The sport of tennis has multiple opportunities in which the study of physics can go in depth. The sport’s court‚ racquet‚ ball‚ and even the player contain unlimited amounts of physics in which a person can go more into detail with as they study. While it is true that these all contain some form of physics‚ the racquet and how it interacts with the ball is where most of the physics is apparent. Starting with the racquet a person is able to see four main areas of focus. These focuses consist of the

The Jewish Scripture starts right at the beginning of time itself‚ where God created the universe‚ and only then did he create the earth (Genesis 1). Right from the beginning God has had an intimate connection between God and the world‚ and this connection is believed to continue throughout time. From the moment god created humanity (Gen. 1:26)‚ we were created for the one purpose to protect the earth. But it is in the story of Noah that we perhaps truly learn about the role that God had created

The Physics of Badminton Gerard Ramos Physics 4A Prof. Scott Hildreth I would like to start off with a light introduction to the sport of Badminton. Badminton is a sport that isn’t too popular in the United States; some people would even say that it shouldn’t even be called a “sport”. The majority see badminton from a “back-yard sport” point of view‚ part of this is due to the lack of actual badminton court facilities in America‚ also because it’s a bit expensive to play. Badminton is not

2015 Literary Analysis Fences / Death of a Salesman August Wilson’s Fences depicts the life of a former Negro League baseball player turned sanitation worker Troy Maxson and the relationships he has with the people around him. Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman mainly focuses on the tragically unsuccessful life of Willy Loman and the impact he has on his family. In this essay I will examine these characters and their impacts on their loved ones. In the story Fences‚ Troy Maxson exemplifies

TUBERCULOSIS Tuberculosis‚ commonly known as TB‚ is a contagious and an often severe airborne disease caused by a bacterial infection. TB typically affects the lungs‚ but it also may affect any other organ of the body. It is usually treated with a regimen of drugs taken for 6 months to 2 years‚ depending on the type of infection Tuberculosis was popularly known as consumption for a long time. Scientists know it as an infection caused by M. tuberculosis. In 1882‚ the microbiologist Robert Koch discovered

Week #7 Chapter 10 Static and Current Electricity Exercises (p.221) 6. Strictly speaking‚ will a penny be slightly more massive if it has a negative charge or a positive charge? Explain. A negative charge because when it is negatively charged electrons are added to the penny. 17. What is the voltage at the location of a 0.0001 C charge that has an electric potential energy of 0.5 J (both voltage and potential relative to the same reference point)? Potential = energy Charge = 0.5 J / 0.0001

HG-1 THE HEAT OF FUSION OF ICE Introduction When heat flows into a system there are a number of things that can happen. One result could be a temperature rise. Or‚ the system might even catch fire. A third possibility is a change of state. As you know‚ matter exists in three states (or maybe four‚ the fourth being a plasma)‚ solid‚ liquid and gaseous. At different temperatures‚ the same substance may be in different states. Each state is characterized by the way the interatomic forces act. In solids

1. Properties of light Reflection The speed of light is measured through the equation: v = λ f. However‚ it turns out that when light is reflected off a surface its speed stays the same. This was first proven by Sir Isaac Newton. Under the assumption of perfectly elastic collision‚ the laws of reflection follow from the laws of motion. To demonstrate‚ consider a particle traveling towards a flat frictionless surface whose horizontal and vertical velocity components are: VX and VY. When the particle
