Speed Of Light Time Of Day
1,333 wordsOur view of the sky at night is possible because of the emission and reflection of light. 'Light' is the better-known term for the electromagnetic spectrum, which includes waves in the visible, ultra-violet, infra-red, microwave, radio, X-ray and gamma-ray regions. The scale of the spectrum is so large that no region is distinct, several overlap each other. Each of these regions in the electromagnetic spectrum represent transverse waves, travelling as electrical and magnetic fields which interac...

Salem Witch Trials Put To Death
1,706 wordsThe evidence of witchcraft and related works has been around for many centuries. Gradually, though, a mixture a religious, economical, and political reasons instigated different periods of fear and uncertainty among society. Witchcraft was thought of as a connection to the devil that made the victim do evil and strange deeds. (Sutter par. 1) In the sixteenth, seventeenth, and twentieth century, the hysteria over certain causes resulted in prosecution in the Salem Witch Trials, European Witchcraf...

Detector Amplifier Hybrids Te Cooled Detector Amplifier Hybrids Dia
425 wordsCooling In many cases IR detectors are cooled during use. This cooling effects the spectral response, responsibilty and response speed. Spectral response characteristics of PbS, Pb Se, and HgCdTe (MCT) shift to the long wavelength side with cooling while Ge, In As and In Sb shift to the short wavelength side. Also, note that the response speeds of PbS and Pb Se become slower with cooling. Methods of cooling include thermoelectric cooling and dewar cooling using dry ice, liquid nitrogen, etc. The...

H R Diagram Main Sequence Stars Absolute
527 wordsThe Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram or, the H-R Diagram for short, is a graph which plots stars according to their temperature and absolute magnitude. This graph reveals a pattern, which in fact is quite interesting. The H-R Diagram is named for the two astronomers, Ear Hertzsprung and Henry Russell, who discovered this pattern of stars. These two astronomers independently discovered that comparing magnitudes and spectral class (color) of stars yielded a lot of information about them. One key purpos...

Earthquake Loads Resistant Design Of Buildings
2,074 words... Spectra are developed by calculating the of response a single mass oscillator (usually with 5 % critical damping present) to the design level earthquake motion. Engineers traditionally have shown a preference for acceleration spectra, since the resulting coefficient, when multiplied by the seismic mass, results in the lateral base shear for the building. In Australia [ 7 ] and the Uniformed Building Code used in the western USA [ 9 ] these spectra are presented as a simple uniform coefficien...

F X S 2
866 wordsTo avoid confusion, it is customary to write the Fourier transform and its inverse so that they exhibit reversibility: F (s) = f (x) exp (-i 2 xs) dx f (x) = F (s) exp (i 2 xs) ds so that f (x) = f (x) exp (-i 2 xs) dx exp (i 2 xs) ds as long as the integral exists and any discontinuities, usually represented by multiple integrals of the form [f (x+) + f (x-) ], are finite. There are functions for which the Fourier transform does not exist; however, most physical functions have a Fourier transfo...

In Derrida Specters Of Marx
755 wordsDerrida's discussion of the relevance of Marxism in his book was long awaited. It was the first attempt to discuss Marxist politics from a different prospective. My attempt was to summarize arguments and to give the main idea of thoughts of Derrida. However, it is hard to describe all the beautiful deferred and differed meanings carefully established by Derrida. The author wanted to remind us in a unique playful way about the connections between Marx and Shakespeare. Derrida's book possessed sen...

York John Wiley F X
2,792 wordsFourier Analysis Fourier analysis of spatial and temporal visual stimuli has become common in the last 35 years. For many people interested in vision but not trained in mathematics this causes some confusion. The use of these Fourier methods does not mean that the visual system performs a Fourier analysis. At present it should be understood that this approach is a convenient way to analyze visual stimuli. Jean Baptiste Fourier, a mathematician, showed that any repetitive waveform can be broken d...

Kilometers In Diameter Mitral Valve
1,169 wordsReading Response Researchers have now concluded that a heart defect, called mitral valve prolapse is not as dangerous as it was previously pronounced. The defect is far less common and dangerous, only effecting about 5 percent of Americans. The syndrome, which is caused by the mitral valve flaps becoming elongated and floppy, letting blood flow backwards into the heart chamber. The defect may require surgery to prevent sudden death, stroke, heart failure, and abnormal heart rhythms that cause fa...
