societal contributions of three of those mathematicians: Archimedes of Syracuse, Isaac Newton, and Leonhard Euler. Archimedes of Syracuse Archimedes was born in a Greek city-state of Syracuse, Sicily in 287 BC. He was killed during a Roman incursion in 212 BC during the Second Punic War. Archimedes was purportedly largely responsible for the defense of Syracuse as they held the Romans off for two years with the use of his war machines. Most of the information we currently have about Archimedes is
As a final example of the application of the Gauss-Newton method, we attempted to find the best fit for a set of data with a sinusoidal function. This example illustrates how the Gauss-Newton method can applied to functions with more that just two variables, and that it can be applied to an equation of any form. In it, will attempt to model temperature data with a sinusoidal function. Below is a chart of the average high temperatures per month of the city of Monroe Louisiana (courtesy of weather
Gravitational Slingshot The gravitational slingshot is a way that scientists have truly harnessed the gravitational pull of a planet by using it to launch satellites and other useful projectiles towards their desired locations. This method was developed through the use of Newton's Laws of Gravity and Kepler's Laws of Planetary Motion. When these ideas of gravity and the shape of a planet's orbit were brought together piece by piece, this new theory changed how a projectile traveling through space
acceptable level of accuracy. The hottest system has been chosen for this test because it will have the most kinetic energy and atoms will move the most. Therefore the system will be the most volatile and have the biggest uctuations from the mean energy value. Thus a time step at this high temperature will be as accurate or more at any lower temperature. Figure 1: Graph of temperature vs. Equilibration time. Initially there is a temperature peak which will inuence the accuracy of the data.

ulcers in six zones of the body: sensory perception, skin moisture, activity, mobility, nutrition, and friction/shear. Nurses and clinicians in settings such as acute, home, and long-term care places use this tool. There is no set time length to complete one of these assessments. The Braden Scale uses a score system where each item on the chart ranges from one to three or four; one signifying “highly impaired” and three/four signifying “no impairment”. The total amount of the score ranges from 6-23
Roman Acuna September 19, 2014 Abstract: The experimenters conducted a total of four mini labs. In each lab they had to find measurements dealing with different instruments such as a ruler, caliper, stopwatch, and two spring scales of different newtons. The objective in each experiment was to record and measure different objects and to also give advantages and uncertainties when dealing with different instruments. The experimenters found that each instrument comes with an uncertainty. When dealing

Preliminary Physics Assessment Task 1 Christos Toras MODELS OF THE UNIVERSE - TIMELINE From the time of Aristotle up until the time of Newton there were five models of what humans thought of the universe. The astronomers who developed these models were Aristotle, Ptolemy, Copernicus, Tycho Brahe, Kepler, Galileo and Newton. Aristotle’s model of the universe was a geocentric universe. This meant that the Earth was at the centre of the universe and that all stars were on a celestial sphere

Dudley-Brown Assistant Professor, University of Maryland School of Nursing, Department of Material and Clinical Health, Baltimore, Maryland, U.S.A. (Received 20 March 1995;revised 13 January 1996;accepted 11 March 1996) Abstract The profession of nursing has, in recent years, been trying to further develop, test and use proposed nursing theory. To utilize theory appropriately, in all domains
