Chapter II Light and Matter The Inner Workings of the Cosmos 2.4 The Distribution of Radiation All microscopic objects – fires‚ cubes‚ people‚ and stars – emit radiation at all times. They radiate because the microscopic charged particles in them are in constant random motion‚ and whenever charges change their state of motion‚ electromagnetic radiation is emitted. The temperature of an object is a direct measure of the amount of microscopic motion within it. The hotter the object

talk as if Race Matters? Unwittingly or quite knowingly people have built systems of inequalities around race but people have also built identity‚ friendships‚ and college mates around it. Nevertheless‚ several people I recently interviewed never appeared to be certain when race was a good thing or when it was a bad thing to talk about‚ which in my mind leaves us all struggling with a particularly intimidating question: When should we talk as if race matters?

Subject:Chemistry Topic:States Of Matter What is matter? Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. All matter can exist in three(3)states. There are: solid‚ liquid and gas. In addition‚ all matter is made up of particles: atoms‚ molecules and ions. Solids In the solid state state‚ the particles are packed closely together in a regular manner. The focus of attraction between these particles are very strong and as a result solids are usually very hard and very difficult to compress

The Nature of Dark Matter We observe the universe around us through many scientific means. However it is through the electromagnetic spectrum‚ that is everything from radio waves to gamma waves‚ that we learn about the objects in our world and beyond. However we can also learn about our universe through indirect means‚ such as the effect of gravity on light as well as larger objects like our galaxy. In fact it is this indirect method of observation that has led us to the discovery of extra-solar
