — those that table clocks are made out of — and told me what each part was for. And I remember thinking "this is the coolest tiling I’ve ever seen!’ I have been interested in mechanical structures and the inner working of human-made and natural

Physics (Thorpe Park Trip) Report: On Monday 8th October our physics class went on a physics trip to Thorpe Park to look at the different ways in which a roller coast works. This report will be looking at the G forces acting on rides‚ the launching systems and breaking systems. The particular rollercoaster which I have picked to look into more detail in is “Stealth” which is located in Thorpe Park. Stealth: Stealth was originally designed by Werner Stengel. Stealth reaches a height of 205 feet

There are many energy sources that can be readily converted into electricity. In Australia‚ most power plants burn a fuel‚ such as coal‚ or use the energy of falling water to generate electricity on a large scale. Electricity is also relatively

1643‚ in Woolsthorpe‚ England. Isaac 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

Although attending the University for a short time‚ the two years benefited him extremely in beginning to charm him of the idea about gravity. In addition‚ he also focused on optics and mathematics‚ where current day calculus was just a mere idea of little to no importance. Not giving up his aspire to make a little idea into a dream‚ Newton returned to Cambridge in 1667‚ where he became a fellow of Trinity College. He was appointed

Polarized light are those that are vibrating in one direction- in a single plane such as up and down. Those that are vibrating in more than one direction -- in more than one plane such as both up/down and left/right -- are called unpolarized light. Generally‚ unpolarized light can be considered to be vibrating in a vertical and a horizontal plane. To polarize light‚ one can transmit the light through a polariod filter which will only allow light of single polarity to pass. The resulting light will
