The Bell Jar Cancer Versus Depression
1,962 wordsIntegrated into the story of The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath is a "case history" of a depression patient, from it's subtle beginnings to it's terrifying consequences to it's shaky resolution.

(Siebring, Richard, Page 32) Guillaume Amontons (d. 1705) developed the air thermometer, which uses the increase in the volume of a gas with temperature rather than the volume of a liquid. The air thermometer is an excellent demonstration of Charles' law because the atmosphere maintains a fixed downward pressure above a small mercury plug of consta...

Atomic Mass Mass Spectrometer
455 wordsThe moles beginning is traced back to the most basic units of matter, atoms. Since atoms are extremely small, scientists have perplexed a great deal over finding a way to measure atomic mass. They struggled to find a universal container that had the capability to mass atoms. Measuring the mass of one atom on a balance in grams is not practical, because the result in grams is an amount too small to be of any use in the laboratory. Fortunately, a new idea came about. If two or more same amounts of...

848 wordsCollege Math Rational Functions The function is rational when it can be represented as the quotient of polynomials. Actually, all polynomials are rational functions. Standard rational function can be described as follows: f (x) = g (x) /h (x). Both p and q are polynomials. G (x) is called the denominator, and p (x) is called the numerator. Asymptote for f (x) function represents a straight line that is approached but never reached by f (x) function. Lets examine three types of asymptotes: a) Ver...
