Determining a Person’s Power through height/work Power is denoted by the formula‚ P = mgh/t. In lifting a bag‚ work is done. So in order to get power we recorded our weight‚ measured the weight of the bag‚ and the time it took to lift a bag. The experiment is done in two ways 1) with constant time and 2) with constant height. In this way‚ we can compare and know if there will be a difference in the amount of power exerted by a person if either time or height will be constant. The formulated

This number is called Avogadro’s number in honour of Amedeo Avogadro. Full name‚ Lorenzo Romano Amedeo Carlo Avogadro was an Italian physicist‚ born in Italy on August 9‚ 1776. Avogadro graduated in law at the age of 31. He then dedicated himself to physics and mathematics and soon after starting teaching at a high school. In 1811‚ he published an article that contained his hypothesis. Later in 1820‚ he became a professor at a university‚ but lost his job in 1823 due to his involvement in the revolutionary

The speed of light is a well-established premise in physics. Centuries before‚ it was often heard by scientists like Johannes Kepler and Rene Descartes that the speed of light was infinite‚ having the ability to travel at any distance immediately. A notable physicist named Galileo Galilei was one of the first scientists to ponder this phenomenon of light‚ and how to determine the speed of this unknown. In order to do so‚ Galilei formulates an experiment with an assistant. While standing on one hilltop

Also‚ Isaac Newton had made contributions to mathematics‚ physics‚ astronomy‚ and optics.

With the Principia‚ Newton created a mathematical framework for physics and conceived basic laws of motion and of universal gravitation that unify a diverse array of phenomena both in the heavens and on earth (Weisburd 51). The revolutionary power of the Principia and other Newtonian works is felt to this day: His celestial

Throughout history many great leaders have risen from both strife and victory. Men and women that have the ability to inspire‚ drive‚ and influence other people and life for generations to come. Albert Einstein (Einstein) is one of those leaders. His accomplishments have forever impacted the world and how its people see it. Einstein was born at Ulm‚ in Württemberg‚ Germany‚ on March 14‚ 1879 to a non-practicing Jewish family‚ something that would become troublesome for him and his family during

In other words‚ if determinism fails it should fail by physics not because of commitment to substantivalist theory that we could get rid of without affecting the empirical nature of the theory. My view is that the ‘hole’ argument is in invalid argument‚ that has no bases for its argument and no proof to back
