Analysis Of The Human Cultural Identity
931 wordsAnalysis of the Human Cultural Identity This paper is intended to contain the analysis of the human cultural identity, as seen in the following five historical cultural periods: Enlightenment Culture; Greco-Roman Culture; Judeo-Christian Culture; Renaissance-Reformation Culture; and Industrialization-Modernism Culture. It also embodies examples of each era that are clearly stated, and how they relate The cultural identity of the Enlightenment can be described as emphasizing the possibilities of ...

Subatomic Particles Quantum Mechanics
756 wordsQuantum Mechanics is the science of subatomic particles and their behavior patterns that are observed in nature. As the foundation of scientific knowledge approached the start of the twentieth century, problems began to arise over the fact that classic physical ideas were not capable of explaining the observed behavior of subatomic particles. In 1913, the Danish physicist Neil's Bohr, proposed a successful quantum model of the atom that began the process of a more defined understanding of its su...

Theory Of Relativity Werner Heisenberg
2,209 wordsWerner Heisenberg, born in the dawn of the twentieth century became one of its greatest physicists; he is also among its most controversial. While still in his early twenties, he was among the handful of bright, young men who created quantum mechanics, the basic physics of the atom, and he became a leader of nuclear physics and elementary particle research. He is best known for his uncertainty principle, a component of the so-called Copenhagen interpretation of the meaning, and uses of quantum m...

Werner Heisenberg And The Uncertainty Principle
2,213 words... t dealt with observed frequencies and intensities of emitted and absorbed light, and in doing it enabled a momentous breakthrough in physics, ensuring Heisenberg's place in modern physics. Heisenberg then laid the groundwork for the new theoretical "matrix mechanics." The next semester, Heisenberg wrote a paper on the topic but was not sure if he should publish it. He gave it to Born to read, and while he was away at Cambridge, England Born sent the paper to the "Zeitschrift fr Physik", a le...

Academy Of Sciences Quantum Mechanics
1,357 wordsPaul Adrien Maurice Dirac Patrick Ennis Mrs. Carter Research Monday, December 9, 1996 Physical Laws should have mathematical beauty. This statement was Dirac's response to the question of his philosophy of physics, posed to him in Moscow in 1955. He wrote it on a blackboard that is still preserved today Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac (1902 - 1984), known as P. A. M. Dirac, was the fifteenth Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge. He shared the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1933 with Erwin Schrod...

Werner Heisenberg Atomic Bomb
4,243 wordsFriends and mortal enemies When I wrote Copenhagen, about the German physicist Werner Heisenberg's visit to Niels Bohr, the Danish physicist, in 1941, I thought it unlikely that anyone would want to produce it. Even if I sometimes hoped I might find some small theatre somewhere that would take it on, I cant remember ever thinking that anyone would come to see it, much less have strong views about it. The successful run in London from 1998 to 2001, unexpected and gratifying as it was, passed peac...

Quantum Mechanics Quantum Physics
1,568 wordsWhile researching quantum physics, I realized that I had just finished a book that was based on quantum theory. At the time, I didn t quite realize that quantum theory and quantum physics were related except in name. Niels Bohr once said, Anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it. He believed this because quantum physics makes the common laws of classical physics false on small scales. First, quantum physics is the physics of the incredibly small. It tries to explain the ...
