Twenty First Century Twentieth Century
1,110 words
Poised motionless near the back door of the
twentieth-century, we ponder memories of the past
with a daydreaming stare. Before we turn off the
lights and lock the doors of the
twentieth-century, we take one last look through
the century in which we were nurtured and our
world lived for so long. The deep engraved
scratches upon the walls of the twentieth century
serve to jog our national memory to painful events
as well as amazing accomplishments. After much
reflective thought, we began to grasp ...

Mid Florida Tech Dollars An Hour Machining

I love making things with my hands so an obvious
choice for occupation would be some form of
engineering. Working with metal also interests me
so I herd of precision machining from a person
from Mid Florida Tech school that told me what it
was and thats about it. Machining involves taking
a raw piece of metal and boring, drilling,
milling, grinding, and turning until you end up
with a desired product. Also, these parts are to
exact specifications of the blueprints. Precise
measurements are taken...

Norman Campbell And His Contributions To Early Science
1,201 words
Norman Robert Campbell was a venerable man in the
history of scientific development. He was a
well-known British physicist and philosopher of
science whose main contribution to our scientific
world was the distinction between scientific
theories and laws. Norman was born in 1880 and
received an incredible education at Eton, soon to
be followed by his graduation from Trinity
College. Normans accomplishments did not stop
here, however. He worked at the Cavendish
Laboratory for seven years under a ...

by giving levodopa in conjunction with a substance
that slows its breakdown in the body. Sinemet, a
combination of levodopa and the inhibiting
substance carbidopa, has been available since
1975. Treatments must be fine-tuned to suit
individual patients depending on their symptoms
and stage of disease (Tactics, Toronto Star). For

Term Side Effects Family Members

Have you ever believed in something your entire
life, only to come to terms that your belief is
miss-informed? Recently something like that
happened to me. For a speech class I had to do
research on a popular drug called ecstasy, used at
raves and underground parties. My first take on
the drug was that it was very unstable and that it
could eventually lead to death. Obviously you
believe most stuff you read in the news, and so I
took the news to heart about ecstasy. The problem
was that the sour...

Cross Sectional R R
864 words
Determination of r for a Metallic Conductor To
determine the resistivity (r) of a given sample of
wire Physical factors that affect the resistance
of a conductor are length, cross sectional area
and a constant that depends upon the material
called the resistivity. The resistance per unit
length is the same all along a uniform wire so if
the resistance of different lengths of a wire is
found out, the resistivity can be calculated.
Resistance of a material, R = Voltage / Current
Resistance of a co...

Galileo Galilei was born on February 15, 1564 in
Pisa, Italy. Galileo pioneered "experimental
scientific method, " and was the first to use a
refracting telescope to make important
astronomical discoveries. In 1604 Galileo learned
of the invention of the telescope in Holland. From
the barest description he constructed a vastly
superior model. With it he made a series of
profound discoveries, including the moons of
planet Jupiter and the phases of the planet Venus
(similar to those of Earth's moo...

The Effects of Crude Protein on Antler Growth in
White Tailed Deer Introduction White tailed deer
go through drastic endocrine and physiological
changes during the year. Due to this reason, their
requirements for nutritional supplements are
changing quickly. However, the requirement for
crude protein seems to be very important for
antler growth and to allow optimal development.
The present study contains proposals to

Bioethics Advisory Commission Stem Cell Research

Stem Cell Therapy Recent progress in stem cell
research heated the debates on the issue of the
status and dignity of the human embryo. The
advances of stem cell therapy prompted a decision
by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to
fund stem cell research which, according to the
statement of Harold Varmus, depends on the
destruction of human embryos. These advances of
stem cell research and therapy and their support

Specific Heat Heat Energy
1,675 words
Mechanical Equivalent of Heat By: A. D. Haynes
[Abstract / Introduction ] Long before physicists
recognized that heat is a form of energy transfer
resulting from the random microscopic motion of
atoms, they defined heat in terms of the
temperature changes it produces in a body. The
traditional unit of heat is the calorie (cal),
which is the amount of heat needed to raise the
temperature of 1 g of water by 1 730; C. The
kilocalorie is 1000 cal: 1 kcal = 1000 cal.
Incidentally, the calories mar...

Inversely Proportional Power Supply

Parallel Plate Capacitor and Dielectrics Different
materials were placed in between the plates of a
parallel plate capacitor and the change in
capacitance for each of the materials was tested
using a galvanometer. The results were studied to
determine the dielectric constant for each of the
dielectric materials and to determine the
permittivity of air. By its self, results show
that the parallel plate capacitor? s capacitance
is inversely proportional to the distance between
the plates. This rel...
