Preliminary Work I started my preliminary work because, when I started my measurements using 2 coils used in experiments to deflect electrons from and electron gun. While testing for the deflection of beta particles, I found that beta radiation was scattered in a very large cone, I can not get any readings with amount of beta radiation scattering. So I would have to construct some type of shielding for this i...

Why Sonic Should Promote Its Advertising Effort
1,874 wordsYes Sonic should use advertising to promote its product. Advertising is a cost effective way to disseminate messages, whether, for example, to build brand preference for Coca-Cola or to educate people to avoid hard drugs. Therefore, Sonic should advertise its shelf-stereos to simply make the consumer more aware of the existence of such products. In advertising their shelf-stereo, Sonic must first identify a target market for their products and design an advertisement suitable for that market. In...

All of these factors combine to make the poplar a successful plant that can adapt to almost every habitat. The poplar is very light dependent; it needs lots of light for its leaves to achieve enough photosynthesis so growth can occur properly. Poplar roots are shallow, especially on wet soils. Most poplars may have extensions called root ...

Although the Greeks had the means of producing the necessary motion, the shape and intricacy of an "armillary sphere clock" may have prevented rigorous experimentation until the development of stereography. Until the development of stereography by Hipparchos in the middle of the second century BC. , the Greeks measured time with various types of water clocks. The most...

Solid State Lasers Beam Of Light
1,749 wordsL A S E R S Did you know that some laser beams are small enough and powerful enough to drill two hundred holes on a spot as tiny as the head of a pin? The first major advancement in laser development came in 1954. This was the year that Charles H. Townes, an American physicist, created a device that amplified microwaves. This device was actually called a maser at first, which was short for Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation Masers. It produced microwaves of just one freq...

Bunsen Burner Hydrochloric Acid
762 wordsThe Problem: I am going to find out how temperature can affect the rate of reaction. Background information: Factors that change the rates of reactions are: ? Temperature? an increase in temperature will make the reaction occur faster. This happens because the particles of that substance move faster when it is heated. Because the particles move faster, they would collide more, making the reaction rate faster. ? Concentration? the increase in concentration, the greater and faster the reaction. Th...

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 ...
