1. Find the westward component of a resultant vector 85.42 unit, 23º W of N.

In this experiment, the signal generator was set so that the frequency meter showed a reading of 1,803 Hz. The microphone was moved to a distance from the speaker so that the oscilloscope displayed a straight diagonal line. This position was of the microphone was recorded as the initial position, or beginning of a wavelength. The microphone was then moved farther in the same direction until the oscilloscope displays the same horizontal line. This position was recorded as final position, or the end of the wavelength. The distance between the two positions represents one wavelength for this frequency. This was repeated for frequencies of 2,402 Hz, 3,002, Hz, 3,602 Hz, and 4,201 Hz.

I drew upon the common scenario in which a high school or college student is searching for a major or is unsure what to study. I described how others may be like myself and may not have the opportunity to be exposed to the field of mechanical engineering. This exposure to the field is quite important because these young and future engineers are the people that will develop the technology and innovations of the future. Then I concluded my introduction with my partitio.

Physics is the study of everything that matter and energy effect. Since all objects that take up space have energy, every object in the world is studied by physics. Physics deals a lot with forces, such as normal force, gravitational force, and frictional force. A simple example of these forces is a pen being dropped. The force acting on the pen is the gravitational force. There is no other object under the pen to keep it from falling, so the pen will keep falling until it hits the floor.

Engineers use critical thinking and creativity to solve problems, which mirrors the process I used to write algorithms for the labs or projects in the class. Attending two hackathons over the summer, I learned first-hand the creativity and collaboration necessary in the field of computer science, and successfully created an app in only 24 hours. The limitless possibilities to use my inventiveness and intellectual abilities to solve these problems is why I want to study computer science and engineering in college. As I will be attending UCLA, I want to apply my theoretical knowledge of computer science and engineering into real-world experience in the form of internships and co-op programs. While I have programmed apps and websites, I want to take my coding abilities to the next level, and begin to create complex system structures such as operating systems, as well as optimizing the hardware components, such as processors, for these systems. However, I intend to explore a multitude of academic topics in college, such as economics and statistics, and use my years to grow as an intellectual and

While programming in high school, I focused on analytically centric and math based classes. Of these,

For this academic year, I have participated in Altoona Honors Program and have taken Comm 374 and Math 414, which are associated with my minor and major, as honors options. Within these courses, I did some projects and challenging coursework. This experience inspires me to take more challenges. I learned to adapt to the intense learning pace. Also, I had lots of one-on-one time with professors, which let me explore deeper into the core of the subjects.

Our world today is reclaiming back all its old lost knowledge and using the same to help us in our lives and numerology is one of the oldest sciences from the time of Pythagoras.

When an object falls, many forces are acted upon it: gravity, friction, air resistance and, if in the water, up thrust. When an object starts to fall, gravity over powers air resistance, however, as an object starts to reach terminal velocity (its maximum speed) the opposite forces start to even out until they are equal. Some people believe that if the forces are balanced then the object has stopped moving, meanwhile they could also just be moving at a constant speed (its terminal velocity). All free-falling objects accelerate at the same speed no matter what their mass is (9.8m/s²).

We say an object is in free fall when the only force acting on it is the earth’s gravitational force.

In this lab a car was created of our own making. The purpose of this lab was to use the tools given to us to create a self propelled car with speed attempting to reach the greatest distance possible. Physics is relatable to this lab because the success for this car requires the use of engineered force resulting in the distance and speed components coming to play. The amount of materials used to make the car has a definite influence in the car’s mass, likewise effecting the acceleration. How smoothly the wheels coincide with the floor will depict the amount of friction being created which as well connects back to acceleration. Physics endeavors those key elements therefore creating a relationship with this lab. Having said this, the basis of this lab reflects the very fundamentals physics is based on.

For example, following the classification societies’ rulebooks is the conventional way to design a safe vessel. But sometimes due to design inadequacy, which class rules do not instruct, some weaker points remain over the structure, and those can result in severe structural failure during operation life of the vessel. With the help of advanced technology, it's possible to make the structure more reliable without making any significant change. Through graduate studies, based on my academic and current research skills, I firmly believe that I will be able to work on some gaps. I feel strong interests to carry out studies in the field of Finite Element Method, Stress based structural investigation, Computational Solid Mechanics and also in Mechanics of materials. While my undergraduate studies provided me a solid foundation, I need to study deeper on these subjects to explore researching on structural engineering and also to mark an impact on the further research

n the early 20th century it was discovered that particle such as the electron could be in two locations simultaneously . The behaviour of these particles is governed by quantum mechanics, a set of outlandish physical laws. Laws that allow these particles to be in an infinite number of states at a time, allowing them to be be in an infinite number of locations with an infinite range of characteristics simultaneously. However, can this observed behaviour be applied to actual people? It seems strange to think that I am in many places at one time but I will be exploring the implications of this if this is the case.

In short, quantum mechanics is ‘a mathematical framework that plays a huge role in modern physics and chemistry’. It was interpreted in many ways, however the Copenhagen Interpretation was the most widely held view, largely developed by Danish physicist Neils Bohr who worked in Copenhagen. The framework can be applied to different scientific phenomena and can be used to investigate the behaviour of the building blocks of the universe, all elementary particles. The complex mathematics is useful for these particles as they act in ways classical physics cannot explain. [1]
